Beyond the Circle

The pulse of captivating and ear-catching dance rhythms forms the foundation for these hauntingly melodic and evocative soundscapes. The compositions are expertly balanced by an intricate interlacing of ancient Japanese instruments and singing. Beyond the Circle is an uplifting statement of honed perfection. A masterful melding of the latest electronic textures with the most spiritual of Asian musical history.This upbeat music was composed, produced and performed by Osamu Kitajima and Chris Mancinelli. It also features vocalist Nanako Mikado singing traditional Geisha songs, the expressive playing of shakuhachi master Masakazu Yoshizawa, and WILCO guitar legend Nels Cline.
These performances are woven directly into the music not as lead or solo parts, but as equal instruments integrated into the sonic fabric of each composition. Pioneers in blending the sounds of Eastern and Western cultures, the duo feels most comfortable in a synthesis of these two contrasting worlds furthering their reputation as "Pan Pacific Ambient Dance Masters".

The ensemble’s blues-influenced repertoire includes traditional march tunes, spirituals, and pop standards, played with what New Orleans musicians call "lots of tone"with overblown horns, and of course, at high volume!
