- Giacomo Spazio
Two plus two make five is a coldwave band from Italy who released two lps, consisting of Nino La Loggia, Giacomo Spazio and Cha Cha Hagiwara. The band is especially known for their track called "Jacho's Story" which was released in 1985 on the "Into the Future" lp.
On a cold autumn evening in Milan in 1981, Nino La Loggia met Giacomo Spazio for the first time. The two had the same passion for music: Kraftwerk, Joy Division, DAF and the whole new scene of proto-electronic wave headed by Cabaret Voltaire. Together they decided to start the musical project called 2 + 2 = 5, a tribute to Orwellian dystopia. Shortly after, Cha Cha Hagiwara joined the band. Already a keyboard player in Jeunesse d'Ivoire, she enriched the band's raw sound with sonority and resonance which we can now define as analog. After several gigs around Milan, Turin and Switzerland, in 1983 the trio entered the studio to record their first LP titled '…Into The Future', now reissued by Mannequin Records for the 30th Anniversary.
