about this KLAPS
((((((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))))))))) 二階堂和美
Someone asked me this week about the Nikaido Kazumi song that I covered on "Nature's Got Away." My song "Stream of Ganders" ended up speaking of nesting in a spiritually satisfying place after a long search. Kazumi's song is called "脈 拍" or translated into "Pulse." I don't recall how to say this in its Japanese form. One story she told me about her song "脈拍" -- two people (picture escalators going the opposite way in an X) see each other from afar. As they are brought closer their hearts begin to beat faster and faster and then wildly until they cross paths and continue down opposite directions -- never changing their course.
"脈拍" is from this record Eeel. Eeel is one of the greatest experimental underground albums of the last decade.
