Solmania (?????) is the Osaka-based noise music project of Masahiko 'Masaki' Ohno (sometimes written as "Ono") (?? ??), who runs the Works Fatagaga noise record label. Formed in 1984, Solmania is one of the earliest noise projects out of Japan. Ohno is known for making his own electric guitars out of spare parts and using them in his live performances and recordings; the guitars usually take an extremely bizarre form, utilizing unconventional body shapes, extra necks, strings and pickups in unusual places, and various extraneous gadgets such as microphones. It is also Ohno who has done the artwork on most Masonna albums.
