In this collaborative album, Japan's groundbreaking producer Hoppy
Kamiyama teams up with world-renowned bassist and producer Bill Laswell.
The result is a well-polished, bass driven mix that provides listeners with an
accessible expression of the duo's avant-garde experiments in composition
and sound. The eclectic mix of styles and techniques displayed on A Navel City
is a refreshing break from the acid-electronic-jazz hybrids currently dominating the
market. Hoppy and Laswell break through barriers and expertly blend their talents
to create a sound completely their own… a liquid blend of jazz, electronica, dub,
plus a touch of improv to keep things interesting. Tying it all together is
percussionist Kiyohiko Semba, who provides a sturdy, rhythmic undercurrent that
seamlessly fuses Laswell's deep bass lines and Hoppy's signature synth soundscapes.
