Disqo Volante Biography
DISQO VOLANTE is a Washington DC-based saxophonist, singer, composer and producer from Seoul, Korea.
His music fuses a background in jazz + a love affair with techno + an astute awareness of post-internet aesthetic. DISQO VOLANTE's unique style has been described as a cross of Prince, Yellow Magic Orchestra and Frank Zappa, all of whom he cites as important personal influences.
His 2018 sophomore release "Yellow Fervor" has been received to excited and intrigued reviews at home and abroad from publications such as LA's Korean Indie and London's The Electricity Club, meriting descriptions such as "unmistakable for anyone else," "a fascinating mix of East meets West over synths and sax," and perhaps DISQO's proudest review, "for the crazy genre blends and uses of seemingly incongruous modes of instrumentation, DISQO VOLANTE deserves an award, or a straitjacket, or something!"
DISQO VOLANTE co-hosts the monthly electronic music showcase "District Drop Inn," (currently postponed due to the COVID-19 situation) operating a vintage Turbosound-Funktion One sound system for the performances. He performs with DC music collectives Hearts Collective and DMV Deep, and has made appearances at DC's Catharsis On The Mall festival, U Street Music Hall, Flash, El Techo, and Velvet Lounge. In collaboration with Johns Hopkins School of Nursing, he premiered his 2020 release "out there," and performs a variety of Twitch segments regularly.
