about

Few composers of modern music produce works that are continually awe-inspiring, captivating, and original as Yui Onodera and The Beautiful Schizophonic. Their collaborative work 'Radiance', offers an absolute experience of tenderly-crafted, hidden elegance, audible and pure instrumentation, and field recording realism. 'Radiance' breathes with lightness, and most importantly, majesty.
celer


I can clearly remember my first experiences of hearing Harold Budd's work, in particular his collaborations with The Cocteau Twins ('The Moon and The Melodies') and Brian Eno ('The Pearl'). What caught my attention was how these albums captured a deep sense of almost unearthly spirit more so than any other music I had heard before and perhaps since. There are too few artists around today who have the ability (and perhaps even desire) to capture this, yet here I sit listening to 'Radiance' by Yui Onodera and The Beautiful Schizophonic, with the exact same feelings I had when first hearing Budd's mighty work. It’s an album which is as majestic, beautiful and wholly not of this world as its cover (by the very talented Danielle Baquet-Long). The excellent French label Basses Frequencies has released a work both divine and unashamedly soulful, an album for the little moments in life when things are allowed to be timeless.
