Honnda

Honnda "could alter how you view dance music from here on out." -Impose Magazine

"There are a million weird similes that could be used to describe Honnda’s Diamonds In The Microwave. You could say that it’s like being in a nightclub made of melting candy and power tools. You could say it’s like being at a futuristic pep rally at a school for wayward mannequins. That said, you don’t need an onslaught of fetishy creative writing to tell you that this album isn’t like anything you’ve heard before." - Stereogum

Described by Thump as a "molecular, plasticine anarchy," Amnon Freidlin keeps it as base as possible while positing a hyper-detailed, violently elastic approach to jubilation. Blinged out enough for the next world's dance floor or a Tyondai Braxton orchestral score, the NYC workhorse etches a fully formed language into the stone. Going stag as Honnda, he also works on video and audio in Mouthguard88, plays guitar with chamber-punk experimentalists Normal Love, and is a former member of psychedelic post-industrial unit Zs. Channeling a common ancestor to disparate beasts, Freidlin has seamlessly been able to share stages with forces as varied as Sightings, J-Cush of Future Brown, The Sun Ra Arkestra, and Matmos. With contributions from Dai Burger and Will Rahilly, his latest release -- Diamonds in the Microwave -- is out now on Orange Milk (US) via tape, and Attracted Vinyl (UK) on wax.
