Malaunitly

From Vital Weekly :

So far we reviewed very little of Yan Jun's work, even when he some available. It's not easy to
describe what he does, but perhaps working with musical concepts comes close. This new
release gives a pretty accurate overview of his work. The title consists of three different parts,
and on CD we only find two of them. The first CD is 'Montreal Spy Diary' and the second contains
'Nothing'; for 'Living Room Tour Montreal' you have to go the label's website where you can
download these concerts, easily six times thirty to forty minutes of music. Download codes are
in the CD package. So the first CD is a diary of a visit of Yan Jun to Montreal where he recorded
secretly bits and bobs of sound at people's places; Yan Jun plays his concerts preferably for a
small audience, in a living room, so he's entering lots of homes and tapes then a bit of sound. I
assume he uses quite a bit of different microphones, as sometimes the sound is quite loud and
crackling. But this is a really interesting CD of found sound, which even includes two live
recordings, and if you didn't know you would have probably not noted these were live recordings.
In his living room concerts Yan Jun plays feedback concerts and he describes how different they
can be. In 'Nothing' he did a feedback improvisation in a real studio, and effectively this is then
his first studio CD. The music is most certainly not 'easy', with a ton of high-pitched sounds,
which perhaps is more than what I can hear, due to loss of hearing (advanced age). This is
certainly not easy listening, but quite essential to understand where Yan Jun comes from.
To follow straight from 'Nothing' to all the living room concert recordings is hard-core, but
I tried a bit. The booklet lists all the places and what kind of materials there were to play his
concerts and the results are quite different from each other. It depends on material available
and I guess size of the space. Playing six of these recordings, spanning easily three more hours
I found very interesting but even at the most moderate volume I use for home playback my
seventeen old companion came in asking me what the hell was going on; apparently Yan Jun's
music was very audible down the hall, with two doors closed. When she has say in it, Yan Jun
can only play this living room when she's not here.
The release comes with an oversized folder with texts and images and that makes a complete
package. (FdW)
