my ears popped out of my head, some girl in a the audience started crying,

others were laughing... it was the most brutal noise show I had seen.

without a doubt this man is a genuis.


no onkyo - intense noise. >>

was this the show he did with Dean Roberts in Auckland? not one of Otomo's 
better efforts, based on the recording. 

I've spent a fair amount of the past few months immersed in the work of 
Sachiko and Otomo. I'll second Scott's suggestions of the self-titled ISO on 
Alcohol and the Debris 3 inch, and add the Otomo/Voice Crack on my label, 
Erstwhile. 

I'll also mention two upcoming releases, Toshimaru Nakamura/Sachiko M-Do 
(Erstwhile), and Filament Live (Amoebic), both of which are pretty 
remarkable, and both of which should be out soon.
