Lee Renaldo & Christian Marclay - live at the Metro Kyoto Japan 3-25-2001



As described in the previous post, here is the Lee Renaldo and Christian Marclay set from the same night, alongside DJ EYE from Boredoms. Insane art-noise destruction, but very listenable, I recall enjoying the set, although I don't visually remember Renaldo's setup, which I describe as "weird boxes with knobs", I think they were like little hand-made guitar pedals... Marclay messed around with turntables and a mixer with fx, and had records with coins and other small objects taped to them to make the needle bump around. It was a fun set, and not nearly as deafening as DJ Eye's set to follow...
Original notes:
"Lee Renaldo & Christian Marclay
recorded live at The Metro in Kyoto, Japan, March 25.2001
34:36, 49.8M VBR mp3 made with CoolEdit

notes:
Lee Renaldo from Sonic Youth on guitars and weird boxes with knobs, Christian Marclay on extreme turntable destruction. The music at the beginning is the end of DJ Kazuma's set, and at the end the start of DJ Eye's (from Boredoms) set can be heard (available as a seperate file). At the end you can hear Lee yell to the crowd, "We're gonna take a break and let Eye spin records, then we'll come back and play more." Unfortunately I had to leave shortly afterwards, so I was unable to record their second set.

Recorded with a Sony MZ-R900 minidisc recorder using a Sony ECM-MS957 microphone"
