Marihiko Hara - Cesura

RATED: 10 / 10
reviewed by David Velez
12/15/2007
To review this release I could talk about the beautiful melodies here, about the amazing sound palette used on this record; I could also talk about the incredible textural and spacial work done here or about the minimal and delicate use of rhythm featured here. I could say that Cesura is the beautiful score for a movie composed by twelve scenes, twelve stories, twelve protagonists, twelve settings, twelve DP's, twelve directors but just one writer. But I won't.

I have been trying to start this article for 5 or more times without major success. This release seems to be more lyrical, descriptive and literal than most of the works I have recently reviewed.

Since I delayed reviewing Cesura so much, I am now forced and delighted to do it on the road, away from home, away from all the elements that repeatedly kept me from finishing my job.

Cesura brings the surprise, the joy and the hope that has been lost since we grew up. Cesura is childish but nevertheless not a candid or naive work.

Cesura is sweet, sad, uplifting, contemplative, fragile, beautiful, like a leaf falling from a tree in slow motion.

Like a lonely quiet moment beholding the sunset after a night of wild partying.

Like a night drive at 1 AM on our way home.

Cesura could also be eerie, stubborn and arrogant...like many people we know and love.

Cesura is human, very human: imperfect and strongly beautiful.

Cesura is the center of a hurricane, where you feel calmness and peace, but where the boundaries warn you of violence and chaos.

I honestly believe that any further writing will be pointless and redundant, if these words won't inspire you to listen then try the featured sample, which very likely will.

All I can say is that it feels better after you hear it, way better.

Marihiko Hara is from Japan and Zymogen is based in Modena, Italy and is runned by Filippo Aldovini.

Read all about and by David Velez and listen to his favorite tracks!
