Tariki Echo

tariki echo

I have heard about / seen some new movement about modern young monks in Japan

ex.

super fashion concious one who collects huge amount of Comme des Garçons even though he doesn’t have time to wear,

another super fashion concious one who really cares his own monk robes,

the ones as a sutra group who collaborated with other musicians to create edgy music,

the one who opened monks bar to listen / talk to people (seems quite some exist),

Today’s one is a monk duo who mixed dance music & sutra as looking like daft pank dressed as monks but their actual music is cool.

Apparently they are doing this to spread sutra for people to get familiarised with.

GO Japanese monks GO!
