Fujiya & Miyagi - Biography

Fujiya & Miyagi are three musicans Steve Lewis (Fujiya), David Best (Miyagi), Matt Hainsby (Ampersand).

Steve and David first connected through shared musical interests and Sunday league football and mutual hero-worship of world heavyweight wrestler Kendo Nagasaki, but went on to form a band and name it after Mr Miyagi from The Karate Kid (Wax on! Wax off!) and a brand of record player.

On record, their pulsing electronica belies their twin influences - 70’s Krautrock bands such as Can and Neu! and early-90’s electronica artists like Aphex Twin - while live they blow the roof off with analogue synths and speaker-threatening frequencies.
