5 stars Tim Hecker - Anoyo (2019) continues what Konoyo (2018) started. A 6 track release full of fresh new approaches of his sonic impressions on his visits (in plural) to Japan.

In able to review it, I inevitably, have to compare it with his previous release of which this one is a kind of an offspring or to put it in other words in the same tenor.

Anyway, I found in this Anoyo an enhanced poetic/nostalgic imprint & a far more palpable closeness to Classical Japanese music canons and their respective instruments, which by the way, in able for you reader to get a clear picture of what goes on here, are transfigured into new hazy electronic music realms with a detached yet deep feel of sacredness.

Therefore there is a clear contrast between both albums and their respective approaches. Nevertheless both works counterbalance each other as it could have turned out in a single release of a (perfect) double album, but each album withholds its own charm and yes somehow different yet fraternal results.

A more than honorable sequel to his past masterwork. 5 PA stars.
