"Maru
has back with his second fulllenth on his Japanese ideology oriented
chmafu nocords. His eclectic unpredictable sound that u can find on his
first full lenth and on his many compilation appearances is here too.
You can not allow yourself to expect some particular sound on patience.
Thats why it is called patience. You have to be patient just listen and
let the sounds drive your thoughts thru unknown vast spaces of your
subconsciousness. There u will find fear, death, irrationality, chaos
and all that ideas that you are frighten to admit to yourself. This
album can be also seen as a soundtrack. Soundtrack of scariest days of
your live. when u r passing thru period of paranoia. Not a horror movie
but a horror reality. Mixed minds, confusion, irrational thoughts.
everything is here.
from the other perspective u can see this release as a step forward in
marufura fufunjirus music. It is quiet consistent in sound, without
rhythm and totally abstract. From ambiental soundscapes through noisy
parcels to incomprehensible undentified glitchy distant radio
frequencies. You can also find some vocal sample marks which task is
just to remind u where are you: ' maybe he should be taken to a doctor'.
Design of the release (which is work of maru itself) is very nice and u
can also find it with different alternative cover design. Also a remix
variant of patience with very provocative artists will follow.
Get ready for total eclipse of your mind."

"Horror noise rears
its ugly bubbling head , this time in the incarnation of Marufura
Fufunjiru .I can't really tell if the guy behind this release is
Japanese or just a wannabe that actually eats his cereal in Graz ,
Austria , but i wouldn't be surprise if it's actually the same guy who
runs the "Non Profit" (yeah , right) small label of Chmafo Nocords.
Anyhow , although geographical location has its' importance , we'll
focus here on the music ,
so your guess is good as mine.
This
is music that will make you confused , that's the only thing i'm sure
of. Your head will spin like you've just been hit in a seductive car
accident a la "Crash" by J.G Ballard. This is a sure prescription for an
ear hemorrhage , expect constant bleeding through listening to the
entire album. Marufura Fufunjiru loads layers over layers of shrieking
white buzzing noises and he never gets tired or fed up , nor my ears ,
who are more than curious to hear what kind of noize he's gonna abuse
next , what horrific samples (like on "Bath") we'll stretch the tension
to a new level of boiling insanity and how come he's allowing himself
to joke around with a surprisingly melodic tune all of a sudden and
goofy vocals on "Dhrugetsute" before it goes berzerk ? .once again ,
your guess is good as mine , but this is pretty good stuff."

Morning Star Verses
"Marufura
Fufunjiru is based in Graz, Austria, but he actually was born on planet
Venus. In his newest work, “Patience”, this artist presents what on his
planet is
called poetry.
In 72 minutes one can hear a traditional Venusian soirée of 17
pieces that are typical sonnets, ballads, songs, hymns, odes and elegias
from one of the brightest planets of our solar system.
On some of them,
like for example on the track “It Loud” there are even sampled human
voices that are obtained from radio and films.
If the sound of
the Venusian language is unintelligible to you, the album may sound like
a refined mixture of post-industrial, concrete, electroacoustic and
ambient music. But the Venusian metrics are much more complex than
simple sound drawings and sculptures that would be meaningful to the
human ear. On “Patience”, each verse is measured in degrees of
uncertainty so that each poem is a combination and an arrangement of
random alphanumeric variables. This results in uncountable phrases in
Venusian language and to us, humans, chromo-textural noises that satisfy
the desirous ears by the best avant-garde music.
Visit chmafu
nocords at http://nocords.net and acquire maru's albums “Patience” and
“Almost” as both are very rich anthologies of the poetic art from the
Morning Star."
Review
by N0-age
"Deep sea cyborg whales and dolphins lazily, druggedly signal each other ... immediately adrift, one's ears are the path to the soul snagged by the siren of sound manipulation ...
lullingness gives way to soft sounds of pain, if torture was muddled, relaxed, designed for your chillout ... is some gremlin vocalizing while time distorts down to slow around utterances of pain ...
one slowly becomes aware of the feel of life in all its forms coming to you distorted through a veil of soft static atmosphere ...
strange and interesting drifts of texture, some recognizable in a warp of its former earth life, some a soundscape of interdimensional noise transfer. Subdued but intimidating at times."
