shock: the fucker/dr smegmatic

Shock -- the confounding "noise/free jazz/what the?" label run throughout the '90s by ex-Skullflower/Whitehouse/Ascension man Stefan Jaworzyn -- is back with a new series of limited 12"s. This is a 30-minute introduction to the new world of Shock, a jarring departure observing lessons in repetition from Brion Gysin's calligraphic paintings to Cabaret Voltaire's Three Mantras to '90s minimal techno, and with an incredible cut by Noel Summerville that picks up every detail of the mostly analog synth manipulations.
