Live audio-visual set 
at SONAR Festival, Barcelona 2025
yaboihanoi recently brough a tour-de-force of original Electronic Thai music and projections rooted in Thai Shadow Theater for his live audio-visual performance at SONAR 2025. The show brought listeners in SonarHall, the biggest stage in the SONAR DAY lineup,  on a musical journey into thumping dance beats anchored in Thai classical rhythm cycles and ethereal melodies written exclusively in Thai classical tuning systems instead of Western equal-tempered tuning. The showcase was a culmination of several years of exploratoons with a home-grown team of Thailand-based choreographers, dancers and designers alongside international friends and artists.  
Art needs context: a connection to a story, to a society, to a tradition. What matters isn’t the tool or process you use, but your ability as an artist to have a purpose, an intention, and to fight to bring it to life. .
🔴 “One of the most meaningful performances of SONAR 2025 — full of heart, intellect, and sonic risk.” — Festival Attendee
“Yaboi Hanoi isn’t just pushing AI music forward — he’s rethinking where the center of the global sound map should be.”
— Electronic Beats Magazine.
