Avec Avec

Avec Avec is the solo project from Osaka, Japan’s Takuma Hosokawa. He made his first mark on the Japanese underground music scene as a member of the duo Sugar’s Campaign, and in 2011 began producing solo tracks under the name Avec Avec. Mixing all aspects of electronic music into his productions, but focusing on the electro-bass found in some of the best 80’s synth-pop, Avec Avec released a number of bootleg, compilation, and remix tracks throughout his first year to universal acclaim. His remixes for bands like Golf, Seiho, and Brothertiger, as well as bootlegs of Japanese game show and Anime themes earned him a loyal online following and comparisons to Cornelius and Warp-era Bibio. He throws glitch, dubstep, house, hip-hop, and even pop into the mix to create songs that simultaneously sound cutting edge and retro and are almost impossible to not groove to. As Avec Avec adds additional releases to his resume, he should only increase his already impressive list of admirers. Read more on Last.fm.
