macronaria editions
ground-creeping resonances / boundary-defying sounds
Just as the massive Macronaria once roamed this earth, resonating through its gargantuan nasal passages to send ground-creeping infrasound kilometers away—
The sound unleashed from the great wooden vessel of the double bass is more than mere vibration. It becomes a long-wavelength low frequency that slips through walls, rounds corners, and "diffracts" through every obstacle to reach your location.
Macronaria Editions is an independent label dedicated to charting new possibilities for the solo double bass.
From meticulously composed contemporary works to improvisations born only in the moment, macronaria editions employs refined recording techniques to extract the pure "ring" of the instrument, sending forth records of solo performance that resonate from the deepest depths.
Do not listen with your ears alone.
Let it travel through the ground, vibrate your bones, and reach into the far distance.
The essence of the solo double bass is now crossing your boundaries.
mnr002 : Diffraction
Sound waves bend around obstacles, penetrating the realm of shadows.
A primordial roar, resonating through nasal cavities to commune with distant kin.
The multilayered vibrations unleashed from the gargantuan resonator of the double bass diffract through the space of the hallowed "Barber Fuji."
They pierce the silence, pushing through a dense, primeval thicket.
A raw fragment of communion; a single-take, 60-minute visceral record.

digital release
Recorded in isolated environments where three double basses remained oblivious to one another's resonance.
When these three disparate voices converge, they transcend mere layering to become an "unexpected music"—a sonic architecture born from the blind intersection of wood and air.
Masashi Yamamoto captures the moment where individual intent dissolves into a singular, monumental vibration.
