And He runs self label "Angakok", in 80's. His solos always featured a "stratosphere"sound. It was dazzling, deep, sometimes sad, and filled with endless hopes and prayers. These 3 tracks are his last recordings. It's so cool and emotional, deep drone music.  

Recorded 2017, his last recordings. Limited to 100 copies.

"Toukaseibunshi (Permeable Molecule) was an ultra-mysterious solo unit created by Hironari Iwata. Iwata was a footnote figure in the world of Japanese avant-garde/noise from the mid to late eighties. As well as Toukaseibunshi, he also recorded under the name Haiginsha, ran the Angakok cassette label and wrote for various magazines. There's an unshowy stoicism to Iwata's investigation of drone, clank and crackling sustain, a deep seriousness of purpose that beguiles as much as it confounds. -- Alan Cummings"
