Takahe Collage is an album by the Japanese noise musician Merzbow. The album is named after the Takahē bird.
"Tendenko" is a from the Sanriku Coast region. It teaches that in the event of a tsunami, to immediately go to higher ground, instead of trying to save other people or things. This is credited with saving lives during the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, since everyone was focusing on getting to higher ground.
"Grand Owl Habitat" likely refers to an assemblage by the surrealist Joseph Cornell. It was later released on an LP of the same name.
All music composed by Masami Akita.
