"Essentia" is the first episode of a six-part DJ mix series called CIRCUITS. Each of the six editions of CIRCUITS will focus on a different style and mood, reflecting my deep love for all angles of electronic music and beyond. 

"Essentia" is a 66-minute ride focuses on raw, straightforward techno music that captures the energy in the middle of the night – no long intros, no filler, straight to the point. While some of the tunes have been long-time favorites I’d enjoyed playing during my residency sets at :// about blank, this mix symbolizes the conclusion of the pandemic for me while celebrating the return to club and nightlife.

In neuroscience, a circuit can refer to a group of neurons that are connected in a specific way to produce a particular function, such as the circuits involved in vision, hearing, or movement. So listen, dance, and enjoy the journey!

mu”he

A highly-regarded talent established at the forefront of Tokyo's vibrant underground club scene, and a resident of renowned techno club VENT Tokyo since 2018, mu"he has built an unquestionable reputation as a versatile DJ with incredible depth of selection. Now based in Berlin, she is earning a bright reputation in Europe as well for her long dedication to the dance music community and authentic love for music.

With a broad style forged by long days of digging crates and stumbling upon all sorts of electronic music gems, mu”he’s techno sets move far beyond the latest subgenres, incorporating influences from 80’s Japanoise, 90’s old school rave and 2000’s left-field electronica. Her depth of knowledge allows her to build wide-ranging sets that meld cutting edge sounds with forgotten classics, interspersing tough physical grooves with moments of timeless dancefloor euphoria. mu”he’s style is imbued with the purpose of preserving the essential and treasured values of dance music that moves hearts and bodies irrespective of time period or genre.

mu"he founded the eclectic FUSION party at renowned Tokyo techno club VENT in 2019. FUSION proved to be a disruptive influence on a stagnating Tokyo techno scene, with the VENT resident curating progressive and varied line-ups featuring a forward-thinking generation of fresh local talent. An influence that can still be felt today, as Tokyo’s underground scene continues to blossom in unexpected directions, with the new school leading the charge.

Based in Berlin since May 2023, mu”he has been quickly booking appearances at some of Berlin’s best clubs and festivals across Europe in the last year–most notably: Whole Festival, Berlin Atonal, La Nature Festival In Belgium, and an array of Berlin clubs including ://about blank, RSO, and Tresor. She continues to maintain a busy touring schedule in Asia as well, having toured Japan and China twice in the last year. 

In May 2024, she founded her own label PARNASSUS with the vision of creating timeless dance music for bold, sexy, and free dancefloors and released her first EP featuring two original tracks and remixes by two of Japan’s most prominent producers: DJ SHUFFLEMASTER, a techno producer with close ties to Berlin’s legendary club and label Tresor since the 90s, and Mars89, a singular and important talent in Tokyo’s underground scene. 



勢いを増す東京アンダーグラウンドクラブシーンの最前線で高い評価を得るmu"heは、2018年から東京の名門テクノクラブ「VENT」のレジデントを務め、幅広い選曲と深い音楽的洞察力で揺るぎない存在感を築いてきた。現在はベルリンを拠点とし、ダンスミュージックコミュニティへの長年の献身と音楽への真摯な愛情から、ヨーロッパでも高い注目を集めている。

mu"heの音楽スタイルは、長い歳月をかけてレコードを掘り起こし、多彩な電子音楽を発見してきた経験に基づく。彼女のテクノセットは80年代のノイズ・エクスペリメンタル、90年代のオールドスクールレイブ、2000年代のレフトフィールド・エレクトロニカといった幅広い影響を取り入れ、最先端のサウンドと忘れ去られた名曲を融合させる。タフでフィジカルなグルーヴとダンスフロアの高揚感を織り交ぜながら、ダンスミュージックの本質的な価値を追及する。

2023年5月からベルリンを拠点に活動を開始し、Whole Festival、Berlin Atonal、Lunchmeat Festival(Czech)、La Nature Festival（Belgium）といったフェスティバルや、://about blank、RSO、Tresorなどベルリンの主要クラブでのプレイを次々と実現させている。アジアでも精力的にツアーを行い、今秋は日本、中国、タイ、台湾を跨ぐアジアツアーを成功させた。

2024年5月には自身のレーベル「PARNASSUS」を立ち上げ、「大胆で自由なダンスフロアのためのタイムレスな音楽」というモットーのもと1st EPをリリース。オリジナルトラック2曲に加え、ベルリンのレーベルTresorと親交の深いプロデューサーDJ SHUFFLEMASTERと、東京のアンダーグラウンドシーンで重要な存在であるMars89によるリミックスが収録されている。
