Japan Sound Portrait Podcast 34

Japan Sound Portrait

Ahead of next week's BBC Radio 3 Exposure / Japan Sound Portrait event at Spiritland http://spiritland.com/events/bbc-radio-3-exposure-japan-sound-portrait-live/

we have a special podcast including interviews with two of the featured artists who will be performing - Hatis Noit and Midori Hirano/MimiCof. Hatis Noit is a vocal performer inspired by Japanese classical music, opera, chanting and avant-garde and pop vocalists. Her debut EP is released on Erased Tapes on March 23rd. https://www.erasedtapes.com/artist/hatis-noit

Midori Hirano is a Berlin-based musician, composer and producer. She started learning the piano as a child, and this triggered what was to later see her study classical piano at university. Therefore her productions are based on the use of acoustic instruments such as the piano, strings or guitars, but yet experimental and an eclectic mixture of modern digital sounds with subtle electronic processing and field recordings. http://midorihirano.com/
