Hello Arthur, I did. Several years ago he played in Moscow during SKIF. Keshavan Maslak supposed to play at the first set, but all his documents were stolen in St. Petersburg. Dror Feiler played instead and it was the most terrible show I ever heard. Otomo played at the second set and it was just amazing. He brought a bunch of floppy single records from Soviet "Krugozor" magazine. All of them had some workers/peasants/communist leaders' speeches on one side and some music on another one. He put them in a surrealistic mix with his weird guitar, electronics, CD players, chains, etc. After about 20 minutes improvisation he stopped with the singles and played another peace of almost pure noise. Don't remember if there was a third composition, but these two were absolutely great. PS You can imagine my surprise when I saw him again at Tonic the other year and all his sounds were quieter than mosquito buzz. Saturday, June 22, 2002, you wrote to me: AG> Hello.
