A film by: Cédric Dupire and Gaspard Kuentz

Music Documentary/ 80 Minutes – HDV – Japanese/France 2010

The amplified sound of a controlled heartbeat, the screech of an electric cello played with ferocity, turntablism at its most extreme: these are the sounds of Tokyo’s world renowned avant-garde music scene. We Don’t Care About Music Anyway foregrounds six of Japan’s most innovative musicians who are working on the fringes of culture, blurring the lines between music and noise. Their sounds are played out against the backdrop of a diverse cityscape, from desolate junkyards and monolithic warehouse spaces to overpopulated intersections, in a frenetic, choreographed montage that dizzies the mind and cranks up the heart. Rebelling against ancient traditions, these revolutionary artists demonstrate the evolutionary nature of culture, proving that art is indeed influenced by the modernity of a techno-world.”
