Toshio Mana
My staging ground for ideas I'm working on... Likely to be lots of stuff in various stages of completion. It will run the gamut, too - from experimental/abstract electronica to straight-ahed pop, proggish-rock to spoken word.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Pulling together some stuff, hopefully. Been really busy working on everyone else's stuff.
Your musical influences
Wow... Too many to name. From Bach, Schönberg, and Cage to U2, AIC, Queen, Missy, Prince, Slint, Postal Service... Uh... Just about anything I hear usually.
What equipment do you use?
Sukop bass, Takamine electro-acoustic, Fender 'Bullet', Reason and ProTools at the moment. Still trying to expand...

toshio is a hip musical genius whose brilliant tidbits on this site might benefit from some editorial snips, but you get what you pay for, and i am gratified with my investment of time spent listening to his work posted here.

Hey Tosh, remember me? It's Rachel, your old Oberlin compatriot. You have come quite a long way and I think your work is amazing. (You always were, though). I am so glad to be able to listen to your work. I hope you are doing well.
Daaaaaammmmnnn....
Dude, your stuff really rocks. I love how unique and experimental every song is, and how they're each completely different from the next. You're a very skilled and versatile musician; how are you not signed? That just goes to prove that people are signed for marketability and not talent.
But really, you're songs are great. I love how you have the explanation for trannyfag, it let me take that song a lot more seriously. And I love "Ghost of Roses." Overall your songs are just really, really cool. Keep rockin man.
Wow man. Its pretty awesome and very inspiring in many levels. Creativity being one of those. Your obviously very talented, a great voice and a great musician. Wow. I love the experimenticity of it all. Keep me updated. With a wkd name to accompany the sounds, you cant go wrong. Whats your story then man?
