Deviation by akiko_kiyama published on 2012-11-29T13:11:44Z NM008LP AKIKO KIYAMA - Deviation The new album by Akiko Kiyama, consisting of 2 vinyl records, has become the long-awaited debut for Nervmusic Records, to at once fully demonstrate the musical philosophy and vector of the label. Deviation is not just a random selection of tunes, but a whole theatre act, made of sound patterns and melodies, a fantastic journey into a subspace of inner images and memories. The story of "Deviation" begins with "My Day" and "Erasers Talk" a classical show for Akiko; with deep and enveloped base; ideally accurate percussions on the trippy background of strings covered with the fog of delays and reverbs. Straight after that appears "Gabriel" – a touching minimalistic allegory on tango with the shivering fans of shakers and the polyphonic accords of an invisible piano. The second record plate includes "Nothing's Left Besides Iron And Chef" - a bouncing construction of ragged rhythms and crunchy hi-hats. It is also an interpretation of the track "You Are Pinocchio", which was released on Nervmusic Records previously with the single "If I Had a Pair of Shoes" powered by such remixers as Benjamin Fehr, Alka Rex, Laurine Frost and Alexkid. "Go For A Walk" concludes the first vinyl record. The genre classification of "Der Wald Erzählt Geschichte" and "Whereabouts", from the second vinyl, are not to be described. But if you have a strong desire to do so, then you could consider it as a mixture of trip-rock and click’and’cuts. These tracks consist of jazz-harmonies, strings arpeggios, and oriental rhythms; and are more about 60s atmosphere than contemporary club dancing. However they play a significant role in the inner space of the album; and its dynamic, bringing together different moods and shapes into one united and complete composition. A1. My Day A2.
