NMM SoundBytes: Kaiwei Does It All “4u”
Brooklyn’s Kaiwei is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and composer whose wildly experimental and singular sound is sometimes melodic, sometimes harsh, sometimes ambient, and always unique. On his latest album, Reprocessor, he creates a “sonic documentation and ‘musicalization’ of Covid19 era found sounds, with songs composed between 2020-2022”. The result is often ominous and oppressive with some bright spots woven in, much like the era it represents.
One of the standout tracks on the 12 song album is “4u”, which resides right near the middle of the album as the 5th track. With its unique blend of movements, sounds, and moments, the track felt like one of the best ways to introduce Reprocessor to The Farsighted’s readers.
