The 2018 release of Intaglio finds acclaimed Japanese bassist and composer Motohiko Hamase revisiting his influential 1986 album with a fresh new recording. Seamlessly blending electronic soundscapes with jazz improvisation, Hamase crafts intricate compositions that echo the minimalism of Steve Reich and the atmospheric layering of Jon Hassell, creating a mesmerizing and contemplative listening experience.
On Intaglio, Hamase performs solo on a custom six-string fretless bass, drawing from a diverse palette of genres to reveal new nuances with each listen. Long regarded as a hidden gem within Japan’s rich electronic and jazz scenes, this album offers sonic depth and inventive musicianship that will intrigue both longtime fans and new listeners alike.
