about
CRUEL BUDDHIST
Cruel Buddhist is a Shanghai based musician and producer of Lofi, R&B, Funk, and Vaporwave music. He incorporates looping and improvisation into his live sets using a sampler, synthesizer, guitar, and vocoder. Cruel Buddhist showcases organic human performance in the context of digital production based music by employing lessons from zen wabisabi aesthetic. His work “Attention Deficit Daydreams Vol.1” was recognized for this effort and awarded display at Shanghai’s Hima Art Gallery in 2017. In the last year, his efforts have brought him inclusion in major lofiplaylists, collaborations with brands like Beats, Carhart, Chanel, and a major live event performance with hit TV show “Rap of China”.

KODAMA
Born and bred in Belgium, at the age of fifteen Kodama moved to global music capital London where he picked up his love for psytrance at the now legendary Drome. Now already over a decade in China, he spent most of that time as half of Magic Garden planting the seeds of the global psychedelic trance scene, throwing fully decorated parties at iconic venues (some now long come and gone) such as club dkd, G+, MAO, Park 97, Madam Zung, Rojam, SOS, Babyface, Shelter, Dada, Logo, Cinderella etc. Some of these events, such as the two year Full Moon residency at dkd, the G+ Halloween Monster Bash attended by 2800 people and the Nine Year Anniversary at 1933 – Asia’s largest (now defunct) art deco abattoir - have gone down in Shanghai nightlife folklore. Further afield Kodama has had the pleasure of playing ZOOM Bar on Koh Phangan Beach, Thailand. Bringing over internationally renowned psy-trance artists such as Shane Gobi, Vishnudata, Life Extension, he has also shared the decks with Paul Taylor, Martian Arts and Braincell.
