Today's new #review covers #MaskOfConfidence. "As in Reuter’s Truce project, Trentini provides outstanding fretless bass work that will remind listeners of #MickKarn, and the addition of the woodwinds certainly harkens to some of Karn’s solo albums. But this is no mere nostalgia trip..." #ExposeOnline #progrock http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/mask-of-confidence-2.html

Chi ha avuto la fortuna di vederlo "live" non può non ricordare la sua straordinaria ecletticità e la sua precisione ritmica.

Given my current location, it's no surprise that this absolute banger from Japan (the band, not the country) has been playing over in my head quite a bit. The extraordinary video is inspired by a ballet by #Bauhaus era choreographer #OskarSchlemmer. #RaySinger created it in honour of Japan's brilliant and sorely missed bassist (also a talented sculptor), #MickKarn.

NEW ARTICLE: Japan's 'Visions of China' captures the band's inspiration from the East. The musicianship is full of ingenuity, especially Steve Jansen's magnificent drums. The song title was also a photography book by Marc Riboud, influencing the album art.

“Speaking of fretless bass, #MickKarn used its slippery, aqueous tones to build a whole new musical language.” 🎶👍😁 #Music #NewWave #NewRomantic https://www.udiscovermusic.com/stories/bass-players-bassists-new-wave-post-punk-feature/
