Seksu Roba

Japanese visual artist and vocalist Lun*na Menoh and Korean producer/thereminist Sukho Lee met through Los Angeles' underground electronic scene. Lun*na's background is in fashion design and performance art, which she incorporates into the band through her unique costumes and humorous performances.

Sukho Lee's background in classical music has helped him to become an accomplished and respected theremin player. Together Lun*na and Sukho put visually stimulating multimedia shows which feature a large, anatomically correct robot named Erector and far-out video projections, in addition to their arousing music.

Seksu Roba has performed with Peaches, Electrocute, Tipsy, Fantastic Plastic Machine and Lydia Lunch, as well as label mates dj me dj you and Anubian Lights. They have toured in Europe, Mexico, and around the U.S.

Like theirpredecessors and inspirations - Giorgio Moroder, Cabaret Voltaire, and Yellow Magic Orchestra - Seksu Roba values a solid, danceable groove to keep things moving while giving the listener something to ponder upon repeated listening. Sukho Lee arranges layers of lines and hooks that evoke the beauty and elegance of works by film composers like Ennio Morricone and Michel LeGrand as well as classic Brazilian songwriters like Marcos Valle and Caetano Veloso. Their breadth of styles and sounds is diverse - space disco, bossa nova, electro-funk, latin rhythms, 60's pop and more-but not without direction or reason. Underlying the seemingly disparate elements is a modern sensual sound.
