Aco (musician)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ACO is a female Japanese singer. Born in Aichi prefecture (愛知県) in 1977, she made her debut in 1995 with the pop single Fuannano (不安なの). She explores different musical styles, with the albums absolute ego and material displaying Electronica influences. absolute ego was produced by ex-Denki Groove keyboardist, Yoshinori Sunahara and the other side of absolute ego album contains remixes by Tricky, DJ Krush and Silent Poets, among others.
In 2003, after a 2 year hiatus, she enlisted the help of the avant-garde audio-visual performance group portable[k]ommunity for her quieter, more delicate album, irony. When ACO is not busy performing and producing music with some of the world's top musical acts, she enjoys laid-back travelling. "I'd like to go to LA - it's really laid-back, and I could just relax there," explains Aco. "I'll go skateboarding!"
