View NotesGizzfest Adelaide

This is a brilliant Japanese Psychedelic band who feature amplified sitar, very spacey and atmospheric, they were a big hit with the crowd at gizzfest. 
Sound is excellent, I grabbed a position close to the front, nearly centre. 
The mix was exceptional, the only section where its less then great is during the sitar/bass duet, I've boosted the sitar as much as I can without emphasising background noise from the distant bar.  Other then that, congrats to the sound man.

=Band Description=

Kikagaku Moyo started in the summer of 2012 busking on the streets of Tokyo.
Though the band started as a free musiccollective, it quickly evolved into a tight group of multi-instrumentalists.
Kikagaku Moyo call their sound psychedelicic because it encompasses a broad spectrum of influence.
Their music incorporates elements of classical Indian music, Krautrock, Traditional Folk, and 70s Rock.
Most importantly their music is about freedom of the mind and body and building a bridge between the supernatural and the present.
Improvisation is a key element to their sound.
