Asa-Chang & Junray

Asa-Chang's music is wildly exotic, playful and lovingly crafted by human hands, and should be approached with an open mind. We doubt you've ever heard anything quite like this before... A heady brew of Eastern percussion, babelogues of spoken word, horns, toys, flute, mandolin and an analogue synthesiser drum, which together resonates like a struck bell, oscillates wildly between breathtaking futurism and timeless spirituality, and bucks like a wild horse. Asa-Chang & Junray is about the friction between self-taught tabla-bongo guru Asa-Chang and traditionally instructed tabla master U-Zhaan. Programmer Hidehiko Urayama never appears onstage, but his presence is felt through the sound system machine, Junreitronics.
