I enjoyed compiling and posting inexpensive cultural events in Vancouver. But now I’ve decided that I wanted to blog more expansively, about culture, music, food, travel, and whatever strikes my fancy, regardless of location. My focus will still be on Vancouver, and I have a special affection for culture on a shoestring, but I’ll be blogging about a lot more too.
See you at Beyond YVR!

Presented by Powell Street Festival
Soichi Terada, the electro producer of Omodaka combines traditional minyo (folk music) with contemporary electronic sounds performed in tandem to projected videos. The mask-wearing chip-tune enthusiast plucks live melodies from modified video game hand-helds to create live performances of bleeps and blips with traditional Japanese singing.
Omodaka will also perform at the Firehall Theatre over the festival weekend (date/time TBA).
