http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UlQ36yaxUg&feature=related
這是日本歷史久遠傳奇迷幻噪音樂隊“酸母寺”的吉他手兼創始人河端一（Makoto Kawabata）和法國地下硬件噪音界鬼才Dj Urine的全新組合。
話說河端一在新奧爾良的一次演出中與Dj urine相識，然後便產生了與其合作的意向。直到現在才有機會真正實施，並斷然以亞洲巡演做為開端。
綜合他們自己寫的介紹：首先,這是河端一在酸母寺之外，個人計劃的一部分。在這個二人組合裡，他主要用吉他製造出一系列刺耳的迷幻DRONE氛圍。 Dj urine作為資深黑膠碟片粉碎達人，日常破壞噪聲收集者，二人將攜手帶來：空間迷幻搖滾與扭曲拼貼的變體，加上被融化掉在異端的琴弦，harsh noise切割摻雜左右。似曾相識的重型硬搖滾風骨影響並遭遇瘋人院致幻劑的調戲，而最終又把一切打磨、揉碎、分散、直至消失在一片超驗的寂靜裡。
About the supporting artists:
Wong Chung-fai
Also known as Sin:Ned, an idiosyncratic improviser, experimentalist, live-visualist, mirco-curator and free-lance writer from Hong Kong. Also co-founder of the experimental imprint Re-Records, member of the electro-acoustic duo No One Pulse, and Advisor of soundpocket.
Being a veteran writer of the legendary Hong Kong alternative music magazine MCB (Music Colony B-Weekly), his writings had influenced a wide spectrum of experimental musicians and listeners. While not writing as a pseudo-music critic elaborating his esoteric worldview, in the same idiosyncratic fashion, he spends much of his time hacking and sculpting sonic materials with his laptop and various non-standard electronic gears. With his on-going experimentation embracing improvisation, noise, errors, chaos and randomness, he has been re-visioning an unorthodox sound-making process expressed in extreme dichotomies, and driven by intuition and direct experience.
He has offered performance and creative work for concert, sound installation, workshop, audio-visual and theatrical performance. He had taken part and performed in various art events such as HK Sound and Vision Festival (2003), Get It Louder (2007), Hong Kong & Shenzhen Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture (2007, 2009), Architecture is Art Festival (2009), Notch Festival 2009 Guangzhou Station (2009).

About the artists:
dj sniff
http://www.djsniff.com/
dj sniff (Takuro Mizuta Lippit) is a turntable musician working in the field of improvised and experimental music. His music focuses on the live reconstruction and narrativization of the phonographically amplified - the music, the sound, the technology and the past. To achieve this, he uses a unique setup of custom hardware and software along with one turntable and DJ mixer. He hopes he can reflect his influences from Hip-Hop and Free Jazz not stylistically but through an exploration of a distinct instrumental voice and practice.
He is also a concert/event curator for electronic music and a researcher of music technology.
While studying Art History and Philosophy in Tokyo, he was active as a DJ in the underground electronic music scene and formed a collective called smashTV productions which organized genre-mixing events such as anti-Gravity and bistro-Smash!. In 2002, he moved to New York to pursue graduate studies in computer music and physical computing at NYU's ITP (Interactive Telecommunications Program). During this period he released a handful of DJ mixes.
Since 2005 he has been involved with STEIM's (Studio for Electro-Instrumental Music, Amsterdam) R&D lab. From 2007 on, he is STEIM's Artistic Director, guiding the institution's creative output and representing its activities through performing and lecturing around the world.
In 2010, he released his first solo album "the play-back" through Lebanese label Annihaya. During the first half of 2011 his 2nd album based on Evan Parker recordings will be released from Parker's label Psi.
He regularly performs in projects with eRikM, Tatsuhisa Yamamoto, Astro Twin (Ami Yoshida & Utah Kawasaki), Adachi Tomomi, Keir Neuringer, Raed Yassin, Yutaka Makino. In the past he has played with Evan Parker, Otomo Yoshihide, Akira Sakata, David Toop, Martin Tetreault, Michel Waisvisz, DJ L?K?O, Ryu Hankil, John Edwards, Mark Sanders, John Richards, and many others.

Inter-Session
Three musicians from different backgrounds meet in the intersection between acoustic, electro-acoustic and electronic sound qualities. Feedbacks, field recordings and double bass create the raw material, which in pure or processed form is then transformed into a new soundscape. It is a soundscape of dynamic abstraction that invites the audience to enter a state of active listening. Given the distinct background of the three musicians, the musical language promises heterogeneity and multi-dimensionality: noise, drone, lower case electronica, energy, play, research and contemporary composition.

Klaus Janek _ Italy Double bass, Laptop
