[ Biography ]

-- PP Shivaknen maybe an unfamiliar name to most, but the Drummer & Percussionist few and far between something special style of free improvisation music. Playing polyrhythm, complex rhythm, tuplet, Meditative, Japonisme Experimental, Taiko, Tribal, Contemporary instrumental, World fusion music with Guitarist @ heart but Percussion only. You might want to say in other words Japan TraditionalGagaku, Noh, Kabuki... but Modern Style.
  Started to play music as a Guitarist, Funk, Fusion, Rock, even a Blues, in the first place. BUT, One day, Suddenly, on the spur of the moment, Shivaknen had been learner, apprenticed to the Master Katsuhiko Kawasehe had been passed. and then keen on, hung up on playing Drums and percussion. Thus, DRUMMER now. Keep on going to learn more and more about the subject emphasis to the polyrhythm and/or tuplet.
  Mentions about Live, regularly invite only in secret club But I'm not mean play hard to get. Don't get me wrong, please., ONE-MAN Drum / Taikoso called Uchimono, Narimono or Hayashi instruments in Japan Traditional Art words / percussion only one-man performance and then create the weird percussive interval music but systematically constructed sound world. Some rhythm-savvy guys could imaging, understanding, enjoy or LOL (i.e. Drummermost of them who learn drumming seriously knows how hard to play and screaming YOU! CRAZYYYY!! or somethin'...) what kind of polyrhythm, tuplet and/or polymeter is going but drive others confuse concrete abstraction or somethin'... Most of the time, the repute within the audiences who for the first time LIVE SHOW are pros and cons.
Capture the essence and spirit of the Japanese traditional Noh, Kabuki and/or Gagaku also wish to be more 'fine art'.
  This is some kind of wabisabi, Japonisme, Weird, Experimental sound world.

OR...,   "sounds like" is If you would force me to paraphrase, dare say in other words like this: think CLONE Trilok Gurtu transplanted the David Torn's brain and then ON Japonisme Traditional Subayashi style and/or tribal instrument percussion drum set meets Tony Oxley, Max Roach or Terry Bozzio in Zen temple.
