Legendary Japanese group, Maywa Denki, is set to perform their latest “Voice Mechanics” at Star Hall on April 26th, 2011.

The concert is co-presented by New Media Arts unit, Input/Output and Untitled Entertainment.

In 2006, the group’s performance at Hong Kong City Hall was sold out along with all their merchandise, causing a rave in the local art scene.

Maywa Denki insists that they are a company instead of an art group, developing their own characteristics in the field. Their live performances serve as a product demonstration for their ingenious music instruments, created entirely by the group themselves! Well known internationally, the group has toured sold out rock concerts and exhibitions around the world. Their unique style can be seen in the array of automated, electronic music devices produced over the last century.

Maywa Denki focuses their time and energy on the development and manufacturing of their products such as their recent new series, OTAMATONE, a musical instrument which looks like a large tadpole. Moving your fingers up and down to play music through the mouth of the instrument, this product can be downloaded as an iphone application. During their concert, for those who got this application can join in their iphone orchestra segment which includes a dance routine bringing the audience to a high! This is one show not to be missed!
