The Sound of Raspberry
Tip! “This is what we need! In these confused, populistic and fascist times — this is the jazz we need! Urgent! Dedicated! Radical! Unique-face-peeling-cutting- edge- and- totally-in-your-face-MF! This is all we need for a better living! Think… Borbetomagus, John Zorn, TG, Masami Akita, Hanatarash… this is it and yet, not at all alike!” - Mats Gustafsson "Absolutely blistering duo album. The sax sounds like it's laser-cutting its way through the atmosphere while the drums expand and contract the…
This Molten Salt
A relentless pedal-free noise blitz that will surely offend most music lovers is certainly going to delight a wide range of noise fans. This album fits somewhere between extreme free jazz and the works of Iannis Xenakis. Charlie Mumma has played drums on over 150 albums with legendary noise-grind-music concrete band Sissy Spacek, led by John Wiese, an outfit that changes members almost as often as they get in the studio. Martín Escalante has appeared on a few of those Spacek albums in fact that …
Strings
"Strings leads once again to Omaha, to Cast Off Form, a commuter between acoustics and noise, who sniffed at "Ruach" and listened to "Resonance". Here he performs a happening with unrecognizable guitar, persistent tam-tam and motoric rattling effect, as a to-and-fro of wiry fluttering beats with the buzzing, purring motoric, which escalates into harsh noise as a wall of sound and in impulsive spurts and thus gains the upper hand. The second, again buzzing and humming, varies this with extreme ma…

終末処理場 = Syumatsusyorijo
The long-awaited first analogue reissue of the legendary noise compilation album 'Doomsday Processing Plant', released in 1980 on Unbalance Records, which was headed by the late Naoto Hayashi of INU - Auschwitz! This album features three bands active in the Kansai underground scene at the time, which is referred to as so-called noise and industrial. The album was released two years before the famous "Hijokaidan" album "Zouroku no kibyou" (1982), so it is regarded as their first album. "NG" is a …
Mechanization Takes Command
"Mechanization Takes Command" was first released on Music-Cassette by Masami Akita on his own ZSF label back in 1983 and this, after 40 years, is the very first re-edition into CD format. A very special and historical album. The large part of sounds on this album have an analogue origin. Masami on this album plays Drums (?) and Guitar (?)... But also many other instruments and sound-surces such as TV ands Vocal samples. And of course Electronics, Loops, Effects, Drum-Machines... The overall is v…
