A Canadian ensemble with a striking international take on pop, Teke::Teke have fashioned a dynamic fusion of East and West in their music. They initially came together through a shared fascination with Japanese eleki music, guitar-based rock fashioned after the Ventures. But with time, Teke::Teke began incorporating a rich variety of different elements into their songs, with Japanese traditional music, movie music, psychedelic pop, and indie rock all audible in their dynamic and dramatic performances. Teke::Teke made an accomplished debut with 2018's Jikaku, which captured a sense of vivid storytelling regardless of your understanding of the Japanese language, and they expanded on their vision with 2021's Shirushi, which was more song-oriented but no less ambitious in its melodies and arrangements. The band added even more energy and rhythmic textures on their second LP, 2023's Hagata.
