Tough and Tender

2013 release from this solo project by Fumi Miyoshi, a Japanese female artist hailing from Tokyo, Japan. She has already self-published many albums and Tough And Tender is her official debut album comprised of all of her past favorite tracks. Once you get to know her personally, we all are surprised of the unbalance of her cute little looks and the massive hard sound that she makes. She is also aware of her dual nature and has entitled the album Tough And Tender. While the tenderness lies within her spirits, the tough part is the overall sound that she produces, and it's not so difficult to find links with artists like Aphex Twin and Nine Inch Nails which she speaks as her big influences in her younger days, but her way of output is more minimal without a glimpse of extra poppiness almost like hard minimal techno with simply beautiful melodies which may come from her piano background. She has recently done a remix for Cornelius's manipulator's new project Mishmash. Don't take your eyes off of her!
