WRASS233

On the one side transporting waves of sound, on the other, the ‘quijada’, the skeleton of the lower jaw of a donkey which the African slaves of Peru reinvented as a percussion instrument. Musically, it’s about reinterpreting a rural tradition with the tools of modern technology: fusing ‘art brut’ and digital loops to jump from the past straight into the future.
The two Radiokijada conceptualists, Rodolfo Muñoz und Christoph H.Müller, met in Paris in the early nineties. The first is Peruvian, composer and percussionist trained in Lima and in the Conservatory of Havannah. The second is Swiss, co-composer and “man-machine” of Gotan Project. An idea reunited them in Paris at the beginning of the new millennium: to bring Afro-Peruvian music to the world’s attention and interpret it in a new way.
