Review by Irmita Gomez

Kapotte Muziek Merzbow's album "Works 1987-1993" is a must-have for fans of experimental music. The album features a collection of tracks that showcase the unique sound of the collaboration between Kapotte Muziek and Merzbow. The music is a fusion of noise, ambient, and industrial, and is characterized by its raw, unpolished sound.

The album is a journey through different soundscapes, from the abrasive and chaotic to the eerie and haunting. The tracks are all instrumental, and each one has its own distinct character. The use of unconventional instruments and found objects in the music adds to its unique appeal.

The production quality is excellent, and the album has a cohesive feel despite the diversity of the tracks. The musicianship is impressive, and the skillful use of electronics and sound manipulation creates a sense of otherworldliness.

About Kapotte Muziek Merzbow

Kapotte Muziek was founded in 1984 by , then living in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. Soon he was joined by Christian Nijs, who also lived in Nijmegen. They did not actually play together, though: Christian would record all the sounds at home on cassettes and give them to Frans, who would manipulate the material in different ways (pitch-change, loops, etc.). This way of working (using 'second-hand' material and recycling it endlessly) became the core of the activities of Kapotte Muziek. In 1987 Christian left the project in favour of playing rock-music in a real band. Until 1993 Frans continued the project on his own through the series, inviting as many musicians as he knew to send in material to be recycled. This resulted in collaborations with groups like , , , , , and many others. Gradually, the harsh territory of industrial music was left behind and other forms of electro-acoustic music were explored. Kapotte Muziek still exists as a studio-project of .
