Sylvian has done some interesting ambient collaborations. His vocal music is an acquired taste, but I've loved him since 1981. Good lord, that's over thirty years ago! (And when you were born, I believe!)
Sakamoto is very eclectic and often quite excellent.
I was born in 78. For some time I have been telling myself I should check out some of his stuff. The only song I know by him happens to be Ghosts by Japan. I think I also heard an ambient jazz album where he was doing some spoken word with the trumpeter Arve Henriksen.
He has worked with David Sylvian (one of my all-time faves), as of course has the previously posted Sakamoto. Great stuff!
ReplyDeleteYes I noticed the collaboration with Sylvian. I don't know a lot about both...
ReplyDeleteJust found out Fennesz because of Sakamoto.
