Japanese noise inspired by: "Crowded towns and city networks... tinnitus in a ghost town... forgotten memories, vomiting and sinking into a stagnant river bed.. guitar feedback in the chilly rain... a putrid mess in the corner of a dirty town. Outbursts of chirping crickets in the night fog, harsh noise and drone... hellish rumbles from the earth and endless darkness.... black solitude harsh drone works".
Harsh Noise from Japan. A Japanese hybrid human / noise-machine that creates noise-scapes of unfathomed depths. Banging hand-made noise generators aka “SHIBAKI Electronics” made of iron plates, creating a dazzling spectra of sounds, from ultra-fast extremely trippy harsh barrages to meditative spacy sounds. Experience the roar of his live electronics with your own flesh. Includes a collaboration with Sudden Infant. Series III ('loud') in the Ground Fault series.
This 7" EP decisively marks Guilty Connector's new identity, the first side focusing the electronics of the project's renown into an orchestra of feedback drones to realise a searing, attentive piece of tension and resolution. The second side is a re-thought collection of sounds utilising minute low-end whisperings and subtle textural introductions for a subdued counterpoint to the scald of the first. Cut at Abbey Road and pressed at Sydney's Vinyl Factory for attentive sound reproduction. Ltd x 200 copies with collage colour outer and greyscale inner covers, and handstamped labels. Australian import. ACT FAST!
