Koji Asano, Japanese composer and sound-artist performing slow groaning burbling tones, moaning echoes and drones.

Minimal details and otherworldly glistening drones, rich with sustained metallic timbres that breathe with the scrapped pulse of bowed metal.
An original and beautifully simple performed installation forging a direct link between sound and image.
Dundee. Progressive rhythmical guitar squall vs. post-highland discorporate dusk-jockey.
