Asahito Nanjo Group Musica - Contemporary Kagura-Metaphysics
No idea which other artists are involved here. My bet is that it is Satan's orchestra tuning up whilst waiting for the end of times. Or something. CD released on Fractal Records in 2004.

White Heaven - Threshold Of The Pain / 4 Hours (In The Afternoon)
In the hands of somebody else Side A would be a pop song. The reverse is a gorgeous desert song all wrapped up in sustain until it feeds back.
7" released on HG Fact in 1994.

White Heaven - Next To Nothing
This comes straight out of a very unexpected place where the Heaven audition as Van Morrison's backing band circa 1972 and You Ishihara comes across as a swooning, crooning Nick Cave ably supported by Go Hirano's lounge bar keyboards. The full intentions for this release are revealed by the cover of Bacharach And David's "The Look Of Love". There is a sly genius behind this music that never stops making me smile ...
CD released on Noon Disk in 1994.

White Heaven - Electric Cool Acid
The first six tracks are from a gig in Tokyo (apparently recorded from the back of the room) in 1987 with Tetsuya Sakamoto alongside Michio Kurihara on guitars. This saw a tape release in 1988 but for this version, there is a "bonus" 15 minute studio recording from 1988 where the line-up reverts to the same as the previous post.
Fuzzed out, heads down CD released on Noon Disk in 1995.

CD released on Xerxes in 1998.

Ground Zero - Consume Red
Ground Zero were an astonishing collective with Otomo Yoshihide at the helm. This is simply his good self sampling Kim Suk Chul playing the Hojok (a Korean double reed wind instrument) and then giving it the Otomo Yoshihide treatment.
That is until around 25 minutes when everybody else arrives and it transforms into another half hour of the greatest bass and drum foundation ... and the sample returns and returns ... and it destroys itself ... and the sample returns and returns.
The only downside is that this eventually ends. Just play this on a perpetual loop. Your life will be fulfilled. You don't need anything else.
For me, this is truly a work of beauty. Words are overrated, just listen.
The preceding two posts are other artists re-imagining this wonderful thing. All three are exquisite in their own way ... but nothing / no thing is better than this!
This one was released on Creativeman Disc. in 1997.
