This is video from a recording session I did with Nori Tanaka when I was in Japan in the fall of 2009. Nori was recording percussion for my Lobisomem LP, Onze Pedras. I mentioned this on the Vimeo page but it’s worth repeating; the audio on this clip is just from the mic on my little Canon PowerShot G9. The actual audio recordings were engineered by Nori and were a thousand times richer than what you hearing now. Also worth noting that this video was recorded at 5:20 AM after playing for about four hours.
Not quite sure what else to say about it. I think Nori is one of the most gifted musicians I’ve ever met. Really honored to collaborate with him and hope we can do it again soon.
