Rough Trade Amazon UK

akron / family spent the end of 2009 and half of 2010 exploring the future of sound through bent acid punk diamond fuzz and underground japanese noise cassettes, lower case micro tone poems and emotional cagean field recordings, rebuilding electronic drums from the 70's and playing them with sticks they carved themselves. upon miraculous resuscitation of the original akak hard drive, the album layers thousands of minute imperceptible samples of their first recordings with fuzzed-out representations of their present beings to induce pleasant emotional feeling states and many momentary transcendent inspirations. this album is titled 's/t ii: the cosmic birth and journey of shinju tnt.' we have no idea what that means.
