Experimental sound collage/sample art turntablism by a trio of Christian Marclay joined at any time by two of the following: DJ Olive, Toshio Kajiwara, Erik M, Marina Rosenfled. These are recordings of live performances at various major municiple art galleries world-wide. All strange, blippy, sparse, challenging. Nothing noisy, extreme, though all certainly avante if not challenging.

1) starts sparse blippy electronic noises, turns sample collage, noisy, sample laden and weird fast
2) sample collage, musical sounds here and there
3) a bit harsher tones, good rumbling
4) spookier, synth oriented, lighter on the samples
5) spooky, creeps along
6) scratchy record sounds to begin, good tones through intense gated reverb, powerful, then noodles on for a ton of time
7) noisey samples
