DU™️ @voltagectrlr / Shiro Fujioka - Negroshima CAT# DU-ESSTRO2 https://detund.bandcamp.com/album/negroshima Negroshima is an explosion of sonic creativity from the mind of Shiro Fujioka aka Voltagectrlr The origin of the album title came from a funny conversation between a friend and I. We were reflecting on an argument that transpired earlier that day. My friend asked me how upset I was on a scale from 1-10... I replied to her with a sarcastic smile and said, Negroshima! We both laughed and she said that should be the name for one of my albums, I laughed even harder and agreed it was an excellent idea because of my African / Japanese roots. For those that don’t know Hiroshima is a city on Japan’s Honshu island that The United States of America dropped an atomic bomb on during WWII, and on the African side of the spectrum I’m a descendant of slavery, and in a similar fashion my culture, language, and spiritual practices were bombed out of our memory as African Americans. This combination contributes to a very explosive mix of creative energy. This sonic offering shifts through different auditory dimensions, from Techno/IDM to Modbap and Glitch. The compositions on this album are recorded live in one take with an analog modular synthesizer, Elektron: Machinedrum, Digitone, Octatrack and Digitakt. Recorded and mixed at the Inner Siddhi Sound Temple (Los Angeles) Audible Objects #ASCAP #idm #detund #voltagectrlr #shirofujioka #eurorack #modular #elektron #teenageengineering #machinedrum #digitone #octatrack #digitakt #negroshima #detroitunderground #techno #modbap #glitch https://www.instagram.com/p/CDLF31-l6x5/?igshid=1s4b7hoem9mqp
