MUSIC OF NOW | AWAY FROM KNOWN | WORLD MUSIC

***What is Ethnopunk? How did it start? ***

Ethnopunk is a project that started in early 2020 in Japan, Kamakura and is now based in Mie Prefecture, in Odai-cho. It was created by two founding members Kurokawa Hari and MK at the same time as the Coronavirus appeared and began to spread around the world. Hari and MK had just successfully finished EUROPE TOUR with The Jugalbandi Project in Oct/Nov 2019, and had big plans for 2020 and music tours in Central Asia with their new creation Ethnopunk.

In February 2020, while they were on the boat to Hokkaido to collaborate with the Ainu Art Project, the Coronavirus crisis started to really shake the world and all the plans were stopped.

The Ethnopunk Project took a new path and instead of travelling the world, Hari and MK set off on an adventure through Japan, experiencing and learning about the culture, creating new connections and friendships. Spreading and enjoying their music, ideas and concepts with the people they met. They called the project: **Ethnopunk Journey - Following Pilgrimage Steps of Ancient Japan**. 

**But before we start talking about Ethnopunk journey i would like to tell you a little bit more about the concept of Ethnopunk. **

Ethnopunk is the evolution of ethnic music. We focus on learning about traditional art, studying and mastering musical systems, but rather than representing and preserving the tradition, skills and techniques are used to search for new authentic expressions. Ethnopunk is creating ethnic music of the present and not presenting the music of the past.

We intend to present the Ethnopunk cultural movement to music related communities and artists. Hopefully we will inspire their own artistic development and together start creating new exciting projects.

What is the Ethnopunk journey about?

*Ethnopunk journey is about discovery, learning process and improvement. It is about Japan and its beautiful, unique and refined culture. It is about music, old traditional music, as well as new creative music. It is about connecting the old world with the new, and the new world with the old. It is about people, new relations, friendships and creation of unforgettable stories. 

• One of the main purposes of the journey is also to create and record an Ethnopunk Album called “7 Lucky Gods“, “Shichifukujin”. The album is inspired by the stories, places and encounters MK and Hari go through. The journey strongly influences the musical ideas and creative process. The full album will be released when the journey is completed.
