ATP Japan has been rumored for the last several years, and who would you love to see curate if it were to occur and can afford the trip

Hijokaidan would be real cool since Jojo runs Alchemy, and that line up would be intense

i think Haino would be the best though, through his collaborations he has shown much interest across multiple genres like jazz, rock, noise, etc

boredoms

[Glice]

Barry Hogan.

[batreleaser]

boredoms, definitley. they would be able to bring out all the best noise and avant rock bands from japan, and still would be able to bring out the best u.s. bands because theyre so well connected. not to mention, theyre shoulda been a boredoms atp years ago.

[Glice]

I'll go along with that - Friday - Haino percussion evening (4 hours); Saturday - Fushitsusha all-dayer; Sunday - collaborations day! Featuring Haino and no fucking Patton or Zorn please.

Edit: And a hurdy-gurdy solo set wedged in there somewhere please.

[pokkeherrie]

I don't care because I wouldn't be able to go anyway.

It would very likely be Boredoms though since they've played a bunch of ATPs already... I don't think Haino ever has.

[jennthebenn]

picked incapacitants, because boredoms are TOO obvious of a choice.
that and the fact that incapacitants fucking destroy.

[uhler]

i want to see gauze play it.

Boredoms without a doubt. If not, Merzbow

[Everyneurotic]

boredoms: the possibilities of a bunch of their side projects presented live (ooioo and aeo, most likely) plus many of their collaborations and peer groups from japan and elsewhere is promising. still, if boredoms curates, that means no seichii yamamoto, no corrupted, no grind orchestra which would be heartbreaking. also, it almost guaranties that john zorn and/or mike patton get to play.

haino: definitely would bring tons of people from the avant/tzadik scene, plus top noisers from japan. still, i would be interested in what else he would try to bring, which psych bands he'd ask (i bet either amt or musica transonic would play) and also if he's bring blues players and more traditional japanese music to the fold. i bet he'd bring some theater and sound installations to atp.

merzbow: as much as i love masami, i'd think he'd have the dullest bill he could, tons of tzadik artists, tons of laptop shit and lowercase improv. i could guess he'd get russell haswell, z'ev, masonna, haino (kikuri set probably), nurse with wound on the good side.

masonna: it would be sweet if maso decides to seize the occasion and play with his various projects (acid eater, space machine, christinne 23 onna and of course masonna, ideally headlining the best day) but it's more probable that he'd just play with acid eater and get mostly garage punk bands to since he hasn't done noise or synth shit in a long time. angel'in heavy syrup, merzbow, hijokaidan and astro are granted, but i'd say he'd get munehiro narita, amt, mc5/dkt, dmbq, gauze and maybe some punk bands like gai and confuse as well. (i don't know but maybe he'd get some of siltbreeze's recent roster since it's kinda up his alley).

incapacitants: they'd do the harshest noise bill, without much variation. lasse marhaug, fe-mail, carlos giffoni, pain jerk, merzbow, hijokaidan, probably ramleh, and astro with the possibility of trying to persued a c.c.c.c. reunion.

hijokaidan: jojo would bring the cream of alchemy, for sure; but he'd also base his choices on the many fields of improvisation, from keith rowe to ikue mori with tons of media/genre/instrumentation in between. expect some japanese free jazz and many pairings of hijo-associates playing throughout.

[Glice]

I'm a little drunk now, so semi-seriously - of the interviews I've read with the choices above, Haino has talked about a much broader spectrum of music than anyone else. I'd be surprised if Haino picked anyone 'obvious', it'd probably be some soukous band and Munir Bashir [or his son as Munir may be RIP] and the master musicians of Joujouka and that sort of thing (that is to say, a completely un-sellable festival).

Half japanese

I voted Boredoms, but then, immediately, I thought, "No, Acid Mother's Temple!"

Either Acid Mothers Temple or Boredoms.

[MellySingsDoom]

Incapacitanta. Purely to see T Mikawa whip out his Makawa in pubic.

[jennthebenn]

 

although Endo would probably pick a bunch of horrid J-Pop acts.
