After a successful hit in Japan keyboard artist Yoshiaki Hoshi changed his performance name to Himekami (姫神) in 1980, sometimes in collaboration with his wife Etsuko. Their music has much in common with Kitaro - a mix between traditional Japanese and more modern, popular styles - but less stable in 'quality'. Although they made also over 40 albums, compilations included, many of them never got released outside Japan. Yoshiaki Hoshi died in 2004, though the group has been continued by his son Yoshiki.

This Japanese synthesist creates lush, pop-influenced music that's almost symphonic in conception. A composer of film and television scores in his native country, Himekami is also well known for his multimedia events at historic shrines and temples throughout Japan. His recorded music, however, is inconsistent in quality. Even his "best of" collections released in the United States feature sweet, easy-listening fluff alongside his more masterful musical journeys. ~ Linda Kohanov.
