Japan’s @sakuratsuruta appears for the first time on Will Hofbauer’s @thirdplacerecords with a new EP, ‘What Are You Drinking?’, a dreamscape of soothing synths, rubbery basslines, and playful, unrelenting grooves.

"The question, "what are you drinking?" for me is a soft invitation - something I find myself asking when the bass is thumping, and I’m feeling a little social. This EP is a toast to that moment - the buzz, the curiosity, the clinking glasses, and spontaneous laughter. A sonic nightcap for the dancefloor," she says.

* FULL INTERVIEW:  https://boltingbits.com/mixed-by-sha-ru

Blending spoken word, heavy bass and club-driven experimentation into something raw, physical and deeply immersive, Sha Ru have carved out a sound that is as cerebral as it is visceral — one that uses low frequencies, texture and space to question how music is felt, not just heard. Their sonic world thrives on contrasts: poetry and pressure, intimacy and intensity, narrative and noise. It’s a language built from the ground up, tuned as much to the body’s response as to the ear’s perception.

With their brand-new self-released EP Vibra Vibra (out October 23), Sha Ru push this philosophy even further. Each track explores how sound ripples through the body and transforms space: sub-bass compressing the chest, subterranean frequencies grounding the gut, buzzing waves pulsing through the skull. It’s a work that positions bass as architecture — a tangible force shaping bodies and rooms alike — and in doing so, it reimagines the dancefloor as a deeply physical environment.

To mark the release, Sha Ru join our MIXED BY series with both an exclusive mix and an in-depth conversation. Across the interview below, the duo dive into the sonic science behind Vibra Vibra, the collaborative dynamic that powers their work, and the political and poetic dimensions that run through their art. Then, in the mix, they extend that exploration into a hypnotic, body-centric journey — a sonic landscape built to be felt in every cell as much as heard in every ear.
