Performed by:
MERZBOW (Masami Akita) – laptop

“If music was sex, Merzbow would be pornography.” (Masami Akita)

Merzbow is the recording name of the most well known Japanese noise artist. Inspired by Dadaism, Surrealism, and Futurism, and on the other hand, by the Japanese strain of Japanese sado-mazochism, Merzbow has been continually fascinated by noise as both sonic detritus and vehicle for spiritual ecstasy.
At the Making New Waves festival Mezbow will play together with a genre-crossing, young Hungarian acoustic drum player, Balázs Pándi.
