The Profile

Japanese guitarist noted for extremely sparse, silence-focused experimental recordings such as Opposite.

DeBaser hosts a single review of Takuya Sugimoto's album Opposite describing extremely sparse guitar work interrupted by long silences. The reviewer calls it both sublime and masochistic, but also notes it induces sleep by the thirtieth minute. The coverage emphasizes the album's conceptual use of silence and stark acoustic timbres.
