I have many times, but since it's free improvisation it's always wildly different. I still do have a general idea of what I'm doing when I'm going to perform, though. A couple of tracks off of Distant Relative of Nihilism were live tracks.

Haino performs solo quite a bit, does one man band mean that they have to incorporate loops?



I think Evan Parker can make it sound like a horn choir is playing during a lot of his solo performances so that might count. On this one it sounds like he's also being mindful of his space.
