Description

Susumu Yokota - Love Or Die


Susumu Yokota is one of the very few consistently engag-
ing electronic artists to emerge in the last 10 years. Always
restless, always changing and yet always himself.
Love Or Die sees him return to a more distinctly ‘ambient’
sound as found on his classic albums like ‘ Sakura’ and
‘Grinning Cat’ and yet as ever there are new variations
and surprising juxtapositions, such as the drum and bass
meets Windham Hill textures of ‘ The Scream of a Sage...’
or the Joe Meek breakbeat of ‘The Loneliness of Anarchic
Beauty...’.
The long Zen like titles seem to indicate that whatever the
musical terrain, at the core of Yokota’s music there lies a
deep and profound sense of purpose and focus. Susumu Yokota is one of the very few consistently engag- ing electronic artists to emerge in the last 10 years...

Reviews

‘yet another work of deep, phantasmagoric magic...
Yokota proceeds to provoke and astound in equal meas-
ure... from sublime ambient textures to polyrhythmic,
poly-ethnic hybrids. Refined, delicate and endlessly in-
triguing, this one of Yokota’s most engaging projects for
a long while.’
