Upcoming shows
Hong Kong Dong is a quizzical synth-electronic band from Ghent formed by three distinct minds. Together they evoke a very peculiar and twisted sound. One of the gang members is Bolis Pupul, who has released two EP’s on Soulwax’ new DeeWee label. He is the band’s synth guru and singer with a unique and delicate voice that flows like a horny tai chi master. Sister Sarah Yu is the furious female singer and illustrator artist who brings with her the playful vibe of a child tossing around a Play-Doh microphone. The man behind the tweaked beats and guitars is Geoffrey Burton, the maestro guitar player who prefers to make his guitar sound like a synth or a cracking bird. Hong Kong Dong creates an intriguing world that is weird and attractive at the same time. You will get lost on their dance-symphonic path but it will always lead you back to the hiccup beating heart of the Dong.
Hong Kong Dong is back with a new track, called ‘Touching Underwear’: A soft spoken song arranged by compelling synths and snappy rhythms. Hong Kong Dong likes to tease. You know somethings coming, but you never know what.
Touching Underwear is the first song of the full album ‘ KALA KALA ‘ – ready for release on october 6th. A sunny warm album recorded in a stream of consciousness on location in Denia Spain.
No preparations were made, no rules, no holding back.
It’s sweet, it’s sour, it’s trashy, it’s nightmarish and it’s fun.
