Paradise View

A soundtrack for Goh Takamine’s magic realist film of the same name, Paradise View would anticipate the Hosono world music-collaging skills that came to full fruition on omni Sight Seeing. Rooted in Okinawan folk song, it also takes in Balinese gamelan and vocal chants, with Hosono and his gear taking shards of sound and rearranging them into fascinating mosaics. He imagines ancient ritualistic music for a not-yet-determined future time.
