Both artists employ numerous extended techniques exploring an array of sounds and textures heralding modern and early eastern and western folk traditions. The collaborations are fiercely intensive, concentrated duets where both players utilize prepared techniques composed in set time blocks. Each player is then assigned a specific set of tools to manipulate various parts of the instrument and are assigned set tunings, microtonal or otherwise. Their use of instrumental augmentation, movement and presence are captivating to witness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528682142682-63CKQORWOWLCWGGHM82Y/18121952_10155018284571013_7849433683760038631_o.jpg Sonnet | Matsumoto https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528508909948-05Z9SJIQWVWHABBKSLNH/sonnet Sonnet | Matsumoto https://kotosounds.com/rain daily 0.75 2018-06-08 https://kotosounds.com/koto-theremin-and-flute daily 0.75 2018-06-09 https://kotosounds.com/collaboration-among-japanese-music daily 0.75 2018-06-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528678140442-OZXG9W1FK9OMNN18EAMK/91ec9-img_5613.jpeg Collaboration among Japanese music https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528678230423-8N6424Z8DEG9KG6RPWMT/91ec9-img_5613.jpeg Collaboration among Japanese music https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528678230521-E8AU9AMQ41O2QKGT4WSB/99978-vico2.jpg Collaboration among Japanese music https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528678236655-52LXGNMGMI4USVQSQ8VJ/may12poster.jpg Collaboration among Japanese music https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528678239747-DBWLVAK6NFSZUMSA5LBS/ac500-flyer1.jpg Collaboration among Japanese music https://kotosounds.com/shape-and-reason daily 0.75 2026-03-02 https://kotosounds.com/pashan daily 0.75 2018-07-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528514494656-XI6V1RJVPHOUN1OFJU46/20170428_1.jpg Pashan | 爬山 | ぱしゃん | パシャン https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528514342291-CLS5PBK3R4HDS6KLX26P/16113195_10154726956211013_423501001103175890_o.jpg Pashan | 爬山 | ぱしゃん | パシャン https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528514194572-WPSGHY6U3H5PRP5Z4VXN/20170428_1.jpg Pashan | 爬山 | ぱしゃん | パシャン https://kotosounds.com/interface-koto daily 0.75 2018-08-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528616134105-RJ9E1UQ8GQ2L57UQXXX2/Screen+Shot+2018-06-09+at+23.18.17.png Interface Koto https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528613107232-VPHW82NKKGKMX224K9HJ/picsart_1454831047667.jpg Interface Koto Piezo Sensor attached on the koto bridges https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528613236358-JUV95F72UI80NI8LV42A/12465875_10153719438541013_6254806393482216874_o.jpg Interface Koto Observing the MYO orientation data https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528613307620-VJ5IJ3D3GRUPYJL8GSTG/20160217_224826.jpg Interface Koto Wearing MYO https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1528613503467-WU182209KN2L7YFPI0ZR/13173911_10153998753966013_5616014932144756362_n.jpg Interface Koto IR sensor attached to the ryukaku (the end bridge) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b18a1cc31d4dfed600bdb2c/1531872324037-BGXZNXIFNCL3510K7TQ4/screen-shot-2016-05-31-at-7-36-25-pm.png Interface Koto 3D-printed koto bridge prototypes.

Each player is then assigned a specific set of tools to manipulate various parts of the instrument and are assigned set tunings, microtonal or otherwise. Their use of instrumental augmentation, movement and presence are captivating to witness.
