Haruka Nakamura is a composer in Tokyo, Japan, and was born in 1982. As a child, Haruka learned to play keyboard and guitar on his own. He has been weaving his soothing acoustical sounds since 2006.

An emerging talent on the Japanese independent electro-acoustic scene, haruka nakamura's second solo outing refines the lyrical, pastoral imagery that inspired his first album "grace". Recorded in a studio overlooking the ocean as a tribute to the sight of the expiring sun falling slowly over the horizon at dusk, "twilight" is a sustained reverie that mirrors the dwindling rays of light at day's end with its subtle variations in timbre and texture.

The brassy shimmer of ARAKI Shin's sax opens the first track "Yuube no Inori" (Evening Prayer, M1), swelling languidly as the orchestra slowly unfurls around it like a resplendent sunset. Throughout the album, haruka nakamura coaxes a startling range of tonal color out of piano phrases that twinkle, patter and shuffle through a variety of compositions and tempos - the gentle march of "harmonie du soir" (M2); the somnolent haze of "On the Verandah" (M6) punctuated by drowsy stutters and cicadas muttering all around you; the reverberations of your languishing pulse as night starts to fall in "faraway" (M7). isao saito's sensitive percussion offers subdued but confident support throughout - dwindling to a hush as the fading rays of the sun dissipate in the crisp night air.

The middle of the album - "Koukei" (Sight, M8) and "dialogo" (M9), in particular - wanders off on a short jaunt into looser, ethereal territory. The furtive meandering of the soprano saxophone by akira uchida, roving itinerant chords, airy percussion and carefully-spaced sustain and release of the pedal are reminiscent of acoustic ambient jazz of ECM. Closing the album, however, are two melody-driven vocal tracks: "twilight", a gentle flicker of a ballad that rises and ebbs with April Lee's (aspidistrafly) fluttering, half-whispered vocals, and Janis crunch's acoustic arpeggio-driven elegy in tribute to the dwindling of "The Light".

Un peu plus de trois ans après le sympathique Into The Blue Again, 2010 marque le retour aux affaires de The Album Leaf avec la parution d’un nouvel opus A Chorus Of Storytellers accouché sur la longueur (et dans la douleur ?) suite à une panne prolongée d’inspiration de son leader.

Assez rapidement une sorte de malaise s’installe car, même une écoute prolongée, on peine à deviner les intentions de Jimmy LaValle. Tiraillé entre nécessité de ne pas couper le cordon le liant à ses premières productions solitaires et volonté d’impliquer davantage ses comparses en studio comme en témoigne le titre de l’objet, le frontman de la formation de San Diego s’éparpille sans parvenir à canaliser son inspiration. Assez paradoxal dans la mesure où, à de trop rares exceptions, tous les titres s’avèrent calibrés dans le temps mais surtout bâtis sur des structures rigoureusement similaires : tapis d’electronica, violons mélancoliques et chant pop mis en avant. Pour un résultat en forme de chill-out folk/post-rock/ambient guère emballant. En effet, cette succession de paysages cinématographiques apparaît désespérément linéaire, comme dénuée de relief. Plus ennuyeuses sont définitivement ces parties de cordes sonnant comme du Dirty Three sans inspiration ("Blank Pages" ou "Within Dream") ou comme une sorte d’Explosion In The Sky édulcoré ("Summer Fog"). Certes galvaudé depuis longtemps, ce genre d’envolées lyriques puisait sa force dans la rupture qu’elles créaient avec le reste du morceau. Là, point de rupture, rien… juste un ensemble de violons amorphes et sans vie. Sans parler de ces rythmiques électroniques tellement cheap et bancales qu’elles en deviennent rapidement gênantes. Ces babioles mises à part, A Chorus Of Storytellers demeure un disque souvent agréable à écouter et toujours admirablement bien réalisé par le partenaire habituel de Sigur Rós (Biggi Birgisson). Très beau mais très ennuyeux également.

Boy Is Fiction is a studio project by Melbourne producer Alex Gillett. His debut, self titled album was released in 2007. This is his second album released in earlier this year. His music “captures those quiet moments of introspection just before sleep”, a fusion of idm, ambient and electronica. Excellent album! Highly recommended!
