Focus & Distraction by YAMUNA
"The album 'Focus & Distraction' by YAMUNA takes the listeners on a sonic journey through a landscape of various interwoven styles. The music primarily moves within the realm of hip-hop and naturally pushes the boundaries into jazz, drum and bass, lo-fi, and improvised music.
YAMUNA invites you to question your own perception and explore the intersections between human and machine. The fusion of electronic elements with freely improvised passages creates a unique atmosphere that is both challenging and captivating."

The duo „YAMUNA,“ formed in 2022 by Leo Asal and „halfpastseven“ (aka Joshua Lutz), combines an avant-garde approach with beats from hip-hop and electronic dance music. In doing so, the two musicians act like a sampler and a drum machine while still striving to maintain a human touch.
