Chances are, one tenth of a person out of every ten in the street--one in a hundred, to the layman--has tinnitus, a condition in which the sufferer hears a ringing or pulsing sound not caused by any external stimulus. Most often tinnitus drives people up the wall, and, consequently, to seek professional medical or psychological assistance. The ringing in his ears drove Makoto Kawabata of Acid Mothers Temple Soul Collective to his garage. There was the auspicious beginning - with a handful of handmade instruments and a borrowed synth and some friends - he began the making of the kind of music he'd always wanted to hear but had never been able to find.
