the tenorions: pr-stunt turned sore and stale?

Pierre’s just sent me the link (Hungarian) to Japanese threesome The Tenorions that sounds and feels pretty much like a very half-assed PR-stunt for the “new” Yamaha e-instrument called Tenori-On, which is basically a hand-held tracker.

My readers are probably aware of my fondness for Asian girls with a tech flavour, but really - the girls (named Nynn, Cici and Fiona) are not stage-ready, the music has no common axis with the fundamentals of live electronic improvisation and the whole performance is just not credible. Or I’m just seething with pure envy because I cannot own a Tenori-On (yes, girls, Fruity Loops is so much better) and the girls are just pure hot den material (I’m sorry, not. Hope they won’t stab me anywhere near their gigs, tho’.) The whole meme vaguely reminds me of T.A.T.U. and it just doesn’t kick. Have fun digging after them, I warned you. (via midi.blog)

    Meghallgattam. Szerintem ahhoz túl gépies zene, hogy a 3 csajra szükség legyen hozzá. Szerintem ez 1 emberes project,csakhát mint tudjuk, női testekkel mindent el lehet adni. Kicsit szomorú vagyok, amikor ilyen élettelen zenét próbálnak élővé tenni. Fából vaskarika tipikus esete. 101% hogy a 3 csajszi nélkül, ez csak egy szimpla 12 egy tucat szintű előadás lenne.

The television skies of Chiba City branded his brains in 1992. He hasn't recovered fully since. Re-wired his brain with a few years of FastTracker, hosted radio shows on the first .hu netradio for 4 years, went on to broadcast radio for another two. Worked on the absurd radio series Kónuszék, that actually led him to become a script writer for the multiple-award winning animation Nyócker.

Started LD50 in 2001, an alternative community portal for some, a media experiment for him. DJ'd and organized for 6 years @ Budapest: the first weekly gothic/industrial clubnights, the VK/jrock Nippon Shoxx and the biggest local industrial/cyber party series called Kollektíva, among many. Key figure behind the cyberpunk PDF magazine THE DOSE and he's making a comeback with it.

He's currently an IT/science journalist, with a love for weird stuff, Asian cuisine, pop culture, energy drinks, coffee and chili, eyecandy, Japan and a life-long devotion to all things cyberpunk & slipstream.
