There are three tracks: 1 visible 10:51:23 [ma, zk] 2 transparent 24:27:00 [ma] 3 exposed 19:59:02 [zk] The first is a collaboration, the second is mixed by Akita and the third by Karkowski. The CD was recorded at icc/ntt studios, Tokyo and is limited to a thousand copies. Those of you familiar with the recent releases of merzbow will notice that this is different: instead of the brutal harsh metallic assult, mazk have chosen a warmer nasty noise mixed with sub and low frequencies (more digital than analogue), a kind of sour-techno-hyper-noise - arrrghhh... !!!
