https://hiroyukichiba.bandcamp.com/music
2) planning events by inviting artists I respect; and
3) weekend tours.

4.What is your mission
I think my mission is to go to areas where noise music is not well known and perform there. I hope that the people who see my performance will overturn the image of noise music that is generally known. Above all, I hope that my performance will refresh the people who see it.

5.How do you want your listener to perceive you
This is a different answer to your question, but I practice every day and try to establish my own playing style. New instruments are released one after another, but if I can face the equipment and make it my own, I think I can perform well with minimal equipment. And I want to continue playing so that I don't have any regrets in my life.

6.Name of your other band members
I am a solo artist.
