Tot Onyx's first full album Senno I is out on iDEAL Recordings today!
>> Senno I <<
Things that don't exist, that don't seem to exist, or we don't believe exist, might be the only things that actually exist.
Things that i always believed that existed, seem to be an illusion.
And things that i always denied the existence of in the past, seem to be what shape reality and rule the world.
But what is reality? And what is illusion?
Is the reality i am seeing the same as yours?
Perhaps not.
粘enno I is the solo debut album by Tot Onyx aka Tommi Tokyo, who has been a founding member of the Japanese performance art/live electronics duo group A since 2012. They incorporated the use of the body in their noise and poetry-performances and they made some resonating appearances at festivals like Berlin Atonal.
Adept at bending expectations, both live and recorded, the band痴 formative early work echoes the experiential vocabulary in which Tommi continues to develop today.
A practice in the rejection of tradition and clich, which in Greil Marcus's words, "Share the principles of negation, rebellion, destruction and d騁ournement.
Tommi Tokyo has worked in graphic design and photography and has worked for theatre and other forms of stage arts. Tot Onyx is her deeply personal project which shares the founding energies of group A, but is traveling deeper and elsewhere. This is a rich study of her interior life.

!! Special live performance >>The Sound of Your 3.11<< to be
streamed this Thursday 14.04.2022 !!
Some of you remember the open call last year for submissions of your sound of 3.11 which was set on the occasion of 10 years anniversary of the great Tohoku earthquake and Fukushima disaster. I was overwhelmed by the amount of submissions i received, made a great impression and hope for my experiment in socially engaged projects.
My idea of live performance using only the submissions of this open call was welcomed by D2021 (evolved from NO NUKES Festival '12-'19 founded and lead by Ryuichi Sakamoto and Masafumi Gotoh) and it was realised last month at the legendary venue Soup in Tokyo. We were unable to have audience due to the corona regulations at that time, instead the whole performance of the day will be streamed this Thursday. I sincerely applaud everyone who has been involved in this project, including all of you who kindly submitted your sound, the wonderful team of D2021 and one and only greatest sound engineer of Soup, Nishiyama-san.

OPEN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS FOR THE SOUND OF YOUR
On the 11th of March 2011, the most powerful earthquake recorded in Japan occurred in T?hoku Region (Northeast Japan) and the Tsunami that came right afterwards led to Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Disaster. The whole event has killed nearly 20,000, over 2,500 went missing, over 6,000 got injured. Nearly half a million people were forced to evacuate at the time and over 40,000 are still not able to go home today.
I still remember the day as if it was yesterday. All the stories i've heard, seen and read in the last 10 years are the most horrifying and heartbreaking, and every year as 3.11 approaches i get a flashback of the shocking images which haunt me for days.
Tomorrow marks 10 years anniversary and I will be working on a project which i would like to have you participate.
I will be recording in my studio all day while channeling all the victims. Some of my fellow artists are joining me and will be also recording in their own individual studios on the day. What i would like you to do, is to record found sounds that you hear on the day. Find sounds that represent your thoughts and emotion in the air. Your everyday sounds might feel different. Sounds can be recorded from midnight to midnight in your own timezone on the 11th of March. You can use your phone, or any other device that is available to you.
I will later on weave all the sounds received into my own recordings to make a sound documentation of 3.11. How life goes on 10 years after the disaster. It's an audio letter for remembrance and in honour of those who lost their lives.
Format = WAV or MP3. Lengths = 10sec up to 2min.
Please put in the title of your file where you recorded the sound, name of the city, country etc.
Please submit your file here, you can submit anytime until the end of this month. Please type in your name as how you would like to be credited as a participant.
I will release the work later on and donate all the proceeds to the local organisations who are still working very hard in the T?hoku area. The detail will be announced with the release.
Notice: You waive all rights and ownership of your sound as you submit. Your sound will only be used for this project. By uploading you hear-by acknowledge no claims may be made towards any party regarding the ownership and use of the recording.
Looking forward to receiving your sound.

1st January 2021
Happy new year to you all. I hope you are all safe and healthy during the ongoing global pandemic. Here is an announcement on our current situation.
As the violinist Sayaka Botanic fell ill in 2019, i continued to work as group A on my own. Unfortunately we have only seen a little progress in her revcovery so far. Given a huge amount of time to work on my own in isolation during the pandemic, my work has started to grow as my individual solo project Tot Onyx. This project is what the band has naturally evolved into after 8 years of our first chapter of group A and we hope we'll keep evolving in the future! This is my life work and nothing will stop me from doing what i'm doing.
Please follow the new Instagram account @tot_onyx for news and updates. First solo album is expected to be released in the Autumn of 2021.
Thanks all for your wonderful support for the last 8 years and i hope to see you all again when we can all be at the same place to experience and communicate through music again.
Love,
Tommi

We're thrilled to introduce our new work in collaboration with Kat Day of The KVB which we are going to present for the first time tomorrow at A E N - Ars Electronica Nightline in Linz, Austria.
6 years ago my obsession for modernist architecture lead me to start studying photography, just about the same time when group A started to throw paints on stage in small punk venues and galleries. In the 3 years of my college life, i enthusiastically kept on visiting those in danger of being demolished and took thousands of photos some of which i exhibited and made a book for my graduation. Since then i have been looking for a way to integrate these works into my musical and performance expression as group A.
Based on our shared love of architecture, we attempt to reinterpret modernist architecture by integrating my photography works with Kat Day's 3D digital renders, which will be processed via analogue video machines to create living fragmentations of concrete constructions. The video will be manipulated live in response to group A's music, who will in turn respond with sound - a feedback loop of architectural distortions.
Kat Day -
Since studying Fine Art at Goldsmiths, architecture has been a constant subject of her investigations into the haptic perception of digital and analogue media. For her degree show, she created a playable video game version of a derelict dollhouse she found on the street in South London and throughout her time as one half of The KVB, architectural structures have appeared frequently in both Kat's live visuals and album artworks.

group A x Dead Slow Ahead present "PLANET A" at KlubR? at Roskilde Festival 2018 on 4th and 5th July.
"This year KlubR? presents a reinterpreted version of an universe that merges art and music. Inspired by the Science Fiction-trilogy ?ilith? Brood? by Octavia E. Butler, KlubR? will be moving into a space of cyborgs, aliens and hybrid beings, questioning what it means to be human in a time, in which it is too late to regress.
KlubR? wishes to examine how human? destructive behaviour changes the world, but intends also to highlight how the changing conditions have a potential of introducing new ways of being in the world, which questions hierarchical structures and opens to alternate perceptions of gender constructions."
Our recent focus and conversation about environmental concerns lead us to think about the human evolution in much larger scale. When we met up with our fellow visual artist, Dead slow ahead (CHE/DE), the question naturally directed him to experiment with and on own appearances, using photo montage technique in a 3D animation software, in order to create avant-garde human forms of the future. As a result, we have created our own imaginary post-apocalyptic world "PLANET A".
