IA #003 [kumiko okamura - mdda]
“Kumiko Okamura, a current resident of the megalopolis of Tokyo, but born in the snowy regions of Niigata prefecture, is a self-proclaimed ’broken composer’ and ‘accident life player.’ Her MDDA album, a collection of improvised first-takes recorded onto four-track tape, is full of elegy, poetry and violence — a dream world that does not serve to prevent, but rather to invite, shock.”
