about
Why Kai is pianist and electronic musician Kai von der Lippe. With an upbringing and education in improv and jazz, and journeyman years in both electronic and acoustic music, he combines two musical worlds in "Deep Fishing", his first release for Jazzland Recordings. He creates carefully composed and evolving pieces where sounds from the jazz and improv scenes are seamlessly blended with danceable rhythms, heavy bass, and incorporated field recordings. Throughout 2020 Why Kai has developed a live performance based around a four-piece band. This has evolved into a multimedia journey where retro films, animations and MIDI-triggered robots are an integral part of the concert experience. They debuted at VictoriaNasjonal Jazzscene in Oslo in October 2020. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
