Hatis Noit is a Japanese vocalist and composer known for her extraordinary ability to blend ancient vocal traditions with contemporary sound design, and Aura Reworks showcases her music through the creative lens of an impressive roster of collaborators. Released in 2025 on Erased Tapes Records, this collection reimagines her celebrated Aura album with contributions from artists spanning electronic, classical, and experimental worlds, including UK producer Matthew Herbert and avant-garde composer William Basinski.
The reworks range from the shamanic, dancefloor-ready energy of Matthew Herbert's version of "Thor" — which he describes as an "auditory hallucination where more modern techniques merged with ancient-sounding voices" — to William Basinski's deeply contemplative reimagining of "Inori," which introduces delicate piano over a field recording captured near the Fukushima coastline. Preservation's take on "Jomon" pairs Hatis Noit's primal vocals evoking Japan's prehistoric past with cult New York rap duo Armand Hammer, resulting in a hauntingly minimal and unexpected collaboration. The release comes with a 12"×12" stiff card insert featuring full rework credits and a poem.
