With a sound recalling Merzbow‘s early tape-loop driven cassette releases, C.C.C.C.‘s Hiroshi Hasegawa brings us into an electric forest of live wires and motherboards.
Never Ending Story of Noise Forest is dark, foreboding and mysterious, an enchanted cybernetic mountain range where mythical robots create timeless legends. Droning low and mid-range static subtly changes directions, morphing into undiscovered paths through pulsing squelch. The tracks are deceptively fluid, like standing still while the landscape runs past you. Though it seems like you haven’t moved, in reality, you have traveled deep into the noise forest, danced with holographic sprites and cyborg fairies, and made your way back to the land of humanity before becoming completely assimilated in the flowing electronics.
In a fit of sonic genius, Hiroshi Hasegawa has created one of those quietly loud masterpieces that demands attention with every listen. Put it on repeat and take the never ending journey.
