Soichi Terada has long been a bastion of charming house music in Japan. A recent showcase of his work by Hunee - "Sounds From The Far East" - on the Rush Hour label, though, has turned a western audience on to his pleasingly naive yet emotionally resonant sound, and as such he is now touring with a full live show. Over the course of a long career that dates back to the '80s, Terada has been responsible for the soundtracks of computer games like Ape Escape, as well as for countless great releases on his Far East Recordings label alongside good friend Shinichiro Yokota.
Born in 1995, SEKITOVA was raised in a house where Jazz and Electronica was played everyday. In his elementary school days, his mother organized club events and during this period he received a mixtape of DaveDK. This mixtape inspired the young SEKITOVA to produce music and build upon his current style. Simultaneously, Daft Punk's Discovery was on non-stop repeat at his house, which also became a main source of his influences. At the age of 12, SEKITOVA started music production, and made releases through internet label "Maltine Records", his album "premature moon and the shooting star" was released in 2012. As a DJ, his wide selection of minimal and deep tracks have gained wide support and over the past few years his name has started to show up on the line-ups of major festivals and club events.
Born in 1977 Park Arai studied and specialized in graphic design, alongside his branding and promotion business he has worked as an illustrator for apparel brands, websites and advertisements. He has also collaborated with the Italian music label IRMA Records' Japan select store "IRMA RECORDS MERCH STORE", and has sold special items with his own illustrations on each release.
