KAYAKA (photo: Radio)

KAYAKA is an experimental / noise / electronica composer and performer, born in Tokyo and based in London and Berlin. She plays electronic and acoustic instruments – including harp, bass clarinet, drums, bass guitar and gadgets – and has a unique, autodidactic style of composing and recording. Her music is sometimes called ‘sonic surrealism’ and is often mixed with ‘living-life-noise’. KAYAKA collaborates with numerous artists from all around the world and her live sets are mostly improvised, producing different results on each unique performative occasion. She is self educated in London, apart from piano lessons and brass band practices when she was a child in Tokyo. She is a curator of Pighole Records.
