FUJI|||||||||||TA & Ka Baird
When Yosuke Fujita played Unsound Kraków last year, his dextrous, rhythmic approach to a set of oversized pipes captivated the bleary-eyed Morning Glory crowd. Not playing his usual home-made pipe organ powered by a blacksmith's pump, Fujita was able to suggest a different sonic horizon, nodding to Japanese court music and contemporary electronic sub-genres simultaneously. US-based multi-instrumentalist Ka Baird also performed a jaw-dropping, surreal set, extending the hallucinatory invocations of last year's acclaimed 'Bearings: Soundtracks for the Bardos' with visceral, shapeshifting vocal distortions. The two artists come together for the first time this year for a special Unsound commission, sharing ideas and improvising to channel out an ecstatic mid-point between their idiosyncratic approaches.
