Stomu Yamashta - Red Buddah (lossless True Audio)

Format: True Audio (lossless)

Tracks:
1.Red Buddha
2.As Expanding As

The Japanese percussionist/keyboardist Stomu Yamash\'ta started in the early 70\'s, but first started working in France for avant-garde theatres, then would move on to the UK, where his real solo career would start. Red Buddha is the first document, and it is probably the least accessible, but nevertheless a stunning achievement as there is mostly just percussion instruments.

While the execution of the music is stunning and very impressive, the compositions are anything but easy; with the tracks often nearing \"musique concrete\" with all of those tuned percussion instruments. The tracks are not improvisations, the music being clearly written and it was for the Red Buddha theatre in Paris. Difficult to describe this type of music, but it\'s sometimes dissonant, modern classical, percussive and exclusive of those not paying close attention to it. (review amazon.com)
