WaqWaq Kingdom is the visionary project of Japanese musicians Shigeru Ishihara (DJ Scotch Egg) and Kiki Hitomi (ex-King Midas Sound), blending traditional Japanese minyō folk with experimental bass, dancehall, and footwork influences. Based between Japan and Europe, the duo crafts a distinctive sound that fuses folklore, polyrhythmic beats, and deep bass energy into a psychedelic, ritualistic experience. Known for their albums *Shinsekai* and *Essaka Hoisa*, WaqWaq Kingdom continues to captivate global audiences with their genre-defying sonic world and powerful live performances.
