Experimental vocalist / electronic musician Yasushi Yoshida aka Yassan was touring the U.S. with his band Bonanzas from Osaka Japan and made a stop in NYC. We played a show with them and invited Yasushi over to our rehearsal space the next day in Gowanus and got into a 40 min improvisational jam which we recorded. We had Hisham on the drums, Nicos triggering / effecting Hisham's drums and Yasushi's vox, me on the Electribes and Yasushi's vox. This was recorded in one take with only a few minor edits to cut it down in length. No sounds were added post recording. Yasushi Yoshida has been a part of the underground music scene in the Kansai area of Japan since the mid-nineties. Aside from Bonanzas Yoshida currently plays in a hybrid free jazz / techno group called DANTEFONE and has played in bands such as Spasmom, Suspiria, Nasca Car to name a few. We would describe this music as 'mutant grime'. Imagine a creature born with pelvic distortion inside of a black hole who is sent to earth to escape a dying planet infested by carnivorous machines made of cyanogenetic tar. This creature grows strong in the sewers of our planet, half alien flesh, half machine, feeding on nephrotoxic materials humans dump into the waterways. This recording is the sound of this creature and it's voyage, it's rituals, it's battles with it's enemies.
