Bonika Soda is improvisational music by Bonika and Yasuhiro Soda.
Bonika, influenced by YMO and electronic music, is a singer-songwriter who translates the nostalgia of night, summer, and cherished memories into evocative songs.
Yasuhiro Soda, using only a guitar and effect pedals, creates sounds that embody Zen philosophy, Eastern thought, and the aesthetics of wabi-sabi, much like the single strokes of a calligrapher's brush.
This is a new form of improvisational music by these two.
