The group was formed by Sinsuke Fujieda, a saxophonist and flutist, based on jazz music but incorporating various genres. The group consists of Shinichi Tsukamoto on piano, who also plays with TRIAL PRODUCTION and Yant Izes. The violinist is Fumiko Takeshita of no.9 orchestra, piano&violin duo and kanako. On bass, Shu Kato from his own
group and echostics. Masanao Matsushita, who plays in Yasei Collective and Gentle Forest Jazz Band, plays drums. Daisuke Alkhaly, an African percussionist who also plays in ROOTSTRIBE DUB SEPTET, plays percussion. The live recording album (2CD) and the DVD (DVD) are the complete version of “Gentle Erosion”, which Fujieda directed. The album, entitled Unformel, combines Fujieda’s grandiose and painterly compositions with the members’ varied tonal improvisations to create a sometimes primitive, sometimes dramatic ensemble. The sound of ethnic overtones such as harmonic flute, bamboo clarinet, khoomei, etc. and the drone created by the effectors add a unique depth and three-dimensionality to the music. Mastered by KASHIWA Daisuke. The cover art is a live painting by Yasuo Kusakabe, done at the same time as the live recording.
