Ei Wada shared this jam on the vintage electric fan in the local bathhouse on a winter morning.
It’s part of Wada’s ELECTRONICOS FANTASTICOS! project, in which he reincarnates old electrical appliances as new electromagnetic instruments, to invent new ways to play music.
Share your thoughts on the ‘Electric Fan Harp’ in the comments!
I once had only two fans show up at my concert
Fantastic!
Shocking.
OK… I guess it’s up to me to say it…
FAN HALEN!!
A Mighty Wind
Fantastic!
What is it that hit the fan?
And what did you do during the covid lockdowns?
Fucking genius
“Shreds” indeed. Clever use of FX. Looks like he still has all 10, so good on him!
I like the dude in the laundromat in the background.
All of their instruments are really interesting, check out their videos on Youtube!
Right…..as fun and brilliantly executed as this was, a site called Synthtopia would rather cover this than the SynthFest occurring in France with a slew of hardware synthesisers being announced. Except one wouldn’t know coming here.
And I will admit that I have watched this several times now.
I am a FAN, love it and nice effects!
Absolutely made my visit to synthtopia today worthwhile!
Boyd Rice did it first, and better.
I’d rather watch this guy than a bigot.
You do know noise and industrial music uses fascism, racism, homophobia, sexism, etc ironically right? Boyd is just a troll.
Industrial music use extreme elements for shocking people but they want to say just the other thing . Boyd Rice use to much nazi symbolics yes i agree with you this is a very poor way to provocate same with Death in June and a few Electronic Body Music bands . The border good or bad is very very small.
Boyd Rice , S.P.K , Throbbing Gristle , Zev , Zoviet France , Einsturzende Neubauten and many many other Industrialists did this before yes .
I appreciate the effort but it sounded unpleasant and non-musical when it seems it wasn’t intended to be
Instant fan of the fan. Expresses energy.
I’m speechless. This guy is a genius!
I think this performance should be streamed on Onlyfans
Behringer is coming out with a fan clone. As soon as they get the chips.
Why use ‘dude’ in the headline when you already know it’s the artist/musician Ei Wada? Are Asian names less deserving of headlines?

I was sad that I had no fans until I met a man who had no air.
