Merzbow (Masami Akita) is the Japanese legend and progenitor of Noise music. For
three decades his view of making music has created a new and different sound
entirely unlike any other in the history of musical composition. Balßzs Pßndi is
one of HungaryÆs hottest commodities, welding the tools of grindcore to a free,
improvised style that has kept him consistently in demand.
Teaming up together, the percussive attack of Pßndi has provided a variance and
dynamic that has brought an entirely new dimension to the Merzbow live
performance. This show in New York captures a truly inspired and vibrant concert
û termed independently by both Masami Akita and mixing engineer Submerged as
ôSPACE JAZZö.
The show breaks down into an opening duet, Merzbow solo, another duet, Balßzs
solo, and a 22 minute soul searing ending demolishing duo performance. There is
not much to say in any language about the music of Merzbow û it must be heard to
be believed, as it cannot be explained in words. This performance is the
highlight of the recent duo performances of Akita and Pßndi; we at Ohm
Resistance are honored to present it.
