kioku, polly moller
and dajis
based in new york city, the musical group kioku presents traditional asian folk music within a new context of collaborative experimentation and improvisation. the trio consists of wynn yamami (east and southeast asian percussion, including japanese taiko, korean gongs, and filipino kulintang), christopher ariza (live laptop electronics), and ali sakkal (saxophones, percussion). while committed to the preservation of musical traditions, kioku (japanese for "memory") acknowledges the plasticity of tradition and freely adopts musical techniques found within improv-based and new music circles.

 

 

polly moller plays the flute and bass flute, improvises, composes, and creates performance art. since 1995, she's recorded four albums of original work and performed in diverse venues all over the san francisco bay area and beyond.

dajis dj with a selection of ambient and experimental music.
