2007 saw the album debut of Moskitoo
with 12kÆs Drape (12k1041). Since then,
Moskitoo (TokyoÆs Sanae Yamasaki) has
been busy performing live, recording and
releasing new work (including
sound/voice for Japanese
media/television and iOS apps) and
expanding her talents as a visual artist
in Japan. After six years of growth as
an artist she presents her sophomore
album, Mitosis.
Mitosis begins with ôWonder Particle,ö a
track that very much sums up MoskitooÆs
intentions: to embrace the digital with
not only a human, but a distinctly
feminine touch. Wispy, layered vocals
swim around rhythmic fragments and warm
insect-like noises. The music is strange
and otherwordly, perhaps the soundtrack
to an evening stroll on a warm night in
a bustling alien city. There are lights,
swarms of sound, a myriad of
conversations blended by a thousand
different stories of passers-by always
on the move.
The inspirations behind this second
album are not far away from these ideas.
Moskitoo herself was thinking of
journeys, even ones on the cellular
level. Mitosis, or the division of a
cell into two identical sets of
chromosomes, was a point of departure
for Moskitoo as she explored the ideas
of division, expansion, the human body,
and small particles of matter. One can
draw a correlation between these ideas
and her music as it nervously wiggles it
way through sounds both liquid and
electronic.
Mitosis is a dreamy, playful and serious
album that shows MoskitooÆs talents as a
sound explorer and songwriter. It is at
once both catchy and curious, a question
that doesnÆt always need an answer.
