Korea Gig Guide

Friend of Pipi

Okay, this is just weird. It is a music video for the new group EE, which features Lee Yoon-jung, the former singer of Pipi Band many years ago.

I think there is only a CD single out at the moment, but it is good to see Lee back in the music scene. Her work with Pipi Band (Ppippi? Bibi? whatever) is probably the biggest single reason I stuck around Korea long enough to get to know the place and appreciate it.

Some other notes…

As long as I am talking about electronica, I should point out DJ Soulscape (but better info here). He apparently has an album out that is all remixed Korean classic rock, but I have not been able to track it down yet. You can here one track from that album on his Myspace page.

I have heard Soulscape is supposed to be playing at this year’s CMJ music festival in New York City, but there is nothing about that on the CMJ’s website yet.

Not sure what I make of this yet.
