Three tracks from the production of Konchuuki (Essence Music, 2015). The 28-minute centerpiece employs oscillator-modulated rhythms from a vintage Mach Rhythm Box RB-801, creating distinctive rhythmic patterns throughout—the album title references this equipment.
New oscillator synths and drone machines create uneven noise acoustics and drones with shifting graininess, introducing fresh sonic colors to the Merzbow palette. The first track title "Fuyumushi" (winter insect) connects to the insect themes that would culminate in Konchuuki.
