 Liner Notes for the CD Ground Zero: Last Concert (written by Atsushi Sasaki)
In contrast to the phantasmagoric ensemble work of Ground Zero, the core of the new sound is an electric and based on sine waves; the sound of direct contact--even poor contact--with circuits; fragments of various recordings of today's frequency-synthesized and frequency-generated music; and the faint noises produced by the turntable and needle themselves.
Sampler artist Sachiko--who for some time after joining Ground Zero handled the elements of sound collage and sound effects--eventually quit altogether what we call sampling to move off in a unique direction, using the sine waves preset in the sampler as her only source of sound.
The kind of obviously cathartic and ecstatic elements heard previously in Ground Zero's performances are almost entirely absent--and even some self-avowed Otomo disciples experienced a sense of incongruity during the concert and felt dissatisfied on hearing the constant flow of sound.
