YUZE by The Nudja Conspiracy
We the ”The Nudja Conspiracy" are an experimental Jazz, Rock & Improvisation group based in Japan. From the north to south, each members have their own roots in the different regions of Japan (Hokkaido, Aomori and Kyushu) ; and we have gathered once again to create this SPECIAL project for our fans.
For this album, we looked back into our roots, and each songs are imaged from the scenery and things from our hometown, like the Satsuma Kiriko 薩摩切子 of Kagoshima, and the Oirase Stream 奥入瀬渓流 of Aomori.
"YUZE" showcases a wide variety of songs, spanning from tunes inspired by contemporary jazz featuring unusual time signatures, to darker and improvised tunes inspired by experimental and ambient music. We hope that "YUZE" will take you on a one and only auditory journey.
"Liminal Space" was inspired by "The Backrooms", and we improvised the song while watching this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4dGpz6cnHo&t=253s), so that our performance will be perfectly synchronized with the footage, in an effort to capture its chilling atmosphere. PLEASE play "Liminal Space" alongside with this video.
Physical format (CDs and LPs) are available only on BOOTH. Shipping is available in JAPAN only. https://podzol.booth.pm/items/4251583
All tunes composed, performed, mixed and mastered by "The Nudja Conspiracy"
