Aki Onda
 

She's soo good. I just got into her recently and I'm listening to "for the birds". Anybody else into her stuff?

Yes, but I only have the one track on a comilation and a copy that a mate made without any songtitles or anything. But yes, you are not alone.

Aki Onda is a guy....., yeah he is pretty interesting, I have not heard very much from him, I need to hear more! He produced mono's second album One step more you die, and did a pretty good remix of one of their songs.

I stand corrected. As I said, I'm just getting into him, I like what I've heard. I'm planning on picking up another record in the near future.

Nothing better than dragging up a 14 year old thread : )

Earlier this year I ordered: Aki Onda - I Lost My Memory (book & recordings)

“24 Page, saddle bound artist book featuring essays by Aki Onda and Daniel Wilson, plus extensive photography from Aki Onda's Cassette Memories project. This edition includes bandcamp download codes for all three volumes of Cassette Memories which will be emailed to you within a couple of days of ordering. This edition is limited to 200 copies.“

Ancient And Modern Cassette Memories Volume One

Bon Voyage Cassette Memories Volume Two

South Of The Border Cassette Memories Volume Three

Don't think that this is correct. According to discogs he produced the remix album New York Soundtracks. Anyway, this made me listen to Mono again, to which I'm thankful. Goddamn, Com(?) is so good, playing loud on headphones!

So I'll check him out as well

So I just finished the Aki Onda Invite Le Guitar Hero : Loren Connors podcast for webSYNradio from 2011. It’s 2 hours and 39 minutes of unbelievable guitar work.

“Aki Onda program for webSYNradio: aki Onda plays Loren Connors, Aki Onda invites his friend, collaborator and guitar hero LOREN CONNORS. 34 titles, more than 2 and a half of music, the oldest in 1976 and the most recent 2011.“
