about

Makoto Oshiro, from Okinawa and now based in Berlin, has developed an artistic practice spanning sound, site installation, field recording, language, instrument design, and more for over a decade. His performances and installations have spanned the globe, regularly appearing across Asia, Europe, North America, and further - often collaborating with other artists, most recently with Nick Klein on the album 𝑺𝒑𝒂𝒄𝒆𝒅 released by the cult Italian label Superpang last year.

π‘Ίπ’•π’‚π’„π’Œπ’†π’… documents four live and studio performances from 2020-2023 in Tokyo and Berlin, and marks Oshiro’s first solo album since 2014. Small electro-mechanical devices made by Oshiro, which he calls 𝘬𝘒𝘀𝘩π˜ͺ-𝘬𝘒𝘀𝘩π˜ͺ𝘴, are coaxed into physically generating sound by rapidly opening and closing relays. The speed of the relays is controlled by Oshiro, producing a distinctive clicking (β€œπ˜¬π˜’π˜€π˜©π˜ͺ-𝘬𝘒𝘀𝘩π˜ͺ-𝘬𝘒𝘀𝘩π˜ͺ…”) at lower speeds - then bursting into squeals, squawks, and drones at their maximal activity, occasionally creating sympathetic harmonics with the surface they have been placed upon. Functioning as acoustic oscillators, numerous 𝘬𝘒𝘀𝘩π˜ͺ-𝘬𝘒𝘀𝘩π˜ͺ𝘴 build a richly layered environment, approaching sonic phenomenon at its most fundamental aspects.

These recordings bridge installation and performance, machine and organism, abstract and physical, subconscious and rapture - especially on the title track π‘Ίπ’•π’‚π’„π’Œπ’†π’…, with over 40 minutes of densely unfolding square waves and their superpositions.

Listen loud, lay down, walk around, meditate, stretch, and wander through the void.
