Just received this news from Cold Spring,......sounds pretty cool..... -
Cold Spring Newsflash - 21st April 2008
A HUGE thanks to everyone who came to support the MERZBOW / SUTCLIFFE JÜGEND / SATORI concert on Saturday (all 600+ of you!), and who made it such a success. We were overwhelmed by the great response. Justin's sorry he couldn't speak to everyone who approached him, but at times it was quite impossible to be in any one place for long enough, or to give everyone his full attention! He's catching up with emails, so please be patient if you're awaiting a response.
We had a fantastic afternoon with Masami Akita on Sunday at Tin Pan Alley studios, where he created an astounding 20-minute track for the forthcoming Merzbow album on Cold Spring - a very unique track, in that Masami plays freestyle drums over his trademark noise... quite a breathtaking experience! We'll make an announcement to our email list as soon as it becomes available.
Thanks once again, and we'll see you all at the next Cold Spring event!
Jo / COLD SPRING

to those who've got the CD (no CD's in Bristol, but there again it wasn't sponsored by Coldspring!!) is it worth buying. What's the Merzbow track like?

Orthic Thrench Checked it out finally, and the Merzbow track is great. Lots of power tools on there, and sounds very much modern like modern Merz....Its got kind of a Here vibe, and reminded me of the better parts of Zophorus...... The SJ is ok I guess, and Im afraid I missed the Satori track cos I fell asleep...( no really, I did.... )

Nice! Do you have contacts to Important Records or how did this happen? Also, do you have any information wether this is going to be one 13-CD set or a series of 13 single CD releases?
I wonder for how many of his releases Akita chose the title himself. In his vegan book he also mentions that Important Records came up with the "Merzbeat" name...

Hi,
Just noticed an advert in the wire magazine for another release, coming out on Important next month called Dolphin Sonar. Couldn't find anything on the Important website, however, CDuniverse are taking pre-orders.
