Float Back to the Surface

Atsuko Hatano is a contemporay classical Viola player who works with electronics to add textures and layers to her sound. Located in Tokyo, Japan, she is a commanding instrumentalist and composer who constructs innovative compositions with strings and layered electronics.

Cells #5 is an orchestral collection and sequel to her previous album Cells #2 which will also be released on cassette via Imprec’s Cassauna label. Cells #5 required three years to complete and the work features the artist’s signature methodology where the instrumental performances are gradually enveloped by multiple layers of a string orchestration. 

When not playing solo Atsuko is extremely active recording, collaborating and playing live with Jim O’ Rourke, Eiko Ishibashi, Mocky and many more acts.

PREMIERE: Nikus - Link [Sooner]

The hunt begins. And you are the prey.
The forest is silent, save for the desperate crunching of twigs beneath your feet. Something is out there. Something that doesn't breathe, but is hungry.

"Crimson Eyes" is the pulsating soundtrack to your worst nightmare. Feel the panic, hear the rustle in the undergrowth, sense the icy breath on your neck. The Darksynth beat drives you, but it also drives him.
He's about to catch you. His fangs glint in the moonlight.
Will you escape? Or will you become part of the darkness?
Hear the thrill. Hear the fear. 

Listen to "Crimson Eyes" now on Soundcloud and soon.... everywhere else.
