Aki Tsuyuko (γ’γγγ¦γ³) began taking electronic organ lessons when she was a child β one of the images in Hokane is a picture of a young Aki playing organ. βI think that everything I have experienced growing up in Japan is somehow an element of my music,β she says. In addition to her organ studied she practiced the classical Japanese dance "Nihon-buyo" lessons for 15 years. β I could not find pleasure very much in it, although I had been doing it for such a long time and grown to be skilled in a craft. I was excited by the movements of modern ballet, similar to the way that I had more interest in piano pieces than electronic organ's ones. However I think that the long experience of Nihon-buyo and electronic organ together influenced how I play and write music.β
In her late teens, Tsuyuko discovered and was influenced by Eric Satie's piano pieces. She began to play these pieces on electronic organ, interpreting them in her own way. It was through this process that Tsuyuko got into her own music and composition.
In the mid 90βs, she sent her music to Nobukazu Takemura, which lead to release of her music and years of collaboration between the two musicians. Tsuyuko has performed around the world singing and playing keyboards, and also creating video art and clay animation for their performances. Aki Tsuyuko has performed with Tortoise, Sonic Youth, Jim OβRourke, Brokeback, Yo La Tengo, and Arto Lindsay.
Hokane is printed in an edition of 2000.
