British experimental musician JAMES KIRBY, known for various projects including V/VM, under the alias THE CARETAKER. The “Everywhere At The End Of Time” series, which has become a series of releases. 4–6.
Under the alias THE CARETAKER, British experimental musician JAMES KIRBY—known for projects such as V/VM—presents the “Everywhere At The End Of Time” series. Stages 4 through 6 have been released as a 4-CD set. With each stage, the melodies seem to disintegrate. They become mere afterimages, mingling with noise and chaos to produce a miraculous beauty. A must-listen. (Original Japanese text by Saito)
