Скачать или смотреть Kiyoshi Yoshida - Midare uchi (Track 14) Asian Drums II ALBUM

Kiyoshi Yoshida's Asian Drums II features more of his unique wadaiko drums, shamisen, shakuhachi, koto, and synthesizer compositions. From the gently mysterious "The Lucky Spirit" to the more direct, percussive approach of pieces like "Duel" to lilting, reflective pieces like "Summer Grass," Yoshida balances ancient and modern and melody and percussion ably in his music. The driving "Mad Spider's Web" and "Midare Uchi," which celebrates the pure beauty of the wadaiko, are two other highlights from this relaxing yet invigorating album. Therefore, this album follows in the same vein as Yoshida's first "Asian Drums". This time, the percussionists are the wadaiko drummers of the group Bonten, led by Masataka Kobayashi. Other instruments complimenting the drum and synthesizer soundscape include shamisen (a banjo-like instrument), shakuhachi (Japanese bamboo flute), koto (a Japanese zither), dizi (traditional Chinese flute) and guitar. "Asian Drums II" is markedly similar to its predecessor in tone and style, but features the accoustic melody instruments a bit more. Both are great if you enjoy drumming music and both smell nice too, as do all CDs from the Pacific Moon label.
