Digital Cutup Lounge [DCL] are one of the leading electronic music groups to emerge from the exciting turn-of-the-century dance music scene in Hong Kong. Their music combines cutting-edge electronic beats and sounds with contemporary jazz improvisation, using digital music technologies to blend elements of old and new musics from around the world.
DCL cut and cut to the ruptures and the strokes, using computers to mix dance tracks, ambient noise, jazz solos, Internet radio broadcasts and music from all over the globe, following a massive multicultural collision course with our hyperaccelerated future.
DCL have released two CDs, Network Effects [Gogo Records, Mar 2002] and Cutup Mixdown [Gogo Records, Mar 2001], and their tracks have been featured on international CD compilations such as Eastern Sunrise [Universal Music Group, 2001] and Groove [Petrol Records, 2001]. They have also applied their uniquely warped sensibilities to remixes for such well-known artists as Astrud Gilberto, Barry White, Nelly Furtado, Enrique Iglesias, and Bollywood singer Asha Bhonsle.
Network Effects, their most recent CD release, is a hour-long continuous mix of original music from DCL and collaborators around the world including musicians and producers from Hong Kong, Beijing, Tokyo, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Sydney.
In addition to their core lineup of two computers, bass and saxophone, DCL are often joined by additional instrumentalists as well, often including percussion, guitar, tabla, and erhu [Chinese violin]. They have performed at clubs and festivals throughout Asia and internationally, including venues in Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo, London, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.
