Mr. Yamazaki Maso

Yamazaki Maso's work focuses on coupling over-the-top physical action with harsh noise created using just a microphone and the bare minimum of equipment.

Bio
	With the physical part of these performances Yamazaki would take his life into his hands - in tiny live venues he would run around like a madman, leaping into the air and flicking switches on his effects units as he landed. These were harsh and extremely violent events, invariably involving damage to both equipment and flesh. As a result, performances were usually curtailed after just a few minutes, but the effect of their moment-by-moment energy on anyone who witnessed them was intense. Yamazaki soon became known as the "jumping noise performer" and the "rock god of the noise world".
