Mouse on the Keys

Mouse on the Keys is a trio instrument band. Based in
Tokyo, the group consists of its former members, "Nine
Days Wonder" (a leading band on the Japanese post-rock
scene) Akira Kawasaki (drum, keyboards) and Atsushi
Kiyota (piano, keyboards), along with Daisuke Niitome
(piano, keyboards), who has played drums and composed
music for funk/hiphop bands.
The unique sound of the band's drums, two pianos,
and two keyboards combines the sense of urgency from rock,
hard core and heavy metal with tastes of
early/contemporary classical, jazz and various dance
music.
At their concerts, the band projects a variety of
images chosen to match their sound
―views of Tokyo, geometric symbols, 3D objects, and
abstractions. Residents of Tokyo, the members of Mouse on
the Keys represent the haunting restlessness of their home
city at their live appearances. They would transform even
a venue in Germany or France into a kind of virtual Tokyo.
