Holy Ground by Katsunori Sawa

Second solo EP on The Weevil Neighbourhood by Kyoto based Katsunori Sawa.

"Sawa's solo career has found a home on the experimentally inclined German drum and bass and musique concrète Weevil Neighbourhood, and his music has helped define the label's continuously evolving, abstract and sometimes confrontational aesthetic. The Holy Ground EP is Sawa's third release for the label in total which follows The Two Legs debut in 2013, and like that EP you can expect more walls of rhythmic noise, undulating bottom end rave and terrifying soundscapes." (Juno Plus)

"Very impressive new 4 tracker by this Japanese musician. As his previous "Two Legs" EP, "Holy Ground" is a bit less techno and a bit more industrial than what he delivered as part of the Steven Porter project, though there are definitely a couple of tracks here which would fit well on a dancefloor. Slow, dub but very dirty and uncommonly heavy material with oppressive atmospheres and an original take at the whole industrial vibe. Quite zeitgeisty, but also very recommended." (Nicolas Chevreux/ Ad Noiseam)

"If Holy Ground proves anything, it's that Sawa's as much an ambient soundscape designer as he is someone interested in crafting clubby fare. Certainly there are as many if not more textural details on display as there are beats." (textura)
