The 12th Mixtape brings Hoshina anniversary with his mix Session 2.0, a rework of his most recent album, Odoriko, released on Alien Jams, the independent and superb record label run by Chloe Frieda.

Based in Tokyo, Hoshina anniversary has been producing house and techno for the last five years, releasing on labels such as Turbo Recordings, Octopus Recordings and Boys Noize Records. His style mixes experimental sounds using elements of rock and pop into his productions.

The japanese producer debuted on Alien Jams last month with a 7-track-long album Odoriko. Referencing the archipelago in Miyagi prefecture, the Tokyo-based producer presents a cluster of visually harmonious symbols: Japanese gravestones, foam and tethered objects pieced together with minimal electronics and traditional Japanese instruments.

The grouping and intricate arrangement of these motifs results in a measured dynamic atmosphere throughout the album, balancing creative sound design with effortless flow, all the while conveying a range of emotions that tell a captivating story as the album unfolds across the 7 tracks

For this mixtape he didn't want to make a normal mix. Being a producer he felt he wanted to use his own tracks or remake them. So he ended up remaking all the tracks of the Odoriko album with the idea being that if you listen to the album first and then listen to this mixtape, it will be experienced and enjoyed in a new way.
