Artist Biography
Available in: gb icon
"Behind the Shadow Drops" is the new solo endeavor from Takaakira ‘Taka’ Goto, founding guitarist and composer of iconic Japanese experimental / post-rock group, MONO. The first album has been released on September 22nd, 2017.

Established in 2016, Behind the Shadow Drops combines Goto’s disparate but commensurate interests in many different forms of music, most notably ambient, trip-hop, industrial minimalism, and modern classical. Recorded at Goto’s home studio and mixed with esteemed producer and percussionist, John McEntire (Tortoise, The Sea and Cake, Yo La Tengo), "H a r m o n i c", his first album which has been released in September 2017, merges Goto’s dynamic, moody compositions with McEntire’s renowned drum programming and percussive sensibilities. What begins as a passing resemblance to the more melancholy work of Goto’s ensemble, MONO, slowly mutates into something otherworldly, submerging in a symphony of synths, drum machines, noise loops, and mournful strings (courtesy of Los Angeles experimental cellist, Helen Money). Resembling something like waves rippling in the ocean under a cloudy moonlit sky, "H a r m o n i c" is as eerie as it is beautiful – a vast abyss punctuated by seemingly endless glimmers of light.
After releasing the debut album, Taka went on a Europe and Asia tour.
