About this artist

Kawasaki-based shamanic improv duo, consisting of husband and wife Toshio and Shizuko Orimo. The group was founded in 1981, and released several cassettes during the eighties in a free-jazz meets noise meets beatnik poetry vein. In 1989 the group underwent a shift towards ambient ethnic drone/esoteric ritual, with Toshio playing stone flutes and ethnic instruments exclusively while Shizuko danced wearing a mask.
The group is still active.
