Join us for a special seminar and a conversation between ASA-CHANG & Junray with Eugene Lew and Joshua Minsoo Kim to explore deeper into the sound practice of this esteemed Japanese band on their first US tour!
ASA-CHANG & Junray explores the transference of human to machine sounds using a processing device, Junray Tronics, weaving through rhythmic and tonal references of Jakarta, India and Japan. Led by self-taught tabla-bongo player, Asa-Chang (percussion), the band will perform as a trio including Yoshihiro Goseki (saxophone, flute), Sena Oshima (violin), and the “Junray Tronics” soundsystem.
