Kenji Siratori/Gorgonized Dorks split cdr





Kenji Siratori is a notorious Japanese writer of experimental sci-fi/cyberpunk exploring the limits of the printed form in an era of sensory and information overload in the digital era. His book Blood Electric is a masterpiece of cut-up forward-thinking prose ready to devour its own carrier, the book, as Siratori doesn't stop writing and the letters reach the tip of pages. If anyone has read his collaboration with Gary J. Shipley Necrology, which I really wanna read, please share your thoughts (Shipley is another amazing author pushing the agenda forward-his Dreams of Amputation is sublime).

Siratori also does experimental/noise music. In the past I had listened to some of his collaborative, one with a Dutch noise musician whose name eludes me at the moment, and with Henrik Nordvargr Bjorkk and Beyond Sensory Experience, in which he narrates in Japanese his prose over dark ambient music, and creates an immensely dystopian vibe. In this cdr, he offers a track of distorted noise and irregular pulses, like a series of broken circuits in a huge machine. Gorgonized Dorks, a band from South Carolina, is on the flipside, playing blistering harsh noise/noisecore with an industrial touch. 2009 cdr on Smell The Stench.
