2008 release ** "This is the first album by Mitsuru Nasuno (Altered States, Fushitsusha, Ground Zero, Korekyojinn, etc.), the top bassist in Tokyo's most cutting-edge scene, also known as the groove master. As the title suggests, the recording took place between 1998 and 1999. Two of the tracks (the third and fourth) were already included in the 10-disc box set "Improvised Music from Japan." This work is the complete version, so to speak. This complete version, which has finally seen the light of day, is a very rare work in which experimental sound production in the studio is at its core, but at its core there is a certain softness, kindness, and humor. Please also pay attention to the strong personalities of the different members in each session. The last bonus track (+1) is a demo recording that hints at the next work."
