About TOMO (Transcendental Organic Magical Objective)
TOMO (Transcendental Organic Magical Objective) is influenced by "temperament" such as musical tunings, pitches, and harmonic overtone from many of various folk traditional and early music in all around the world,
While his understanding of folk traditional music has been enthusiastic, on the other hand, he pays attention to the relationship
between "temperament"and "stream of
consciousness" which is derived from sound, and uses aspects of minimalism, drone, ambient, and electronica as musical factors
based on his own interpretation. On the basis of these influences, he aims to reach the essence and roots of music.

Recorded: live on March 16, 2003 at the Beta Lounge in San Francisco
In 1967, San Francisco’s Fifty Foot Hose were certainly one of the
innovators of a sound that took Psychedelia to new heights and was
captured on the band’s one record, Cauldron. They are a totally
unique hybrid—on one hand pulsating bay area acid rock, on the other,
fractured electronic freakery, becoming one whole cohesive being. The
sci-fi-ish video game-like artwork hinted at the sounds within, as did
the Limelight label’s pedigree for truly progressive sounds. Band
leader, Cork Marcheschi, used homemade electronic devices to create
crude and experimental soundscapes and instrumental compositions that
were sprinkled throughout the album.
Often starting shows with a swelling rumble that exploded into the
first song, they soon developed a rabid following on the SF scene,
though there was the occasional totally wrong gig, like when a
very-pregnant Nancy had to perform at a Catholic Girls’ school! Still,
the group wowed the crowds, performing with greats like Chuck Berry and
Fairport Convention.
