Getting ready for the Ayota gig at Village Underground on 22nd June as part of the Spitalfields Festival.

Its great to throw all the parts into Ableton and play it live..

I'm looking forward to performing this track with Jeremy Shaw on Guitar & Palm Skin Productions on Synths. There's gonna be a Fender Rhodes there too!

Hope you can make it..

RELEASE DATE: 29th April 2011
Ayota -
Sonen EP
PRIM-010EP
Japan is a very special place for me, where I have had some incredible experiences and been truly inspired by the people and culture. I have some very dear friends and close family from various parts of the country, so when I saw the shocking images of the Earthquake and Tsunami over a week ago, I was horrified. It was hard to imagine such a beautiful place being destroyed in such a short space of time. So in light of this event, Primaudial Records are releasing an EP from my Ambient Electronic project Ayota, featuring two brand new tracks. All proceeds of this release will go directly to the Japan Red Cross Tsunami Appeal.
You can purchase the EP NOW from Ski's Record Shop, or wait until 29 April 2011 to buy from iTunes, Traxsource, Beatport etc.
If you would like to review or play these tracks in advance of the release date, please contact the label giving full details.

Ayota Interview for Resonance FM Tom Chivers

This is an interview I did with Tom Chivers for his 'Penned In The Margins' Poetry show on Resonance FM.

It took place on 20th August 2006. It features 2 tracks from the 'Helicopter Cuts' album released on Third Ear Japan.

Ayota Ambient Mix Vol. 1

This is an ambient mix I put together a few years ago based around the sounds that influence my Ayota project .. something that might be enjoyed whilst basking on an Okinawan beach or bathing in a Hakone Onsen.
