oh jesus. merzbow. wow. um okay, the idea is cute for a cd or two or three, but this guy has like 100+ CDs out. its all the same shit, a guy fucking around with audio equipment. i could produce something to the same effect for you if you want me too, and you can destroy your speakers with it if you choose. its all based on experimentation, i guess. it makes great sampling material, if you're into that sort of thing. and its not repetitive. there is no pattern to be repeated in utter chaos. my suggestion: download before you buy. ~Rotkin.Te / The_Desig~ ________________________________________________________________________ "Reaching out to embrace the random.

It's amazing how few people have actually listened to Merzbow's backcatalogue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
