Along similar lines, and more impressive IMO, is Xenakis' "La Legende
d'Eer" (Montaigne, Fr.)  This piece from the late 70s comes years later
than most of what's on the disc above.  Highly mathematical, and horrific.
Think somewhere between, say, Ryoji Ikeda and Merzbow.

Anyone got the "Kraanerg" CD on Asphodel?
