about the cassette

Masahiro Sugaya began his career in the 1980s, working alongside the environmental music scene of that era while also making a significant impact on stage music through his involvement with Pappa Tarahumara.

Over the past 20 years, Sugaya has shifted from traditional composition using instrumental music to creating works for 8-channel multi-speaker systems, incorporating environmental sounds and field recordings. This evolution continues in しるしまみれ / Overflowing Signs, which features collages of environmental sounds within individual tracks. The album is structured to balance past and new works, forming a collage-like representation of Sugaya’s diverse creative output.

しるしまみれ / Overflowing Signs offers an experience that navigates freely between Sugaya’s environmental music approach and his practices in field recording and musique concrète, presenting a sequence of sounds that defies easy categorization or symbolism.
