Rawakari

Original rudebwoi Jean_Francois was born and bred by the banks of the Vesdre, in a small town with an unpronounceable name. Rumour has it the man was kidnapped at a very young age by orange throwers and that he keeps frozen pots containing bizarre fluids in his fridge. Jean_Francois weaves his music into subtle electronic convulsions carrying fragments of jazz, dub and tribal music as passengers. He likes his music to be "challenging", producing messed up yet fragile melodies and fractured, jerking beats accompanied by bass. His music ranges from experimental trip hop to unstructured jungle, with manipulated electro concrete sounds and melodies. In 2001, Jean_Francois released the Ikebana EP on the Elf Cut imprint. He's also supplied sounds for dance & film.
