live @ Rigolo Nouveau Cirque // Aftershowparty, St. Gallen (CH)

22nd of November 2014

Buyakano will be the band for the Aftershowparty of Rigolo Swiss Nouveau Cirque for their show "Wings in my Heart". They had supported our crowdfunding campain earlier this year, now we return the favor!

We will bring our Percussion section together with the vocalists. Sadly, the location can not handle the entire band... But, as we all know, the minimized formation packs quite a punch! Like back in the old days!

Hello Goodbye

21st of August 2013

As time goes on, with such a huge line-up, it sadly is inevitable that some of our members have a change in their personal biographies, and change location along with it. But worry not, change is part of life, or as Rafiki (you know, the monkey-shaman-wise-guy) from Lion King puts it: Change is good!

Our blazing horn-section is about to be re-vamped, as we say goodbye to our terrific bass-trombone fundament Reinaldo "Koko" Donoso Pizarro, who moves back to Chile in fall, as well as our "man-in-the-middle" Roberto "Moña" Lorenzo Elekes who moves to Madrid.

It has been our greatest pleasure to have been playing with you guys, we all have grown because of it ("Louder! Faster! Nastier!") and have really become a family-away-from-home over the course of the last years.

Thanks so much for all of your effort, energy, love, blood and sweat! We really have had a blast!

Or, in the words of Roberto "That was some really nasty shit, bro!"

Summer was awesome!

18th of August 2013

Buyakano has had some terrific concerts this summer, most notably our shows on SommerMusikFest, Loshausen WorldMusicFestival and a fantastic collaboration with Rüdiger Oppermann's KlangWelten in Frankfurt.

Another highlight being the presentation of the Buyakano Workshop that we gave, the performance was truly bombastic: 50 Drummers, 10 Horns, together with our usual bass-guitar-insane-rap combo was almost like a force of nature! Blasting some of our songs with more than 60 people was simply to good to be true...

Stay tuned for more media from the before-mentioned shows, as far as we know, all of it has been filmed ;-) It was great to be spending so much time together, finally in a warm, summer-sunny surrounding, with great food, athmosphere...in short: As things should be!

By now we are all spread throughout europe, having various individual summer plans, and are very much looking forward to our next major happening:

Recording our second CD coming october! As always, thanks to all our fans for their support and the roaring crowds on the concerts, it is great to feel your amazing energy every time! On a side-note: Our website is currently receiving a minor facelift. In case something is quirky, or not what you would expect, please contact us and let us know!

Buyakano on the air in national spanish radio

19th of March 2013

IMAGE buyakano modern samba rap percussion live @ nre3 spanish radio show

It is our pleasure to have been played during "Sonideros" on RNE3, the 3rd national spanish radio station! This is the audio of their program, we are featured with Sascha Fabulous starting at 42:20. In case you missed it (...) you can now find it here as well as on their website.

So who now explains to me why Buyakano is being played on national spanish radio, in a country where the band has never been before, opposed to sooo many shows in the Netherlands or Germany with no airtime to show for it? Not that we are complaining, quite the opposite, just wondering. ;-) Current european financial politics by the german government finally show an effect: According to this broadcast, there are no germans in the band... Enjoy!

We play 2 sets, once a short preview of 25 minutes on the openAir stage at 16:00 o clock, and the second time on the stage of the Schlachthof in the evening at 21:45.

We are highly anticipating these 2 shows as they are the perfect showcase for all those samba fanatix in Germany. And, since we do something different than the rest, the audience is bound to either love or hate it ;-)

Buyakano in the Studio!

16th of February 2012

Buyakano is currently recording their debut EP in the DJC Studio!
It is a great pleasure to be working with Manuel Cooymans on this, having recorded the album of Medicamento he has excellent expertise in the sound we wish to create: Fresh and hip, strong yet dynamic.

Featuring Jenny, Andy and Irene on vocals, with strong horns and a fat bass these recordings are sure to be a blast! A bombastic wall of sound indeed!

Buyakano featured on Radio6!

8th of February 2012

Radio 6 has featured a video from a recent performance of our take on Outkasts "Hey Ya!" on their blog. Check it out, that evening was truly fun... Thanks to Guido for the exposure, and of course to everybody that helped that evening happen! Well, they actually called us Buyakana, but hey, I guess that's what you get for picking a name that weird ;-)
