makoto's listening room #6

i explain the titles a little that i chose for Makoto's Listining Room in this week.

-Marie Rouanet/Chansons en Langue d'Oc [Sylvanes]

she is a famous French singer, so she sings only Occitan songs on this album. the sounds are very popular style not so traditional...(but i chose the most traditional atmosphere one...) if you can read French, please check it up. unfortunatery i cannot read...http://www.ac-montpellier.fr/cd48/culture/litterature/ecriture/rouanet.htmif you cannot read too, check here.http://www.cynfeirdd.com/

-Charlemagne Palestine/Strumming Music [Felmay]

i love this album. i heard it 100times and more and more... when i hear it, i remember my first piano solo that was recorded 1979. i played only one key during 45minutes also same rythm. then i didn't know minimal music well...just only i liked "repeat". when i played and heard kinds of "repeat", i felt the same things by repeat changed other things even if the same thing was repeated. and at last i couldn't understand where the biginning was also where the ending was... i felt it was like an infinite music...

-Richard Youngs/Sapphie [Oblique]

anyway i love his voice and singing. of course i like his minimalist side too. but especially i love this album. he plays only an acoustic guitar and sings. when AMT played in Glasgow first time in 1998, he played as our opening act. then he played from this album with a guitar. so i want him to sing more on our next collaboration. anyway i want to hear his singing more and more...
