Voice : Well, when he wants! Sakamoto has canceled the interview. From Germany to renounce nuclear, we thought it would have things to say.

A. N. : Germany has a leading role and it may be the same model. Here, people took to the streets, they have shown, they fought and won the case. I am proud.

Voice: This is great, to pay attention to things you need to change is the cup of tea Sakamoto. He launched a website "Stop Rokkasho" denouncing the activities of a reprocessing plant e nuclear waste in northern Japan. The site calls the artists to engage and fight through their art.

A. N.: In Japan, Ryuichi is a public figure and he uses his position to express opinions and ideas. This goes beyond the nuclear, it talks about life.

Voice: The time for reflection, it is the gift we are Ryuichi Sakamoto and Alva Noto with their new album. Thinking that the two musicians in the field of anti-nuclear activism.

A. N.: From the beginning, we had this idea of​deceleration as when you look at something in slow motion and that makes visible things that go so fast you barely see them. This is perhaps what makes our music: it gives us time. It allows us to perceive things that otherwise remain invisible to our eyes.
