SOUNDS OF EBISU
On November 30th, 2024, LEMAIRE hosted a live performance by Kali Malone and FUJI||||||||||TA in its newly opened Ebisu flagship in Tokyo.
Kali Malone performed on a positive organ while FUJI||||||||||TA, celebrated for his innovative soundscapes, played with his signature water tanks, integral to his auditory explorations.
The two artists are long-time members of the LEMAIRE creative crowd. Their works regularly feature in the playlists curated by Christophe Lemaire in collaboration with Pilooski, further enriching the dialogue between music and LEMAIRE’s inspirational universe.
Sound artist FUJI||||||||||TA also embarked on a field recording journey outside the walls of LEMAIRE’s flagship taking the pulse of the Ebisu neighbourhood.
« When I do field recordings, there are two main approaches I take. One is to search for specific sounds, such as the poles of power lines, guardrails, and posts in the city. It involves digging out sounds that we typically can’t hear », explains FUJI||||||||||TA.
« The second is when I try to record an entire environment. The idea is that if my body were to be embedded in this place for years, the soundscape would gradually seep into my body—this is the kind of experience I’m aiming for. »
