We Don't Care About Music Anyway

No city does underground quite like Tokyo does. And nobody in Tokyo does it quite like these guys. From radical turntablism (Otomo Yoshihide) to laptop music innovation (Numb), via classical instrument hijacking (Sakamoto Hiromichi), Tokyo’s avant-garde music scene is internationally known for its daring. We Don’t Care About Music Anyway introduces six of Japan’s most innovative musicians who are blurring the lines between music and noise. Their sounds are played out against the backdrop of a city in motion, from abandoned junkyards and warehouses to busy intersections, in a fast-paced montage that stuns the mind and captures the heart. This film is more than just a film about music – or anti-music – it’s a kind of poetry about a city, a society and the future that takes place in many dimensions. –!f Istanbul
