Japanese noise artist
Masami Akita
aka
Merzbow
and Scandinavian noise artist
Lasse Marhaug
have been working together since the mid-'90s. The first release on Marhaug's (now-deleted) label Jazzassin Records in 1995 was the
First Rock
split single. In 2001, Merzbow and
Jazzkammer
(Marhaug's project with
John Hegre
) released a live album. Later, Akita and Marhaug executed several live collaborations, but often with other artists such as
Hair Stylistics
and
Jim O'Rourke
. In 2010, they finally got together to record as a duo. Recorded at GOK Sound Studios in Tokyo, the results can now be heard as
Mer Mar
. Made using a combination of scrap metal screeching, analog synths and enough effects pedals to make you overweight with most airline companies,
Mer Mar
is a tour de force for both of these noise veterans, hinting at some classic '80s Merzbow jams such as
Material Action
. Recorded at Studio GOK Sound, Tokyo, April 7, 2010 by
Hamamoto Yohei
. Cut by
Rashad Becker
at Dubplates & Mastering, Berlin. Cover design by Lasse Marhaug.
