field of sound

field of sound began in japan late 2004 when daniel marano and kiyokazu onozaki began recording in kiyokazus apartment in tokyo with one microphone and a digital recorder. daniel had previously played guitar in perth band " maine " with michael day, lily sumich + jerome kennedy. and kiyokazu had his own band " the andersens " . the idea was to record a musical diary of songs that daniel had loosley written on acoustic guitar , with daniel, kiyokazu and other friends adding layers of guitars, harmonica, melodian, piano, flute, harp, bells, reverb, delay and various kitchen utensils. these songs became field of sounds 1st album , " sengokuhara " . " monochrome sky " , field of sounds 2nd album documents daniels colaborations with various other friends. " monochrome sky " is the result of several improvisational jams and was recorded mostly inside various houses in perth, western australia.
