I’ve Been Remiss...but Now I’m in Remission

 

Caught with my pants down over Mori. I have previously professed my undying love of Ikue Mori & all things Morimusikal. Yet somehow I slid this set on to the back burner from whence after a time it ended up buried in the mountainous heap of dirty dishes.

Way back in December of 2007 I posted up another no-wave offering. This time in the form of DNA. In April 2017 came the first request to post up DNA On DNA that I had mentioned in the by then ten year old post...again from another commenter March 2019...then lastly June this. Well here goes. 

A smoldering slab of some 32 tracks of DNA no-wave goodness. 

(I’ve included a few other gems of twisted double-helix to pay for the cost of failure on this blogger’s part...A Taste of DNA, which are tracks 7 - 12 on DNA On DNA, but here from the original vinyl & Last Live at CBGBs, of which only tracks 31 - 32 are included on DNA On DNA)

DNA - DNA On DNA, No More Records No. 12, 2004.
