Ei Wada TV Jam
Sick bar code and TV licks from @crab_feet
Wow, am I late to this party. Ei Wada has been making music since at least 1998, much of it on TV tubes and magnetic tape. And still posting mind-blowing bar code freeform on Twitter at @crab_feet in the now. (Like this one - wait till you see what the shirts are for…)
The handle comes from an early piece called ‘Crab Feet Man’. Some of my fave vids I’ve run across:
- Factory Fan Bass. I’m amazed how well the optics of the upright bass have been translated here.
- Ei Wada + Nicos Orchest-lab. Holy shit - TV four-piece and six-piece bands! I love the mallets on a TV. Seriously makes me love life.
- Tape Tapping. To do this without breaking the tape and compensating for the slack.
I love Ei Wada’s infectious and playful way. Please post any other sweet vids you find - searching ‘electronicos fantasticos’ and ‘open reel ensemble’ can reveal others.
