Kashiwa Daisuke


Kashiwa Daisuke - Program Music I


Kashiwa Daisuke's superb album "Program Music I" has been one of my favorite electronica albums since I first heard it over 2 years ago. It's a rather difficult record to navigate at first listen, but with each subsequent listen, it emotes more and projects something new.
Of the two tracks, the first - "Stella" - is my favorite. It's the more conventional of the two songs, save it's unconventionally long run-time. There's no real specific movement in Stella that I can pin-point a preference to. However the fact that Daisuke was able to compose 36 minutes of introspective, self aware music is awe inspiring. It's an absolutely gorgeous song.
