    I bought this one a french small town flee market when i was in my last days of high school. I was a teenager deeply involved in cold wave, post punk and by the time the most extreme form of music i've ever heard was "Seele brent" by Einstürzende Neubauten.
    I had no idea what was on this record, but i bought it simply because it was rather cheap (believe it or not, the mid eighties had some good parts) and because this was the most amazingly beautiful artwork i've ever seen on a record cover. Man, this was a fucking graphit drawing !!
    The weirdness of it reminded me of Dada and Surrealism i was just dicovering, so i considered that anyone who would use such aesthetic for a record cover has to be good people.
    Still i've never heard of any of these bands, so nothing would really prepared me to the listening.
    Both sides, were the most unbelievable soundscapes i could have ever imagined. It was like dreams creating sounds. It came from nowhere i could think about. I was shocked, disoriented and delighted.
    I've found the most crazy record ever recorded. It was not even "music" it was "anti-music" as i fantasised then, and it was meaning the world to me. I was beyond all codes and rules of our culture, just by listening to this record ! What a turn of event.
    Then i discovered step by step, that this wonderful record was the tree hiding the forest. It was a door to a magic realm of explorations and experiences.
    All the music i would explore and love in my entiere life was concentrate in this record.
    From NWW side which is a mesmerizing trip in a worryed silence and the Organum side which is a saturated place where ghosts never stops to whispers, it was everything i could be in love with, when i had no idea about it before i would listen to this.
    After 40 years, this is still one of my favorite record ever. Finding out "a missing sense" was a sort of cover of Robert Ashley "Automatic writting" just add some more value to it, as it was also a door to all this experimental music that i love.
    This record is among the most perfect record i can think about, and i would never end advising to take it very seriously.
