Following 2020’s “Onomatopée Suicida” on Total Black, T. Mikawa and Fumio Kosakai lead off the wild odyssey of “Oxen Man’s Uneasiness”, peeling off panning swells, blasting particles into sprawling towers of free form dissonance with an oceanic force.
Tracks two and three expand upon the duo’s free form challenge to frequency range and give space to density, effectively pushing the boundaries of their enduring style.
The last track is a final, crashing shore-break of static energy, a re-entry of total trademark cacophony.

Czech Republic artist NBDY utilities precise measures in his approach to cut-up noise. Tearing into passages with precise immediacy which at points abruptly hyperextends into crisp, bracing passages of pure stillness.
