Japanther with Neptune
Japanther are a two-piece bass and drum machine that have been merging fractured punk beats with art-school freakout from their homebase in Brooklyn, NYC. Including collaborative performances like a rock puppet opera with Dan Graham and Tony Oursler at Art Basel and the Whitney Biennial, a live music synchronized swimming piece [!], an art/sound/light installation at the ICA in Philly and most recently, an ambitious "Japanther in 3D" music/video/dance collaboration at PS122. Their latest album "Skuffed Up My Huffy" reimagines classic Ramones-style blitzkrieg with Japnther's tape loop-n-sample playfulness. Boston-based Neptune began as a sculpture project of homemade instruments and has evolved into a three-piece lineup that relies as heavily on home-made electronics as it does its signature scrap metal instruments. Neptune rocks like The Fall, clangs like Neubauten and drones like Faust with improvised and not-so-improvised songs that you can almost dance to. Their latest album "Gong Lake" was release on esteemed label Table of the Elements.
