I've got this one for trade or sale. Please contact me off-list if you're interested. As clipped from the Forced Exposure music-list.. 12K: O/R: CD (12K 006). "0/R is Nosei Sakata (*O) and Richard Chartier. The collaboration was realized in mid-1999 entirely through the mail between the US and Japan. Raw tones and sounds on Minidisc were sent to Chartier and returned to *O with new sounds and tracks made from *O's original sounds. This back and forth continued several times, the track titles indicating this process. The CD also includes 2 tracks 'r' and '0' which are original solo works by each artist inspired by the collaboration. Although the two have never before collaborated, their sounds and aesthetics are a perfect compliment to each other. The result is an album of the extremes. From the ultrahigh frequency of 'Or' (an intro that many may not even hear, registering in at around 18 khz, just below the upper limit of human hearing) to the 40hz basspulse of'"O/r', static and nth generations of digital sound simultaneously whine and click with machine precision and break away in fractured compositional space."

I want to highly recommend the above release if you're into very subtle experimental ambience. This one definitely fits into the "not quite music recommendations" thread that Sean Cooper recently started. Not your typical musical structures but more like evolving, often chaotic, assemblages of sound. Admittedly, music in this style is challenging to uniniated ears but quite rewarding to those who can hear it for what it is. Other releases in a similar vein: . Richard Chartier: a hesitant fold cd (Meme) . Richard Chartier: post-fabricated cdr (Microwave) . *0: 0.00 cdr (Mu Label) . Miki Yui: small sounds cd (BMB Lab) -->-Lance--- mclance@nacs.net lance@inaudible.com p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
