Erupting onto the scene sometime in 1996, ‘Apache 61’ is total Brain Dance
music produced by Mieko Shimizu, a Japanese ex-pat living in Brixton, South
London. It’s unashamedly driven by it’s rhythmic core – layers and layers of
cross woven breaks, and shattered percussion, battling shards of sub bass.
Through this brutal backdrop she manages to interleave magical, stateless
melodies, rich harmonics and ambience drawing from the fringes of the
avant-garde. She somehow articulates a paradox; one that leads the
imagination somewhere totally unlimited.
Since the first single and album released in ’97 on Daisyworld, the label
run be ex-YMO synth genius Haruomi Hosono, Apache 61, dubbed by the press
as the Japanese female Drum’n Bass Ninja, has been performing all over UK &
Europe - crossing over the art and music scenes.
