Alva Noto and Ryuichi Sakamoto are an electronic collaboration that began in the late 1990s when they met during Sakamoto's first tour of Japan. Noto was commissioned to remix Sakamoto's material for the Japanese magazine Code Unfinished. Their two-year music exchange culminated in a release, and they toured extensively in 2005. In 2007, the duo collaborated with another artist to create an audio-visual performance for the 400th anniversary of the city of Mannheim, which was released as a composition in 2008. They continued to record several albums together until Sakamoto was diagnosed with cancer.
