Drumming on Water is a series of posts regarding my research of - and experiences within - the Japanese electronic music scene. Most of the artists featured here are based in Tokyo. Among the artists covered are Toshimaru Nakamura (aka No-input Mixer), Keiichi Sugimoto and Tetsuro Yasunaga (from Minamo), Sawako, and Chihei Hatakeyama. Various personal experiences are also documented, but only when related to Japan and its music and culture.
