Kyoka

Kyoka was one of  the first woman  artists to be signed onto Germany’s  raster-noton and works as a musician/composer in Berlin and Tokyo. Known for her chaotic yet direct musical approach focusing on experimental yet danceable rhythms, she grew up in Kanazawa Japan, and underwent piano, flute and shamisen lessons as a child, while simultaneously discovering her passion for tape recorders and field recording. Inspired by her residency at EMS studios in Stockholm, her latest record >>SH<< showcases Kyoka’s uncanny ability to deftly handle repetition, chaos and unforeseen slants in pulse shifting  with spontaneously  jagged precision.
