I have some stuff on soundcloud that i did a few years back (search ahonoe). Lately I've been doing some glitchier, noisier, more improvised stuff that doesn't bear much resemblance. I'll let you know when I've gotten around to editing it into something listen-able.

How about you? Can I hear your music somewhere?
