| Comments: |
Full length cd for widely-respected and influencial digital
music label Mego. One of the mature laptop-based Merzbow albums,
the material is reminiscent of Akita's older tape collage
work while introducing some blatantly digital sounds into
the mix. Most interesting when played at a reasonable volume,
this Merzbow cd is not suited to background listening. The
theme of the record is food, and the packaging is a nice tall
gatefold sleeve with card inserts featuring pictures of food,
one card for each track on the cd.
