Like a Vagina

Masonna’s abundant productions on his own legendary and astonishing label Coquette were presented in very limited edition, sometime totally confidential (one sole copy), and reflect his predilection for 60’s psychedelic music revisited in its own very peculiar way.
He transforms his voice into noise, feeding the microphone back through a process of extreme distortion.
His shouts become clipped bursts of overloaded sound, doubled and extended by a delay that displace the sounds into stuttered blasts of static.
Like a vagina is one of Maso's first recordings and was released on cassette on his home label Coquette in 1988.
The original cassette is graphically provocative and contains a long track on each side.
Although quite immature as recordings, we are faced with a real discovery, what will become an exceptional blast of vigor and revelation from Japan!
Masonna surpassed all extremes with a full frequency violence that was as fast as it was psychedelic.
Explosive few seconds of visceral feedback, fast and beautiful and focuses an electrically overcharged universe then awesome screaming create a complete audio assault.
A revelation and terrific listen from start to finish, not to mention a crucial addition to the canon of Japanese noise music and its shadowy history that radically challenges and expands the terms of movement’s definitions.

Limited edition of 299 copies.

Two long untitled tracks.
