I didn't knew, who Dino was...until I went to Taiwan in 2018 and saw him play live.

What an incredible musician - and as said here, quite important in its role of forming taiwanese noise music.

The new White Fungus has an article about Taiwanese noise pioneer Dino (Liao Ming-Ho) who sadly passed away in 2022. Dino was part of the explosion of noise music in 90s Taiwan following the lifting of martial law, creating electronic music using feedback from simple analog equipment.

An enlightening review of the Yao Jui-chung retrospective held in 2020 from White Fungus.

Yao is a major influence of my own work documenting the ruinous past in #Taiwan, but he's a real artist, whereas I'm more a geographer. Very much someone to keep an eye on. www.whitefungus.com/yao-jui-chun...
