Prolific Japanese artist Masami Akita aka Merzbow teams up with session musician, producer, and singer-songwriter Eiko Ishibashi for a work that showcases yet another side to Akita's monumental catalog. Kouen Kyoudai consists of two side-long tracks that could be read as a contemporary take on the traditional avant-garde. With it's skittering electronics, percussion, piano, doom, and noise, Kouen Kyoudai seamlessly incorporates many strands of experimental thought and practice. The tension that arises from the human use of the tool is made explicit as these works unfold in a storm of ecstatic human/instrument/machine interaction. Drums hammer alongside an ecstatic drone. Notes on a piano jostle with a storm of splintered electronics. Kouen Kyoudai highlights the pull between beauty and chaos; structure and the abyss - leaving behind a thrilling display of the interplay between the human and the technological while opening up new paths for both musicians involved. Masami Akita: noise electronics, computer, drums. Eiko Ishibashi: piano, drums, synth. Recorded at Gok Sound and Super Deluxe, Tokyo. Recorded and mixed by Jim O'Rourke. Cut at Dubplates & Mastering, Berlin 2015. Photography by Shunichiro Okada. Design by Jacob Cates.

Tracks:
1.1 Slide - Masami Akita ; Eiko Ishibashi
1.2 Junglegym - Masami Akita ; Eiko Ishibashi

Bad quality. Stopped working within a month.
Color: Blue
This watch stopped working the day after Amazon accepts returns. I had only worn it twice. I had another similar watch which worked fine. I don't see any warranties from the manufacturer for this item. So a waste of money. Also for the 30 day return - I received this on January 11, it is February 11 - I should be able to return for refund.

Must wind the time adjustment knob in for it to work!
Its a gorgeous watch and I love the clasp design and band material. It works if you: 1. wind the time adjustment knob with the knob IN/towards the watch 2. pull out the time adjustment knob and wind the side button to change the time or 3. shake it hard- it starts and stays moving easily after that if you are walking/swinging your hand around. I dont know how long each wind/twist lasts but winding it (knob in) will keep it moving even if its just sitting. Options 2 or 3 only keep it moving temporarily. The band and clasp are really smooth and comfortable. The watch itself isnt too thick and the band is extremely easy to adjust to a custom fit (screwdriver and instructions included for adjusting the clasp location). Its really comfortable for an all day wear, is subtle for everyday wear but classy when looked at up close. For under $35 this is a gorgeous, simple watch and significantly cheaper than most of the others I've looked at. Havent tested under water yet though
