I&I Djangdan
The music scene in Seoul is notoriously lacking, but last night I went to a stellar performance by I&I Djangdan at Club Cargo, a cozy underground lounge in Hongdae. Korean soused-siren-singing with slick melodica, bass and drummed out dj-ing make for a surprisingly groovy combination that had the crowd swaying and bopping all night. I believe a few of the members are of the Korea reggae group Windy City, who will be performing at the Pentaport Rock Festival (July 25-27) with Ozomatli. Love love love the melodica man…I can still hear the haunting melodies echoing through my body.
aaaaaaand I can’t seem to get the youtube video to embed properly, so here are a few links–one click and you’re in a whole new world of groovetastica, so go go go!
