It's the album where Keiji Haino plays with an orchestra of crickets. Any of you fuckers heard it or got it?

[ilduclo]

I have the original recording, I think it was released on "Archive" records a few years ago, but this is the raw recording that the Archive release came from:

8/28/04 Homeogryllus Japonicus Orchestra Hara Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo Homeogryllus Japonicus (crickets), Haino (air synth), Mamoru Fujieda (elex) d1:crickets/Haino; d2, t1: crickets t2: crickets/Fujieda MD aud 84 min

pm me if you want to swap for some flac's ( don't have any liner notes, however)

Thanks, I found it already though. But not with a scan of the liner notes unfortunately

I don't think I've ever seen a copy of this...

Here are my liners, writ 2004, record published 2005:

CRICKET LOGIC

i.
cricket leg rub / haino black insect alien back rub summit / metal insects breed, so why shouldn't Keiji? / plateau-like massed thrumm of hoards, sticky feelers extended / vibration=communication=rock n roll humm-bomb thrum-bomb high whine green drone, electronic and organic / do crickets dream of morton subotnick?

ii.
Hara crickets in casual conversation—what are they talking about? alien love songs to the earth / group mind, beautiful and pure.

iii.
hhhhuuuuummmmmmmmm. Ooohhhmmmmmm. Mamoru Fujieda matches wits with crickets. Holy Drone tames them, hypnotic, ecstatic, sound of earth slowing down, spinning in orbit. sound of breathing. sound, utimately, of US (you and me), in the best light possible.

There's unofficial documentation floating around of at least one show by Keiji Haino on guitar and vocals, Lee Ranaldo on guitar, electronics and percussion objects, and Jim Black on drums.
