JÜ, Kenta Hayashi
By now, you've probably noticed that Jazzelünk has its returning guests. It’s also not unusual for these guests to cross paths, intertwine, and create something entirely new together. This time, we invite you to a Japanese–Hungarian evening, and trust us: it’s going to hit hard. As powerful as freshly grated horseradish... or wasabi.
Schedule
Kenta Hayashi (JP)
Kenta has already shown us many times what he is capable of—whether performing solo or backed by a full band. Armed with guitar, ancient Japanese instruments, and drums, he shapes and manipulates vibrations like a true loop ninja, creating soothing, almost healing waves of sound.
In his latest project, however, he has enlisted the help of tachyons.
What are tachyons? Hypothetical particles that travel faster than light, existing beyond the familiar chain of cause and effect while carrying every possible potential within them. Like a blank page, they hold the possibility for anything to emerge.
JÜ
Jü is flow. Jü is the path once it has been found.
Of course, this flow does not always lead in the easiest direction. It carries us through abstract jazz, psychedelic rock, and all kinds of unexpected musical landscapes. A Jü concert is impossible to predict—but then again, who ever said that the path to the ultimate answer would be an easy one?
One thing is certain: whenever Jü takes over the deck of Pontoon, something intangible, unique, and truly magical comes into being.
