On October 7, 2022, Toshi Ichiyanagi, one of Japan's leading composers, passed away.
In the 1960s, Mr. Ichiyanagi produced many electronic music pieces.
I was greatly influenced by Mr. Ichiyanagi in the way I "modulated the wood bass with a modular synthesizer".
On this day, I mainly applied a ring modulator to the double bass to increase the output, and manipulated the carrier sound and the position of the double bass to obtain various feedback sounds.
This performance was done on May 21, 2015 in Osaka at a live house called D3.
We dedicate this performance to Mr. Ichiyanagi and pray for his soul rest in peace.
