It’s the first album of 2025 and the debut work of Japanese artist Atsuto Yamamoto, known for exploring the boundaries of noise and harsh noise.

“1 Plus 0 Is More or Less Than 10” is an album built on layers of saturated noise, abrasive frequencies, and unsettling moments of silence. Each track seems to exist on the threshold between everything and nothing, between “1” and “0,” evoking the idea that even extremes can overlap, distort, or lose definition.

Yamamoto employs a combination of analog synthesizers, manipulated recordings, and custom-built equipment to create sonic textures that feel tangible, almost as if the sound could be physically felt on the skin.

Prepare yourself for a unique experience. “1 Plus 0 Is More or Less Than 10” is not an album to be merely heard – it is an album to be confronted.
