  • Bio

    kyoka – the first solo female artist on the raster-noton roster works as a musician and composer in berlin and tokyo. she has been releasing music since 2008 and is known for her chaotic, direct approach and a heavy-rough sound resulting in a broken pop-beat with experimental yet danceable rhythms. ish means "around", "like" or "about" and reflects her way to be clear by being vague – brightness wrapped in a blanket of obscurity and abstractness. the ep was produced by her longtime friend frank bretschneider and a remix was delivered by atom™ to tune the first track hadue to the dancefloor. ryuichi sakamoto underlines the exceptional talent of kyoka: "panic! it sounds like a toy box turned up side down. how can she make such pretty & chaotic sounds!? i love it!" :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ドイツのraster-notonの12インチシリーズ「unun serise」より、レーベル史上初の女性ソロアーティストとなるKyokaの作品をリリース！ これまでに坂本龍一等とのStop Rokkasho 企画、及び、chain music、Nobuko HoriとのユニットGroopies、Minutemen/The Stooges のマイク・ワットとのプロジェクト、onpa)))))レーベルから3枚のソロアルバムをリリースと主にヨーロッパで活躍してきたベルリンを拠点とする Kyoka。ポップと実験要素がカオティックに融合された大胆かつ繊細なサウンドは、これまでも世界の多くの人を魅了してきましたが、本作ではKyoka の長年の友人でもあるFrank Bretschneiderをプロデューサーに迎え、キュートな声のサンプルやカットアップと男前なミニマルビートが絶妙なバランスで構築されたダンサブルなトラックを披露しています。Atom TMによるリミックスも１曲収録！ 「どういう音楽を聴いてきたら、こういうものを作る女性になっちゃうんだろう？」 〜坂本龍一〜

Bio:

.. " Sensibility plays a central role in the work of Kyoka who likens the process of producing musical compositions to the creation of crystals out of finely ground sound powder. A magazine once described her as a freestyle broken pop beat artist, her style has seen her labelled as anything from a pop idol to a noise artist. Her fans range from the Japanese experimental king Ryuichi Sakamoto to Stooges/Minutemen bassist Mike Watt, who played her music almost every time of his recent podcast shows and who recorded bass for her sound. "
