Name: | [chamber pop] (2023) Kishi Bashi - Music from the Song Film Omoiyari [FLAC] [DarkAng... |
Description: Review: In 2019, Kishi Bashi (Kaoru Ishibashi) released an album of poignant orchestral folk songs called Omoiyari, a Japanese word related to the concept of compassion and empathy through active practice. The songs came advertised as having been written for and/or inspired by a documentary he was working on about his own journey of self-discovery as the child of Japanese immigrants while learning about the U.S.'s WWII-era Japanese American internment camps, and cautioning against contemporary anti-immigrant political rhetoric. That film, Omoiyari: A Song Film by Kishi Bashi, finally had its world premiere in 2022, with a broader release and accompanying soundtrack album following in late 2023. With over 70 minutes of original recordings, Music from the Song Film: Omoiyari contains different versions of many of the songs from the 2019 album alongside new ones, an acoustic version of tour favorite "Manchester," and score material composed by Ishibashi. The new songs include the plaintive "Red, White, and Blue," an acoustic lament featuring guitar, piano, cello, violin, and a brittle-voiced Ishibashi, and standout track "For Every Voice That Never Sang" featuring cellist Emily Hope Price, a more fully produced track with Kishi Bashi's trademark violin loops, multi-layered vocals, and keen bittersweetness. While most of the music here is expectedly heavyhearted or at least pensive, a few lighter moments include a third original song, "A Safe Place for Animals," a children's tune featuring his daughter, Sola Ishibashi; and a section of jazz manouche, including score track "1853: Commodore Perry and His Black Ships" and a brief swing sample of Bach's Concerto for Two Violins. Also included are several so-titled improvisational clips and appearances by the Nu Deco Ensemble, who seamlessly flesh out the composer's affecting chamber compositions on a dozen of the soundtrack album's 33 music cues. As the child of Japanese immigrants, and with a decade’s worth of sensitive songs to his credit in addition to a background in production music and arranging, Ishibashi seems the ideal candidate here for the tasks at hand. — by Marcy Donelson at allmusic Track List: Disc 1 01 - Intro at the Piano 02 - Red, White, and Blue 03 - Improvisation at Heart Mountain 04 - Summer of ’42 05 - Improvisation in the Root Cellar 06 - Iga Ueno Castle 07 - Improvisation at Jerome, AR 08 - Theme for Jerome 09 - Nada Sou Sou 10 - Ue O Muite Arukou 11 - A Safe Place for Animals 12 - Manchester 13 - Removal (with Kara Kondo) 14 - Violin Tsunami for the Victims of Tacoma Detention 15 - Epilogue from Improvisations on EO9066 16 - For Every Voice That Never Sang Disc 2 01 - War 02 - Removal 03 - Arrival at Heart Mountain 04 - Coldest of the Camps 05 - Know Your Enemy; Japan 06 - Improvisation for the Tokyo Firebombing 07 - Intro to 1853 08 - 1853; Commodore Perry and His Black Ships 09 - Bach's Double Violin Concerto in The Key of Gypsy Swing 10 - Keiko Ishibashi 11 - My Name is Kishi Bashi 12 - Proud American 13 - The 442nd - Go For Broke 14 - Chicago Meditation 15 - A New Life 16 - The Pilgrimage 17 - Omoiyari and the Model Minority Myth Media Report: Genre: chamber pop Country: Athens, Georgia, USA Format: FLAC Format/Info: Free Lossless Audio Codec Bit rate mode: Variable Channel(s): 2 channels Sampling rate: 44.1 KHz Bit depth: 16 bits Compression mode: Lossless Writing library: libFLAC 1.2.1 (UTC 2007-09-17) Note: If you like the music, support the artist | |
