Italian synth group started in the early 1980s, with tracks conducted and arranged by Anfrando Maiola and produced by Stefano Cundari.
In 1989, ZYX Music bought the rights to the Memory Records catalogue, allegedly including the rights to Koto's music and name. They asked the Dutch producer Michiel van der Kuy to re-record and remix some of Koto's old tracks (Anfrando Maiola eventually won back the rights to the Koto name).
Michiel van der Kuy productions are listed under Koto (2).
