Sounds Like
Dian Bang- Nightmare. An visual done by Dasein students.
Dian Bang known as the Electro-laptop band from Malaysia, consist of two individuals with opposing music style, a highly diversified female vocalist and a Percussionist, creating not just happy simple pop tune but even heavy electro vibes.
Using laptops with additional of live instruments had enhance the human's tactual sensation into their live performing. Technology may have make things easier but it does not make our sounds/musics less vibrant.
Yet in the future we're looking forward to discover more individual sound...
