Cybernetic Defiance and Orgasm: The Essential Henry Kawahara

Henry Kawahara - Cybernetic Defiance and Orgasm: The Essential Henry Kawahara

Here is a portal to a vast and relatively unknown world, the Japanese cyber-occult underground media scene of the early 1990s; our guide is the late Henry Kawahara, a media artist and electronic music producer whose expansive and visionary conception of digital technology merged with a desire to break free of the constraints of mere rationality. This collection, the first-ever archival release of his work, is drawn from recordings released during the period 1991-1996, an exceptionally fertile time for Kawahara. Comes with a 36 page booklet and the CD release features two bonus tracks.
