Tujiko Noriko’s music is a stutter of eccentric fractals, a kaleidoscope of delicate and demanding surprises. There are many different textural, cultural, and personal ideas at play on Hard ni sasete ("Make Me Hard"). Noriko is definitely a considerable figure of avant-garde technique, but she doesn't make us suffer for it. She lets us into her sandbox and shows us all her toys. Her interjections of found melodies, concrete noise, affecting sense of disparate elements matched together, and Noriko's extremely emotive voice, are all placed in the expansive background of repetition. Noriko's song style depicts fictions and stories all in Japanese and is so charmingly "100 per cent nerdy glitch-boy free”. Noriko's exercises in distressed digitalia sound strictly hand-crafted and full of color, are far-reaching and complex, toggling through thousands of pieces of aural detritus, throbbing for the next step.
