Japanese composer and percussionist Midori Takada is a true luminary in the world of ambient and experimental music, playing solo, in various groups and theatre productions. In the 1980s and 1990s, Takada devoted her craft to traditional African and Asian percussion with great success, culminating in her classic album ‘Through The Looking Glass’, which was reissued by WRWTFWW/Palto Flats in 2017. Takada shows that the elements of minimal music are not a new invention, but a recalibration of ideas that serves as a source code for music from all over the world.
