OFFSEASON //// CINE-NOISE //// EN PIRE //// SYNDROME WPW

[OFFSEASON]







In the spring of 2007, Hiko of GAUZE, Atsuhiro Ito of



OPTRUM, and Kuro Pipe Stardust of KURO PIPE started a band



OFFSEASON. While rejecting to be impounded by any ongoing



music genres, OFFSASON tries to retroact their music to



the origins of the music of which they respect by putting



themselves in practice or more specifically as a movement.











Consequently, this concept has exhibited extremely unique



acoustical space. It is because of the unexpected and



quick changes of their performance and the continuous



emission of every beats and parts of the melodies



transmitted through its megavolume and visual flickers,



spawned by enormous amount of OFFSEASON



'S heat quantity.







OFFSEASON also actively sessions with other musicians.



Yoshida Ami (howling voice performer), Kazunao Nagata and



Naoki Nomoto (both of them are analog synthesizer players)



had joined and made significant sessions.







Since OFFSEASON started, they have self-organized event



'Rotten Room' in non-regular basis at the established



chanson house called



'Blue Room', introducing many of domestic and



international radical musicians.







In addition, the band's name OFFSEASON is borrowed from



Jack Ketchum



's same titled novel which continuously portrayed



unbelievable spectacles, set in the summer resort of



Maine, the US.

[Atsuhiro Ito (Optron, etc)]







Born in 1965.



Atsuhiro Ito launched his career as a visual artist in the



late 1980s, and in 1998 began presenting sound



performances at art exhibitions, most notably using a



musical device of his own invention, the optron.



A fluorescent light tube stuffed with small microphones,



when played like a guitar and plugged into an amplifier,



the optron generates both epileptic noises and flickering



lights to create a truly audio-visual experience. He



continues to refine the instrument while approaching sound



and music from a contemporary-art-based perspective.



In addition to his solo exhibition and performance



projects, Ito is active in a number of musical units.



(Optrum, Kazuo Imai Trio, OFFSEASON, etc...)



In between 2000 to 2005, Ito presented various sound



(music)/visual image-related events at Off Site, the



now-defunct gallery/free space in Yoyogi, Tokyo.

types of dancers, free jazz player, political activist and
