Notes

Zaireeka is an experiment with multiple sound sources, listener participation and new dimensions of sound.
Warning: this is a unique recording. These eight compositions are to be played using as many as four compact disc players, and have synchronized start times. This recording also contains frequencies not normally heard on commercial recordings and on rare occasion has caused the listener to become disoriented.
This set consists of 4 CD's but each disc contains different parts of the same eight tracks. So the tracklisting consists of only these eight tracks.

Zaireeka was recorded in Cassadaga, New York, April - August of 1997.

If you rip this CD into iTunes it will incorrectly label all the CDs as Disc 3. If you miss this during ripping, you can verify which CD is which in iTunes by playing track 1; you will hear a man say "track 1" and then the number of the disc which is playing. This serves to synch the discs when playing all four simultaneously (which is kind of the point).
Also, the booklet recommends listening to Disc 2 when playing just one disc as the other three discs have extreme frequencies which can have unwanted side effects, perhaps not so good for motor vehicle operators, surgeons, airline pilots, etc. Also young children.
