An introduction to sound work by Yamaoka Yasuhiro. This is my brief synopsis.
Around 1975, I taught myself how to play, in my own way, with the sound devices around me (musical instruments, turntables, tape recorders, furniture or anything). About 1981, I began to compile my work as an album on cassette tape, and loaned it to my friends. In 1986, I bought a synthesizer. From then, rather than creating sound collage work, my improvised playing increased, until around 1990, when my sound work slowed down. In 1994, I began to make DTM (DeskTop Music) with newly bought sequencer software and a PCM sound module for my Mac. I then made about one composition a day. In 1995, I got sound waveform editor software, and slowly changed the way I worked from DTM with MIDI signal to HDR (HardDisk Recording) with sound waveform edit. Around 2000, my old Mac began to frequently crash, so I started working with a friend's Windows software. This change pushed me to make music totally in PC without using any other music hardware.

Now we're surprised a lots of response through this 1month since we've started myspace.
Thank you friends for warm messages from all over the world.
We've also asked about the shops where our CD sells, the way to download our songs.
But now we're not planning CD release and tours at outside of Japan.
So here is the free mp3 files to be downloaded you 6songs from 3albums.
I'd like you to see our plofile and download the files please.
We all welcome to be downloaded if you're not our friends, also are glad to tell your friends about us.
We believe that there is no border about music.
Very compelling works here. I found "ntr" really intriguing: from the rippling, "liquid" sounds in the intro, to the way the driving rhythm dissolves into chaos. Nice work!
