BIOGRAPHY

Prolific as a live performer, Mayuko Hino is most well-known for forming C.C.C.C. (Cosmic Coincidence Control Center) in 1990, together with Hiroshi Hasegawa, Fumio Kosakai and Ryuichi Nagakubo. In its early phase, the band grabbed attention by combining noise music with Hino’s sadomasochism performance using bondage ropes and dripping candle wax. C.C.C.C. released their European debut CD 'Flash' on Cold Spring in 1996.

Mayuko feels strongly about noise being an emotional outlet rather than an intellectual outlet. She has also pointed out that those artists who approach noise in this way end up with a very distinctive sound - a listener should be able to learn about the artist's personality from hearing their noise.

In addition to self-made instruments, Mayuko Hino plays noise with her six-theremin oscillators (in bright pink) – the one and only in the world, specially made by Ryo Araishi (a.k.a. ichion). She is also a member of Mne-Mic, DFH-M3, and Transparentz.
