Breaking away from the guitar based band format, and being influenced by Drum 'n' Bass, Alt and Electronica, Hayashi is a band playing music which would usually be performed using computers or sequencers playing drum loops. Hayashi play it live. It is a melodious break-beat experience with great big bass complemented by darkly beautiful vocals.
The band play a high energy live set with sampled sounds complementing the music to create the same sound as the recorded material.
Hayashi will be releasing their new album 'b a d m a c h I n e' in August '07
The band are based in Leeds, with their recording facilities, Moonrock Studios, situated in Leeds LS6
