Will Records is proud to announce its first release:

Speaker-busting, genre-defying improvisational noise musician “Hair Stylistics” (previously Violent Onsen Geisha) and juke/footwork inspired intricate irregular percussion expert “Foodman” aka ?????’s long-awaited collaborative project “Shokuchudoku Center ???????” (Food Poison Center) will finally released on new label “Will records”.

These two experimental Japanese artists teamed up to combine their unique sounds, edgy noise spectrum and intensive rhythms to create “Shokuchudoku Center ???????” (Food Poison Center).

Their respectively strong characters brought these two together and they met for the first time during “Tokyo Noise Theater”, a show held at the late, great Nishiazabu venue “SuperDeluxe” in 2017.

With a raging, wild, vicious sound, tempered by moments of lighthearted improvisation, their live sets serve both as a showcase of their character and a tool to crushing audiences.

This release was performed and recorded at venue forestlimit in Hatagaya, Tokyo as a joint recording session during summer 2020.

Amalgamative ideas together with repeated improvisation and overdubbing/sampling created a sonic record that displays each of their near-maniacal music senses.

Lack of perfection, the spirit of resistance and black humor are some of the notes emphasized, and are both mirroring and set against the backdrop of our present social situations and those which are deeply embedded in their life.

This human quality may be one of the reasons why this project engages the listener so effectively, whether or not this humanity and error are needed for our present era.

We hope you have the chance to witness their live set someday
