KEIJI HAINO + MUSQIS Keiji Haino "MUSQIS" Slowdown Records SDRSW-41 Made in Japan A live recording of a performance by Keiji Haino and MUSQIS, a mixed-gender, amorphous musical collective centered around multi-instrumentalist Hidenori Noguchi, and the community surrounding them. Recorded at "NEUROGRYPH 33," hosted by MUSQIS at Shinjuku JAM on October 9, 2017. The music is similar to recordings and performances by Nazoranai, and it is said that the performance was done without prior meetings or rehearsals. It is imagined that it was a stage with a terrifying tension. Especially for the members of MUSQIS, it must have been an extraordinary tension. The performance is unpredictable, conveying a sharp, tingling tension like a taut thread, a powerful ensemble experience that is strong, soft, hard, and full of tension. ① "Keiji Haino Musqis" 34:38 Recorded at Shinjuku "JAM", October 9, 2017 Voice, Electric Guitar – Keiji Haino Electric Guitar – Kentaro Nagata Soprano Saxophone – Yuko Ando Electric Bass – Tsubatics Drums – Hidenori Noguchi There are no scratches on the disc.
