The Saturday lineup also includes Xinh Xô – a Vietnamese-American electroacoustic/electronic composer and improviser, whose works aim to re-contextualise the essence of traditional instruments through spectral processing and interactive manipulation of the acoustic sound by computer. Other highlights of the day will be a performance by Israeli music producer and singer Totemo, who will perform songs from her first full-length LP ‘ Everything Happens Only Once’. He will be supported by Lu.Tre.Chau – a band of famous and U-60 “veteran” artists, including MMF’s founder Nguyễn Quốc Trung (keyboard), Trần Thái Châu (vocals), Yvol Ênuôi (drums) and Trương Nam Phong (guitar).
