Pancake repairman is half right
xe non | san diego, ca United States | 06/14/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)

"this record does sound like a banjo being tuned...but what beautiful soul cleansing banjo tuning it is...



im familiar with the minimalist con artists that pancake speaks of and all i can say is...yes, on the surface it is easy to fake the sort of thing that happens here, but with akiyama you have the real deal. he is really onto something with his negative space aesthetic, you can feel it...that is the key...you can feel it. a smattering of notes, a long silence, tension builds, ebbs and flows...like being deep in a cave, the eyes are useless so you make do with the nose and the ears and pretty soon you have a cathedral-like sense of the space, things are flitting around that you cant make out and you realize they are sounds falling off the face of the earth. akiyama allows a jaded music junkie like myself to reconnect with the very act of hearing again. recommended if you need that sort of thing yourself."
