Japanese native Maiko Okimoto, also known as Lemna, is an electronic music composer based in Tochigi, Japan. Maiko began her musical journey taking up classical piano at age 4, and composing music at age 14. After being in some bands as a vocalist playing a variety of instruments, including guitar, bass, saxophone, and keyboards, she gradually began to take an interest in acoustics. After she studied sound engineering at the academy, she began to experiment with production even more deeply while performing as an MC/singer for D&B DJ’s in Tokyo since 2006. Stylistically starting as D&B hybrids, her music grew into a totally robust, unique sound, equal parts ambient and techno with a rhythmically experimental approach defining the bulk of her work. Ever since she debuted her first live performance as Lemna at Berlin Atonal in 2017, she has always been giving audiences “one-off” performances composed of only newly-written music every time so as to value the ephemeral freshness, which has honed her approach to music making. Maiko tells a story with music, seeking to find out the beautiful ratio to frame the moment of the constantly changing dynamic world on a time axis, while hovering between regularity and irregularity, such as order and chaos, artifact and nature, intellect and emotion, or conscious and subconscious. She now works on a broad range of projects, including music production for exhibition/installation, collaborative work with performing arts, visual arts, or 2D/3D arts, with her unique music incorporating organic soundscapes, and expresses her world not only by music but also by artwork and video production herself.

for Composer in RED HOOD: RONIN (Live Action Film)
Suggested by nihilus
A samurai-ronin version of Red Hood goes up against Deathstroke and Katana in a brutal action packed 1v2 clash of blades with peak fight choreography inspired by samurai martial arts films like Rurouni Kenshin ⚔️ 🔥 When a brutal shift in Gotham’s underworld puts Red Hood—now a ruthless ronin crime-boss—at the center of it, two elite assassins, Deathstroke and Katana, form a quiet, unnerving alliance to bring him down. But Red Hood is no underdog; he matches their hyperviolent martial-arts precision and ronin-level swordplay strike for strike, and rumors whisper that he may have been the one who ended the Dark Knight himself, with the rest of the Bat-Family mysteriously vanished. As Deathstroke and Katana carve through gangs with ghostlike coordination, all three fighting with peak samurai-ronin technique, and Red Hood counters with savage violence of his own, the city braces for a three-way collision between killers so deadly that no one knows who’s hunting whom anymore.
