Merzbow - Tapestry Of Noise



The Japanese label Slow Down Records / スローダウンRecords came as a surprise to me. Until a couple of years ago, I didn't know anything about them ... and then a steady stream of remasters from the Masami Akita archives started to turn up. Initially, they were an avalanche of single CD realeases and a bit later those same releases were gathered together into six CD boxsets. Same thing sold twice but if you missed them the first time they are invaluable. This is a collection of works from around 1990 / 1991. The first disc is Cloud Cock OO Grand which had it's own ZSF release and then was versioned as part of the immortal Merzbox. This is a different work again. The other five discs I don't remember hearing before. It's the wonderful work of a true legend.

This label has 20-25 discs of vintage 198X-1995 Merzbow. Now that time has done its thing, I fiend for more that period. Thanks so much. Any chance of lossless, or would that make the file too large for those upload sites? You think you have enough, but you do not.
