*299 copies limited edition* One of the most rare and classic Experimental Japanoise albums, recorded in 1981 - with sticker. It remains one of the holy grails of DIY electronics from Japan. Hazy and drugged, this entrancing 1981 recording by the infamous Nord is a must-have for anyone who is into claustrophobic and destroyed ambient of the most disturbing, affecting kind.
"Nord, consisting of Satoshi Katayama and Hiroshi Oikawa, were one of the leading groups in the Japanese underground music scene of the 1980s. The group's two members now perform separately, both of them using the Nord moniker. Originally released on the always stellar and hyper collectible Pinakotheca Records in 1981 when they were still performing as a duo.
