Yamaoka Yasuhiro
Biography
Around 1975, I taught myself how to play, in my own way, with the sound devices around me (musical instruments, turntables, tape recorders, furniture or anything). About 1981, I began to compile my work as an album on cassette tape, and loaned it to my friends. In 1986, I bought a synthesizer. From then, rather than creating sound collage work, my improvised playing increased, until around 1990, when my sound work slowed down. In 1994, I began to make DTM (DeskTop Music) with newly bought sequencer software and a PCM sound module for my Mac.
