Toh-Kichi [Satoko Fujii + Tatsuya Yoshida] – ‘Baikamo’ (2019)

Keiji Haino, Merzbow + Balazs Pandi – ‘Become the Discovered, Not the Discoverer’ (2019)

‘Become the Discovered, Not the Discoverer’ by Keiji Haino, Merzbow and Balazs Pandi ain’t got no edits, no overdubs, nothing planned in advance. Just pure unadulterated impulsiveness.
