RER GZ1
The 3rd album overall by Otomo Yoshihide's amazing group. "This work is based on a re-sampling of Heiner Goebbels & Alfred 23 Harth's sampled rendition of a 1960's Revolutionary Pekingese opera from China, the
Peking Oper
(from the LP
Frankfurt-Peking
; CD:
Goebbels Heart
) from 1984." An insane, important album.

Consume Red
Label:
RECOMMENDED (UK)
Format:
CD
Price:
$17.00
Catalog #:
RER GZ2
Repressed. Domestic issue of the sampling masterpiece first issued by Creativemandisc in Japan. Yet another phase in Omoto Yoshihide's Sampling Virus Project.
Consume Red
is the first of a three volume series, and acts as Ground Zero's original document for the set. [Volume 2 (
Conflagration
and Volume 3
Consummation
on the Creativeman label are now o/p].
Consume Red
consists of Ground Zero sampling the music of Korean national treasure Kim Suk Chul, playing Hojok (literal reed streams with bagpipe-like intensities), accompanying on Shamisen, turntables, periodic noise interjections, etc. It's one 60 minute "ambient" piece, beautifully paced and powerfully presented. "Hints at the beautiful chaos ahead. A work that is spiritually uplifting and terrifying as a single squalling blast from an ancient sounding horn is overlaid with a steady building sound collage of sampled noise static, guitar overload, instrumental anarchy , and a drum duo who hammer home a beat that is subtly constructed yet relentless in its attack...will surely be regarded as one of the year's major recorded highlights."

"Led by guitar/turntable wizard Otomo Yoshihide, the fast and furious Ground Zero combine oddball sampling and creative jumpcuts with the raw power of a six piece band."
