Pan Sonic – Kesto (234.48:4)

Brian Close: When I started my career in motion graphics, I was working at Viacom / VH1 – music first – making on-screen graphics, anything moving on TV that was not footage. I bunkered down in a dark room in the middle of Times Square for like 12 hours a day – I slept there sometimes. This album was always looping on CD, played by KEE KOO, a friend of mine, and it really impacted my brain. At the same time, I was obsessed with Ryoji Ikeda. This wave of minimalism really smacked me.
