Keiji Haino
Institute of Contemporary Arts, SW1Y 5AH , [Venue Details]Keiji Haino will present an exclusive performance on polygonola, a metal-flat polygonal instrument, based on the 2nd-dimensional vibration theory, built by Naoki Sakurai.
Presented by Upset the Rhythm.
KEIJI HAINO was born in Chiba, Japan on May 3, 1952. Inspired by Antonin Artaud, he aimed for the theater, but an encounter with The Doors stimulated him into music, where he has examined and absorbed a wide range of expressions from the early blues, especially Blind Lemon Jefferson, or European medieval music to popular songs across the world.
In 1970, he joined a group Lost Aaraaf named after Edgar Allan Poe’s poem as a vocalist. Meanwhile, he started to work on home recordings and learned the guitar and percussion autodidactically.
In 1978, Haino formed a rock band Fushitsusha, and since 1988, after a recuperation period from 1983 to 1987, he has been internationally active in various forms including solo, groups such as Fushitsusha, Nijiumu, Aihiyo, Vajra, Sanhedrin, Seijaku, Nazoranai or The Hardy Rocks and DJ as “experimental mixture,” as well as in collaboration with artists from different backgrounds, drawing the performance of the guitar, percussion, hurdy gurdy, string instruments, wind instruments, local instruments from across the world and DJ gears to the extreme through idiosyncratic techniques.
