about me..

Nobu Conifère (aka.Sayoko) is a Japanese composer, singer, musician and artist
as well as the creator behind “Dosage” 

She appears as Rubishinju for the performance projects ;            WolfLand which formed in 2023  with Ravi Shardja and                  dp_Mineral,  duo with hÄk (Berlin),  Vincent Epplay,                                 with film director/mise en scène,  Nieto.

 Classically trained in Japan from the age of 5, she went on to study contemporary dance
in New York and Paris for 10 years.
She has worked on a large number of diversely formatted projects, including dance, films and the curation of a successful monthly cultural event Vanilla in NYC, as well as the opening member of P.Picasso, the legend club in Tokyo.

 Her compositions suggest the symbiosis of two polar opposites and play with their
contrasts creating a texture of subtle harmony and discord  between acoustic instruments, electronic devices, Voice  and any kind of sounds inspirante.     Together they draw the space with abstract lyrics
and novel sounds.

 • Her music is the hypnotic poetry of fragile cinema sleeping on a bed of electro acoustic    noise.                                                                                        – Anthony Bisset / Spectrum

• There is a delicate, limpid and slippery poetry    in Sayoko’s composition, as if her notes were gently laid on a thin,  gauzy layer of ice.                  – Silvia Bombardini /ASVOF

  • Powerful and hypnotic, Dosage has created an unique mix  combining club music with heavy rock riffs, dub studio  techniques, noise and sexy vocals.        Based in New York  City these three young musicians take the classic                        format of guitar, bass and drums to a whole new level with  the aid of sampling triggers and outboard effects.            Influenced by a wide      variety of music,                                             Dosage/Empties, their debut recording is a  multifaceted peek into a trippy    new world of    sound.                                                                                                           – John Zorn / Tzadik Label

In 2026, her mixed-media expression of  collage+dessin has        started exhibiting in  gallery, atelier, collective event.                                                                                                                                                   • The restrained palette and fragmented composition  immediately suggest absence, interruption, and memory,      ideas that feel deeply embedded rather than illustrated.  The torn edges and layered paper fragments create a  physical sense of rupture, as if the image has been  excavated rather than composed, which gives the piece a  raw, honest material presence.        What stands out most is  the balance between precision and vulnerability.                      The negative space is handled beautifully. Instead of feeling  empty, it acts as a breathing field, giving the fragments  room to resonate and inviting the viewer to complete the  image mentally. There’s a quiet intelligence in how little is  shown, and how much is suggested.
 It speaks to fragmentation, time, and perception in a way        that is understated but deeply felt.                                                                                                                         – Evelyn Tsekoura
