The third proper long-player from TOKiMONSTA is both a logical progression of her sound and a surprising left turn from an artist that rarely ceases to surprise. Jennifer Lee, better known by her alias TOKiMONSTA, is a producer and label owner who’s been an instrumental part of building the West Coast’s reputation as a beat-making cultural destination. Lee’s work as TOKiMONSTA gained widespread recognition from the very start: her 2010 debut album, Midnight Menu, saw release on Flying Lotus’ Brainfeeder imprint and cemented her reputation as a formidable presence of the then-emerging West Coast beat scene.

Lune Rouge is the culmination of all the experiences I've encountered so far," Lee explains the album's genesis, which she started work on in late 2015 before being diagnosed with a rare neurovascular condition called Moyamoya. "However, a red moon is rare and pretty awesome event from a scientific perspective and, to me, means significant change." Elsewhere, the MNDR-featuring “We Love” serves up perfect summer vibes with aquatic synth stabs and an instantly infectious chorus.

Seeing myself at the edge of my own mortality and how I chose to move past is a story told in this album.". TOKiMONSTA is a Korean-American producer, songwriter, and DJ who emerged from the Los Angeles beat scene at the end of the 2000s, then gradually expanded her sound over the following decades, spanning electro-pop, house, and alternative R&B. From the battle grounds to his latest moniker Parker, Jonathan Park (a.k.a.Dumbfoundead) in less than a decade has built a legendary history in the LA hip-hop scene. It was through this experience as a producer Kero realized his new mission; to remain true to his style as an independent solo artist while producing on the side for major vocalists worldwide. Lee was invited to attend the Red Bull Music Academy in London in 2010. A year later, after two major brain surgeries and extensive rehabilitation, Lune Rouge was finished. In 2017, Forbes Magazine wrote a feature piece on Kero’s music, calling it “a grand exercise in mixing modern sensibilities with old-school, funk-inspired sounds”. "I was a fan of hers for a while, so I have to shout out the world wide web for allowing two people on different continents the ability to create together. Five solo albums and many tours later, Kero crafted a following amongst fans of mellow and jazzy beats all over the globe. While he grew up listening to all genres of music, the hip-hop scene in the nineties was no doubt bustling – and through that Parker found his initial hip-hop clique that clicked and clacked from a Macarthur Park community center to Project Blowed, an open-mic workshop in south central LA. 2011’s Brainfeeder release Creature Dreams EP expanded on Midnight Menu 's palette with successful forays into vocal-led cuts thanks to the presence of regular collaborator Gavin Turek; the 2013 LP and Ultra Music debut Half Shadows found Lee exploring darker shades of her sound with guests such as Kool Keith and MNDR in tow. Staying true to his roots of producing feel good Jazzy beats paid off for Kero. As TOKiMONSTA, California producer Jennifer Lee’s charted a fascinating career over the past seven years, and Lune Rouge is her exhilarating next step. The message of the track is really more than unwanted phone calls, but the idea of people deciding to show up only when they need you.". She was the first woman to sign to Flying Lotus's Brainfeeder label and released her first album, Midnight Menu, in November 2010 on Brainfeeder. in association with City Parks Foundation's SummerStage and MeanRed, Saturday, August 11, 20186:00 pm - 10:00 pm (Doors open 5:00 pm), SummerStage, Central ParkRumsey Playfield, Manhattan, Admission is Free(First come first served, rain or shine), Breaking boundaries, bringing the beats: Korean-American musical forces rep lyrical jazz rap, defiant hip-hop, and atmospheric electronic hits, For the second year running, KOREA GAYOJE (‘music festival’) returns to New York’s most celebrated outdoor festivals, City Parks Foundation's SummerStage, to bring out an evening of musical masterminds -- Kero One, Dumfoundead, and TokiMONSTA-- who have broken boundaries of genre, geography, generation, and gender to just “make [dope] music.”.
Dumbfoundead is also an up and coming actor with supporting roles in Joseph Kahn’s "Detention" (2011) and Season 3 of "Power" (2016). The next year, she released Boom, an 11-track collaborative project with Suzi Analogue as Analogue Monsta. A smoky, patient, and altogether lovely collection, Lune Rouge mixes modern sensibilities with old-school sounds to make for a heady brew of moonlit music. "During its creation, I faced some of the most difficult and uplifting moments of my life. And Lune Rouge is the latest change in her prismatic career—a testament to the healing powers of art in the face of insurmountable difficulty. She was rated the #1 Hottest Los Angeles Lady DJ by LA Weekly in December 2010.
Jennifer Lee (born January 27, 1987 in Los Angeles, CA), better known by her stage name Tokimonsta (“Toki” is Korean for rabbit), is an American producer and DJ. Following Half Shadows ’ release, Lee collaborated with artists like Jessie Ware, Anderson .Paak, and Kelly Rowland, while also putting out several records on her own Young Art Records imprint that served as practical blueprints for the dusky environs of Lune Rouge. To stay updated on Instagram, find him @keroone. Kero One, a Korean-Californian rapper, producer, and DJ is considered one of the leaders of the jazz-hop and lo-fi sub-genre in the 2000’s.
TOKiMONSTA’s sound has always kept one foot in the pop stratosphere, but Lune Rouge finds her diving in with glee. All these roads lead to Lune Rouge, a lush work that stands as the summation of what she’s been cooking up since Half Shadows. Featuring a searing vocal take from Selah Sue, “I Wish I Could” fuses the clean-sounding classicism of contemporaries like Rhye with a buzzing throb that embodies the modern cool of contemporary R&B—and “No Way,” with features from Isaiah Rashad, Joey Purrp, and Ambre, sounds lovingly ripped from the dusty glory days of 90s hip-hop. "I chose the title Lune Rouge, which translates to 'red moon', because I think people perceive it to hold ominous weight," Lee explains her thinking behind the album's title.
Parker developed his skills with an exponential rise to local and even national acclaim with everything from rap battle videos with views in the millions, to spotlights on shows like Late Night with Carson Daly, most recently his curator role in one of K-town’s most happening parties: Spamneggs alongside Far East Movement and Tokimonsta. After releasing his self-produced single “Check the Blueprints” in 2003, he quickly found underground fame in Japan for his niche jazz hiphop sound, eventually selling over 75k copies of his various albums and singles there. Exemplifying the focus of SummerStage: music diversity, and community, join us for this iconic event that brings together a lineup of Korean-American artists who will get you from low-key grooving to straight up jumping!
