2013 Concerts
Iokoi
IOKOI, a Swiss/Italian artist moves around playing for theatre, dance, silent films, installations, for herself and ordinary people. After a first tour in China in 2013 she returns there in spring 2013 to play the first Art Basel in Hong Kong and beyond. In August he also creates an interactive sound installation with concert for the summer festival STADTSOMMER at the botanical garden in Zurich. He starts 2014 by composing music for the experimental contemporary dance project TSIB-The Space In Between in collaboration with choreographers Alida Dors and Jochen Heckmann.
The first single, “Growing Young”, later became the soundtrack for a video by renowned designer Yohji Yamamoto. IOKOI continues its dialogue with the world of fashion, which has existed for a long time thanks to its ongoing collaboration with the emerging brand MIRYAKI.
Her music could perhaps be defined as somewhere between Ambient, Drones and Pop, but it doesn’t matter: she floats in space disguising herself as her surroundings. Letting go is everything.
