Listening in on Shigeto

Tweet

AKA Zach Saginaw, Shigeto has been making collages of electronic beats, richly-textural releases, many of them following the narrative of his family’s experience in Japanese internment camps here in the US during World War II.

His main axe of choice turns out to be Propellerhead Reason, making use of programming Reason’s sweet sounding effects. He  revealed that he plays a lot of rhythms live to maintain their feel. In this case, when he did turn to the programmed Redrum modules, he set the grid to 64th notes to actually program in swing syncopations.
