By 1993 the landscape was entirely transformed, the infrastructure of international noise exchange was in place, and Nord's recordings of that later period arrive already speaking a more established language. To hear both ends of that trajectory in a single cassette - and all the gradations between - is to hold the history of Japanese experimental sound in a concrete, tangible form.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVanilla Records, 1994\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cKe9q96n93k?si=14rtQu9bU_UWdioi\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"naturestripstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48209157488881,"sku":null,"price":24.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/8859\/0065\/files\/nord_livematerials.jpg?v=1779426179","url":"https:\/\/naturestripstore.myshopify.com\/products\/nord-live-materials-1980-1993-cs","provider":"naturestripstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
