Stephen is hard at work, transferring old recordings of Nagamatzu from minidisc (sourced from original cassettes). You can find them at their Bandcamp page but I wanted to highlight this one in particular, which is the first time we played live. We used the Ferrograph Logic 7 reel to reel recorder for backing tracks, with various guitars and Dave Campbell’s jet flanger (thanks Dave!).
Jo Farrell did a reading of a short text written by me after the first track (thanks Jo!).
Here it is, in all its glory

The ‘studio’ at Du Cane Court, in Balham, South West London, where I recorded and arranged many albums and tracks including ‘False Dawn’, ‘Die Datenschleuder’, ‘Knowledge’, ‘Prismatic’, the Lagowski Chromium Industries 12″ series, Nagamatzu and engineered Lustmord, Terror Against Terror and Isolrubin BK. That is Lustmord’s Akai keyboard in the foreground, which we used as a MIDI controller and sampler. A while after this, I got a Yamaha DX11 to control my MIDI equipment and sold the TEAC 8 track and Seck 12-8-2 mixer to Paul Rooney, the guitarist from Vice Squad.
