And what is this lopsided industrial primitivism?

Where does it come from?

When you make indeterminacy the cornerstone around which to revolve your world, dispersion is just around the corner.

Wandering yearning, enclosed in a jar of oriental vegetables.

Is it possible that it's still edible? (turning the jar in his hands) “Packaged at the Inner Space facilities in Cologne (Germany) in 1972.”

I checked, it has no expiration date. Time has done nothing to this magical dish.

Open the jar and taste if you don't believe it!

You will find an impalpable and relentless rhythm. In the hands of Jaki Liebezeit, any percussion becomes a living organism. A circadian rhythm, a recursive heartbeat, a Krebs cycle.

You will find vitamins and minerals in a genuine soup of noises, to be heated for 5 minutes in a bain-marie or 1 minute in the microwave, excellent on its own or with a side of steamed rice.

You will find a hypnotic obsessiveness, even in the seemingly standardized song format. Long-lasting mesmerism. Damo Suzuki's voice can transform everything into gentle disparity and abyssal enchantment.

Okra is a rather peculiar vegetable: rough on the outside, sticky inside. The taste itself is not strange, quite the contrary. An ordinary vegetable, similar to asparagus, snow peas, or zucchini. What mocks you is the slimy texture. At first glance, it is off-putting. A bit like Can. Yet, its flavor is unparalleled: strong, spicy, hot, ferrous, sour. Just like Can.
