Tip! Celebrating the 90th anniversary of the birth of Maki Ishii (1936-2003), we present "Electronic Convergence," a collection of his pioneering electroacoustic works. These tracks represent a crucial era in the history of Japanese electronic music, primarily produced at the NHK Electronic Music Studio around the 1970s. Ishii’s unique fusion of traditional Japanese aesthetics and cutting-edge technology remains incredibly avant-garde even today. In February 2026, special memorial concerts will be held in Tokyo to honor his legacy. Immerse yourself in the profound sonic world of one of Japan’s greatest modern composers.
