Tokyo Travelogue by Logan Sky & Amboss
In 2014 Logan Sky and Amboss were asked to improvise a soundtrack to Nicko Straniero's silent Tokyo Travelogue to perform LIVE at Deptford Cinema on Oct 17th 2014. The first six Tokyo Travelogue parts are from this performance and extra tracks from the rehearsal, the day before. These mixer recordings were all played live, without use of a computer.
Nicko Straniero - "The intention of the film was to simply document my second trip to Japan. Armed with a cheap digital camera, I tried to get as many snippets of what I was experiencing. These visual fragments take the viewer to a myriad of places, juxtaposing chaotic touristic hot spots such as Asakusa or Shibuya to sudden domestic intimate situations. What tries to link them all was a personal poetic visual curiosity and a sense of surrealism."
