WaqWaq Kingdom is a Japanese tribal bass duo, consisting of singer/songwriter Kiki Hitomi (also in King Midas Sound) & Shigeru Ishihara (also bassist for Seefeel). Both are originally from Japan,but met while they lived in the U.K. for over a decade. They are now based in Leipzig / Berlin.
Their genre-bending sound is like a psychedelic stew melding Japanese traditional style Minyo with Jamaican dancehall & spicing it all with Dub, techno, tribal polyrhythms, & Super Nintendo soundtracks. The lyrics & visuals draw deeply upon ancient Shinto mythology & Japanese "Matsuri" festivals. WaqWaq Kingdom's hypnotic shamanic live performances are an intense time warp experience that connect their animistic roots with the latest in urban night life.
