“BOWIE AND THE RAMONE’S HYBRID CHILD HAVING A TANTRUM IN THE 23RDCENTURY”
Audience Member
An anti-pop PoP genre - an amalgam of electronic computer chaos and post-rock maximalism stitched together by a mosaic sonic cacophony of samples and song. Jap-punk Joy.
Sumo Dada is a crack on a glass table, a noise bomb of cross-cultural collaboration in an unpredictable form. Hailing from Japan and Australia, Sumo Dada’s two core musicians present a broad skill-set and interdisciplinary music genres such as maximalism, spectralism, splash of pop-punk, and a whole lot of 'I need a holiday', wrapped ever-so-loosely in an anti-establishment pop music bubble.
WHO
Sumo Dada melts together interdisciplinary music genres
spectralism, maximalism, punk-rock nonsense
King Akimbo (Japan – guitar, bass, noise + computer samples + programming, vocals) lays down those beats with reckless abandon, one might think there’s actual method in the madness but no. He plays every instrument under the sun which makes it hard from him to choose which to play so he will switch depending on his mood. Working full-time with his uncle, renowned ‘godfather of rock photography’ Masayoshi Sukita, Akimbo makes no plans to be on the back end of the lens. He prefers making his lips glow in the dark a radioactive neon orange colour.
Luisa LaChouf (Australia – electric violin, electric taisho koto, vocals), had studied music in The Netherlands where she also established a post-rock band and toured around the Benelux, warbling and playing violin. These days the warble is more garbled and occasionally a bit baby bird squeaky. She has also studied wine, film and likes to combine all into a large melting pot and see what strange concoction is brewed. There’s no real structure there.
Sumo Dada loves collaborations, observations and felicitations.
