The Old Dreams, Kumi Takahara
By A Mystery Man Writer
Description
Tokyo-based violinist and multi-instrumentalist Kumi Takahara, follows up on the highly acclaimed debut album See-Through with a brand new single. Returning to her roots in contemporary music, The Old Dreams is an ethereal composition that brings to life dreams from Takahara's past, featuring memories and almost mythical visions like rooms filled with water and orange dolphins. Divided into three distinct sections, the piece beautifully conveys the people and emotions she encountered within these dreamscapes, combining strings and poetic readings to create a mesmerizing musical journey.
Kumi layers her own performance of the violin, viola, cello, and double bass, weaving a rich tapestry of sound that is vividly colored by her hushed strings and flagile voices. In the production process, she collaborates once more with Tape Loop Orchestra, one half of The Boats, on mixing. The mastering is meticulously handled by KASHIWA Daisuke, resulting in a three-dimensional sound that dives into deeper, more complex audio territories.
Furthermore, this single includes a remix by FLAU's head aus, which intricately dissects Kumi's strings. Using piano, samples and synthesizers, aus takes us on a journey that goes beyond the confines of the dream, weaving together various life moments into the track. The resulting remix delves deep into the artist's inner world, creating a powerful musical exploration.
