My name is Ari Koinuma (pronounced ko-ee-noo-ma). I’m a recording artist, YouTuber, and blogger.

MUSIC
I release my music as Aristotle’s Hope. It’s progressive rock.
You can find Aristotle’s Hope at Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple, and most other major streaming services.
YOUTUBE
Here is my channel. Over the years I put up songwriting analysis, songwriting tips, guitar gear reviews, etc. I’m in the process of retooling it to align more around the central concept of “therapeutic power of music.”
EVERYWHERE ELSE
Follow me on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Tik Tok.
You can support me on Patreon to receive exclusive content and downloads.
