Received A Review For My First Solo Tape

I have been received a review for my solo C40 tape release on FRAGMENT from Vital Weekly!! Please read the review below! Very interesting and honored! Special thanks to Michael of FRAGMENT FACTORY.
(yellow tape with artworks from my own work "Unreadable Japanese Porn" and "Sickly Error Texts(a division)".)

----- THE REVIEW --------------------------------------------------------

YOSHIHIRO KIKUCHI - TEXT'S ABSENCE OPTICAL GLOOM AUDIBLE LIGHTS (C40 cassette by Fragment)
Yoshihiro Kikuchi utilizes electronic cut ups and processed percussion, alarms and samples - the beauty of this work is that the micro cut up electronics works wonderfully well with this medium, the sounds appear out of the tape like fragments of broken glass, again working within and with the constraints of the medium, without recourse to Tolkienography a work which resembles analytic cubism, yet to encompass the readymade reality of the synthetic.
