Licensed from Irwin Chusid of the SUN RA estate, Cold Spring negotiated rare and unreleased tracks from the SUN RA archive to be remixed and treated by Masami Akita (MERZBOW). The tracks incorporate the jazz power of SUN RA, carried into brutal excess by the legendary Japanese noise artist, MERZBOW.

Originally released by Cold Spring a decade ago and long sold out, the music was spread across vinyl and CD, with completely different music on each format. Also included for the first time on any release is the bonus 1 minute track `Granular Jazz Part 5' which was a special composition created for the BBC Radio 6 show, 'Freak Zone', presented by Stuart Maconie.Collected here together for the first time, from the original masters, we proudly present this collection with expanded artwork in a 8-panel double digipak with 8 page booklet.
