Mikhail Chekalin, a Soviet experimental artist born in Moscow, who has been active in the underground since the 1970s, composing music for mainly theather and exhibiting his work in impressive exhibitions, and by the 1980s he was well known to many artists both domestically and internationally. This album is part of a series of past recordings that were all released in 1991. The recordings were made between 1981 and 1983, and contain surprised and intricate sounds from unmixed single concert sessions. From clear electronic sounds to enchanting electronics that sound like a crumpled up German electronics. It has developed in a unique way that you will not find anywhere else.

モスクワに生まれ、70年代よりアンダーグラウンドな活動を続けながら劇中音楽の作曲や展覧会でも印象的な展示を続け80年代には国内外の多くの芸術家には知られる存在だったいうソ連が生んだエクスペリメンタル・アーティストMikhail Chekalin。本作は91年に一挙リリースされた過去音源をまとめたシリーズのひとつ。録音は81年から83年のもので、ミックスなしのシングルコンサートセッションによる複雑に入り組んだすっげえ音源を収録。クリアな電子サウンドからジャーマンエレクトロニクスをぐしゃくしゃにしたような魔境系エレクトロニクスまでどこにもない独自の発展を遂げたサウンドがここに。
