Koji Asano, Japanese composer and sound-artist performing slow groaning burbling tones, moaning echoes and drones.

Sci-fi. After the club. Underground. Counter-narrative. Narrated movement. Cultural resistance. Wu Tsang and boychild’s collaborative performance series, will continue its evolution at Episode 9 with the addition of TOTAL FREEDOM.
