WaqWaq Kingdom is made up of Kiki (King Midas Sound / Ninja Tune) and Shige (aka Scotch Egg and from SeeFeel / Warp Records).  They also release on Jahtari Records.  Both are originally from Japan, lived in the U.K. for over a decade, and are now based in Leipzig and Berlin.

The moniker “White” first appeared several years ago during the No Beijing movement, when Shouwang, frontman for the popular group Carsick Cars, formed the guitar sextet White Ensemble for a performance at the China avant-garde music festival “Sally Can’t Dance.” During the same period, Shouwang also formed a rock duo called White 2J as well as the better known White, all as outlets for his more experimental ideas. No matter what form it has taken in the past few years, Shouwang’s “White Project” has remained one of the pioneers of and driving forces behind China’s underground music scene.
