ADSR COLLECTIVE - VANCOUVER Taisen’s "This Is Time," from his 2021 album HOME, is a masterclass in combining classical depth with modern electronic textures. A classically trained pianist turned jazz improviser, Taisen crafts a meditative piece where poignant piano melodies are underscored by minimalist electronic beats. The composition’s subtle crescendos and thoughtful pauses reflect a cinematic sensibility, likely influenced by Taisen’s background in theater. Embracing the lyricism of chamber music and the pulsations of synthesizers, "This Is Time" creates a deeply emotive soundscape that resonates with themes of memory and fleeting moments. It’s a testament to Taisen’s ability to bridge the classical and contemporary with effortless grace.
