訪問嘉賓:AIKO TOMI 富愛子
Toronto-based AIKO TOMI 富愛子 stands out as an artist with an unexpected sound, presence, and “lyrical deftness” (Exclaim!) that captivates audiences and sparks conversations. Described as “riveting—and fun” (NEXT Magazine), AIKO’s performances are known for their audacious authenticity and bold physicality; an energy that carries through her visually striking artistry that combines stylized portraits, vibrant digital art and self-shot videos. She brings a unique perspective to alt-pop with her “internet-tinged diaspora pop” songs, flavoured with her Japanese-Chinese heritage and Taiwanese roots.
Fresh from performances in Asia and Europe, AIKO TOMI has been spotlighted in The Guardian, Complex Canada, Exclaim!, CBC Radio, NXNE and the Jade Music Festival. She also curates “The Cult of AIKO TOMI,” a self-produced live music series showcasing diverse artists through Asian-inspired themes.
Praise for Aiko Tomi:
“Instantly inspire[s] anyone to defiantly flaunt their individuality” – The Guardian
“Prowling synths and percussion that taps like honed talons.” – Complex
“Riveting – and fun. Her show is energy and audacity with beats.” – NEXT Magazine
多倫多另類流行樂音樂人,以獨特的樂音、舞台風格和「精巧的歌詞」(《Exclaim!》) 吸引觀眾,並激發人們討論。富愛子的表演以「扣人心弦且充滿趣味」(《NEXT Magazine》) 著稱,充滿大膽的真實性和強烈的肢體表現力;這種能量貫穿於她視覺上引人注目的藝術創作中,其融合了風格化的肖像、鮮明的數位藝術以及自拍影片。她以她的日本台灣混血和台灣文化根源,為另類流行樂注入獨特視角,創作出帶有「網際網路風格的離散流行樂」歌曲。
剛從亞洲和歐洲的演出歸來,富愛子受到了《The Guardian》、《Complex Canada》、《Exclaim!》、《NEXT Magazine》、加拿大廣播公司(CBC Radio)、NXNE音樂節等的關注。她還策劃了一個名為「富愛子教派(The Cult of AIKO TOMI)」的自製現場音樂系列,透過亞洲主題邀請多元音樂人共同展演。
