DJ Chaos X is one of the many aliases of Yamantaka Eye, better known as one of the founders of the noise rock group Boredoms. I posted an album "Planetary Natural Love Gas 19999", by DJ Pica Pica Pica, which was very well received here, so I thought that I would share yet another Yamantaka Eye release. In my opinion the album released under his DJ Pica Pica Pica alias is overall a much better album, although those who prefer rock may favor the DJ Chaos X release. You can find the DJ Pica Pica Pica album here: http://digitalmeltd0wn.blogspot.com/2010/02/dj-pica-pica-planetary-natural-love-gas.html
The DJ Pica Pica Pica release was an extremely eclectic album, featuring every genre under the sun. While "Live Mixxx" is also a well rounded release, it primarily leans toward a more rock oriented approach, featuring rock, punk rock, and experimental music. The Beatles, Suicidal Tendencies, Dow Jones and the Industrials, and Bad Brains are a few of the artists sampled on the album. The tracks on this album are very short in length. There are 45 tracks in just over a 50 minute time span. Each track averages a little over a minute in length, although there are several that are well under a minute.
To the best of my knowledge the tracks do not have names, so I will not be providing a track listing. Although if I am mistaken I would greatly appreciate it if someone could correct me and provide a proper track listing. I do know that very few CDs were issued for this release, but I don't have any figures for the exact amount that were released. The album is now out of print, and extremely difficult to find a physical copy.
Before I close this post, I would also like to ask everyone to please take the time to leave a comment. This isn't something that I normally ask people to do. Although it is always very encouraging and appreciated whenever you readers do post a comment, it doesn't upset me when a post doesn't receive comments, as it does with many other bloggers. If I'm not receiving many comments, I take it as a sign that I need to do a better job selecting material to share here. The reason I am asking everyone to take the time to comment is to let me know if there is a particular genre that they would like to see featured more on Digital Meltd0wn in the future, and if everyone enjoys the most recent material posted here, or if you prefer the material that I posted when I first started this blog (Punk, Psych, and Garage Rock). To those who will comment, I would like to go ahead and thank you in advance. I hope you all enjoy this rare gem.
Year of Release: 2006
Genres: Experimental, Punk Rock, Sound Collage
Bitrate: 192kbps

THANYOU! As a long time boredoms fan I already had the DJ pica album, but I didn't even know this one existed. This is the reason I love this blog so much.

ReplyDeletei've heard it a year before & still lookin' for a tracklist) SOMEONE PLEASE FIND IT! %)
You pretty much struck gold with this one. And keep up the rare music posts. Really enjoyed the Halloween-themed posts from 08.
ReplyDelete@Booby Mason: I'm not sure if there even is a tracklist. I can't find one on any site, even those that include track names for every other release listed.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous: I'm glad you're enjoying this album so much. You can expect another round of Halloween posts this year as well, starting at the beginning of October. I've always been a big fan of Halloween, and posting a ton of horror/halloween related items is a tradition here at DM. I hope you will enjoy some of the surprises I have in store for October.
Really looking forward to hearing this!
ReplyDeleteThought you might like this one too, it's a mix made by Eye to coincide with an exhibition of his.

Also, I'm hopefully going to get hold of his brand new mix, Sky Size Sea which came out last week but is only available from one record shop in Tokyo (as far as I'm aware), hoping a friend can help me out. Will put that up if and when I get it.

@Anonymous: Thanks for the info. Perhaps one day (probably in the distant future) I will have time to do further research on this album, and find all of the samples used throughout this album. If I am ever able to I'll be sure to update this post with the info.
ReplyDeleteThis is not much help, but track 2 sounds very much like something Ali Farka Touré would have recorded (pretty sure those are his trademark guitar flourishes).
ReplyDeleteTrack 5 is Artless Entanglements--"Dildos, Bondage and Toys" (from the Chunks compilation LP).
ReplyDeletetrack 3 is Spazz - Zodiak
ReplyDelete20 is final conflict-apocalypse now!
