Varo

台湾电音摇滚乐团
由瓢虫、锡盘街乐队吉他手琬婷为创作根基，逐步向外扩展的音乐计划。前后两张专辑的助拳乐手几乎全数换血。目前的阵容是琬婷、小美、蔡易达。以电子摇滚曲风为主，现场表演时免不了串接着为数众多的Midi合成器、取样机与苹果计算机。因此，传统的乐手分工在她们身上并不完全适用。
曾登陆英国BBC，并三度登上英国著名专业音乐杂志 "The wire"获得高度评价!
团名灵感来自西班牙超写实女画家Remedios Varo。
VARO was formed by the female guitarist Wan Ting in 2004. She was in one of the Taiwan’s best post-rock bands, Tin Pan Alley.
The band name VARO is taken from the Spanish surrealist painter, Remedios Varo, who Wan Ting admires.
VARO previously released 2 full albums, both of which are mixtures of post-rock, electro, punk and break-beats. They are musically diverse throughout, full of energetic pop tunes capturing the very powerful and free spirit of Taiwanese youth culture.
Wan Ting studied in Chicago and took a degree in engineering. She has a very pure talent, as she records, mixes and edits all of the band’s sessions.
Her abilities were fully reflected in the first VARO album Hardcore Beach, critically-acclaimed by UK’s WIRE magazine. VARO played as the opening act for Four Tet in 2006 and gained strong recognition among fans of rock, techno and electronica.
VARO are currently in production for their third album. It will present a completely new form of dance music which only VARO can create from post-rock to break beats, high-energy, drawing influence from rave culture. And a huge step forward from their first two albums.
