I havent heard the Alec Empire cd, so cant comment, but of his Tzadik releases, 1930 is excellent, thoroughly recommended.
Sphere, however, isnt really as good at all. I think this album is Masami Akita treading water. It definitely isnt one of his better records, IMO,
that said though, I really should give it another go, as I havent played it for a good while....
Some people hate all his digital albums, saying he stopped producing good music when he bought his laptop to create on ( often referred to by haters
as "crap top" ), but I think this is definitely unfair, as IMO he has made some great records in his digital era....( Bariken, Houjoue and Amlux in
particualr are top fucking drawer )

Sorry to hear about your PC, Goj... But thanks for your Merzbow help! Went to one very large alternative CD-store today, but didn't find any.
Tip: if you want to make an active link but don't feel like typing the url and /url between [], just type your address, with http:// in front of it,
and this forum will make it a link automatically.

Thanks for the heads up BB. I am on my fathers PC at the moment, so its easy to use for once! On my Mac, I cant seem to run / install programmes
properly either, so I cant get a Flash player or an Anti Virus as yet, which sucks, as it means I cant go to zappa.com on it until I find out where Im
going wrong!
Technology eh?

I dont have it ( yet! )....From the snippets Ive heard, it does sound pretty good though. I like Elliott Sharp, and the mixture of the two seems to
work. Its one of those Merz albums I keep meaning to pick up, but never seem to get round to actually buying it!
Like Ive said before, the Merzbow catalogue is more dangerous than Zappas! At least the Zappa catalogue has one ( or possibly two ) labels, rather
than a shitload all situated across the world, and no real end in sight with an average of an album each month....
