Media Roots Radio- Fukushima Coverage & Break Down of Nuclear Energy by Media Roots

Anthony Bisset is a composer and improviser working in all genres of electronic music who designs his own software and hardware for live use. Since 2007 he has been a part time resident and regular performer in Tokyo and has played shows from Hokkaido to the Southern islands.

He became immersed in the local hip-hop scene that launched dozens of acts worldwide, and in ’96, Shing02’s music made its way back to Japan. He gained a lot of support from his homeland for partnering with Mr. Higo of Mary Joy Recordings. Shing02 has been involved on and off in anti-nuclear activism and research since 2006.
