Dutch harpist Remy van Kesteren has released Places I may have visited, people I may have met Pt. 2, the second of a four-part series, serving as musical diary for his travels. Taking elements from both minimalism and neo-classical he has developed a signature sound that is far more percussive than the music his instrument is usually associated width.
The first track, above all, with a loop of a single note, is almost upbeat and decidedly cheerful. He is an avid improviser and baoan is the result of letting his fingers do the talking, adding layers to create a mesmerizing, spontaneous composition. The cinematic for a script (what's in a name) and a wealth of slow tinkling notes to invoke his visit to fuji bring the EP to a close.
Places I may have visited, people I may have met Pt. 2 is released via Snowstar Records.
