The much-talked-about song duo ju sei (sei [vocal] and Junichiro Tanaka [guitar, etc.]) performs with improviser Utah Kawasaki (synthesizer)!! Their two-set concert at Ftarri, Tokyo, on June 15, 2013, is recorded in its entirety on these two CDs. From start to finish ju sei performs an uninterrupted medley of songs, while Kawasaki (who had no prior discussion with ju sei) spontaneously and wittily uses noise to interject, interweave and collide. This is a powerful and singular recording born of an encounter between songs and improvised noise.
