First released in 1984 and now freshly reissued by WRWTFWW Records, Wave Notation 3: Erik Satie 1984 is a stunning interpretation of Erik Satie's so-called "furniture music" — compositions conceived to soundtrack the rhythms of everyday life long before ambient music became a genre. Japanese pianist Satsuki Shibano brings an elegant, meditative sensibility to 26 tracks that span beloved works like the "Gymnopédies" and "Gnossiennes" alongside lesser-known gems such as the "Préludes flasques (pour un chien)," drawing a natural bridge between Western classical tradition and Japanese environmental ambient sound.
This official reissue has been sourced directly from the original master tape, preserving the warmth and intimacy of Shibano's performance in the finest possible fidelity. Released as a limited edition double LP, it comes housed in a heavyweight sleeve with a liner notes insert — making it an essential acquisition for collectors drawn to the intersection of classical and electronic music, and for anyone captivated by the quiet, timeless world of Satie.
