‘Armonico Hewa’ continues the rapturous and frenetic
celebration of nature that coursed through the veins of
OOIOO’s 2006 album ‘Taiga’. Where as ‘Taiga’ meant ‘forest’
in Russian and ‘big river’ in Japanese, ‘Armonico Hewa’ is a
combination of words (‘armonico’ is Spanish and ‘hewa’ is
Swahili) that is defined by the band as “air in a harmonious
state”. Like the cross-cultural title, ‘Armonico Hewa’ is a mind-
melting combination of stylistic reference points that can only
be described as some kind of tribal psychedelia that is oddly
spiritual and alarmingly urgent.
OOIOO leader Yoshimi began her music career in 1986
playing drums in UFO Or Die with Eye and later joined him in
the revolutionary noise-pop experimentalist Boredoms.
While the group has featured different musicians in the past,
the same all-female four-piece who created ‘Taiga’ is once
again the driving force behind ‘Armonico Hewa’. Longtime
OOIOO guitarist Kayan, bassist Aya and drummer Ai join
Yoshimi to create one of the most enthralling, adventurous
and unique bands in modern music.
CD version comes packaged in an ultra-deluxe six panel
old-style tip-on mini-LP style gatefold package (custom
made by the printer for this release). The LP version is
limited to 1, 000 copies and comes in a gatefold jacket
with free download coupon
