Yasuhiko Kobayashi’s 15-year-old son had skipped judo practice. According to Kobayashi, the boy’s teacher was furious and stood waiting for him at the gates of his junior high school in Yokohama. The teacher forced the boy into the gym and made him grapple one on one. The former All Japan judo champion choked the boy until he lost consciousness.
When the boy came to, the teacher choked him again until he went limp, and threw him to the floor with such force that he suffered severe internal bleeding in his brain, an injury known as an acute subdural hematoma. (Japan Times)

ige*timer  │ice cold pop│  RECORD RELEASE TOUR 

ige*timer

Doublebass meets hacked toys and lofi electro acustic 

In 2009, ige*timer - formed by double bass and electronics player Klaus Janek and DIY creator and percussionist Simon Berz - toured the USA documenting their concerts on live sound recordings. The outcome of these recordings is their new LP „ice cold pop“. 

Now the duo heads to Japan and the West Coast USA to draw inspiration from cities, landscapes and local communities to provide a starting point for real-time composed sound. The forthcoming Japanese concerts will focus on intercultural exchange between ige*timer and around 10 guest musicians. In US, beside concerts in clubs, studios and living rooms, ige*timer is searching for inspirational situations in urban or rural settings, to feed back into their improvisations. Equipped with a portable sound system, performances can be happen anywhere, recorded onto video by Michelle Ettlin, whose impressions of last year‘s tour were published in the IPS photo-booklet and artwork.
