*Tatsuya Nakatani* (percussion) is originally from Osaka, Japan. In 2006 he
performed in 80 cities in 7 countries and collaborated with 163 artists
worldwide. In the past 10 years he has released nearly 50 recordings on CD.

He has created his own instrumentation, effectively inventing many
instruments and extended techniques. He utilizes drumset, bowed gongs,
cymbals, singing bowls, metal objects, bells, and various sticks and bows to
create an intense, organic music that defies category or genre. His music is
based in improvised/ experimental music, jazz, free jazz, rock, and noise,
yet retains the sense of space and beauty found in traditional Japanese folk
music.

In addition to live solo and ensemble performances he works as a sound
designer for film and television. He also teaches Masterclasses and
Workshops at the University level. He also heads H&H Production, an
independent record label and recording studio based in Easton, Pennsylvania.
He was selected as a performing artist for the Pennsylvania Performing
Artist on Tour (PennPat) roster as well as a Bronx Arts Council Individual
Artist grant.

*High Mayhem is pleased to present the debut release of iNK oN pAPER.
Limited to 100 Handmade CD’s designed by Burning Books, this release is also
available via digital download dropcards.–Release Party and Tour Kick!*

*iNK oN pAPER* is a drum, bass, and electronics duo from Milton Villarrubia
III (drums and laptop) and Carlos Santistevan (bass and electonics). After
making music together as a rhythm section in numerous creative projects for
over 10 years, Carlos and Milt decided they would further hone their craft
in a duo setting exploring the vast possibilities of their respective
instruments. Both members play hybridized versions of their instruments with
Milton using Midi triggers on his drums to trigger samples and processing
using Ableton Live and Carlos incorporating analog live looping and signal
processing on his upright electric bass.

The result is a duo that is drags rhythm through the mud in unimaginably
glorious ways.
