This mix is a sonic weaving I made while thinking about the bath, about water and the dream state that is so accessible through water. Enjoy. Love, Eva.

Japanese drummer and producer Takafumi Okada has had his hands in several projects over the last 12 years or so, and, like with his music, patterns emerge: his discography is full of DIY sounds, an unconventional attitude to production, and an ability to create tension and mystery with layered polyrhythmic grooves.

Takafumi is well known as the former drummer of goat, the experimental band from Osaka. His mathematical lock-grooves helped to zone-out minds and levitate audiences between 2017-2023, notably on goat’s third album “Joy In Fear”. Prior to that, Takafumi was playing in his trio The Noup, a formation of guitar, bass, drums and synths that found their own balance of no wave and trippy homemade sounds over the course of several releases since 2013.

Under his Manisdron alias, Takafumi has a clutch of weighty records and tapes. In particular a 12” EP and double LP “Body of Void” on US label L.I.E.S. demonstrates his high-octane, industrial style, made on hardware and a drum kit. There are also Manisdron tapes of glitchy scatterbomb electronics to be discovered on Takafumi’s own label Cathodic.

Takafumi’s new project Nboj Tespo is another intriguing offshoot. Warm electronic sounds are layered with polymetric rhythms across nine tracks, and arranged in such a way as to bring listeners into a hypnotic dance state. Takafumi combines his Elektron Machinedrum, Boss delay pedal and Novation Bass Station 2 at his home studio, to produce minimal grooves that grow into fully-fledged creatures and take on a life of their own.

While Manisdron is one side of Takafumi’s solo output - that is, industrial and machine-like rhythms made with a real drum kit - Nboj Tespo flips that premise, and creates organic songs with a drum machine. The artist name also hides a clue: shift every letter of Manisdron down a notch and we find ourselves on the other side of the alias - the same identity but from a different viewpoint.

If the viewpoint of Nboj Tespo has a theme, it’s one of finding positivity in life, or a mysterious sense of satisfaction in the everyday. That makes “Blessed Planet” a perfect companion, for both the inside and the outside world.

A Fatal Crossing

We present to you a recording of the first half of Hypnotic Spa at Sustain Release: Year Five. We were very happy to be invited to close-out the Grove stage at Camp Kennybrook on Saturday morning. What transpired among the pines was pure magic, a spiritual exercise that echoed the sacred traditions of our ancestors, and one that might best represent our efforts with this music more than ever before. It was a blessing and an honor to perform. 

Thank you for listening and for joining us on this journey, may the time you spend with us be blessed and enriching. Special thanks to Zack Kerns for recording this, and a deep thank you to Aurora, Daniel and everyone else for the wonders they do with Sustain-Release. "It's moments like these that we find who we are and recognize ourselves, our place among the cosmos, through time, our journey and beyond. Pure love to all those who tune-in with us and feel the magic, we love you and we're so glad you're here with us!" -Hypnotic Spa

E2E: What environment or context did you have in mind when recording the mix?

I noticed that all the Ear 2 Ear mixes had a particular theme so before I was even asked to contribute to the series, I had a particular theme in mind for it - if I ever got asked to contribute that is. The theme I chose was music for stargazing. Which brings me back memories to some of the most special and spiritual experiences I've had with my closest friends. I wanted to create a mix of music that suited the environment we found ourselves in. A group of us alone, set on a beach with the ocean washing the sand as we lay there staring into the open sky. The stars twinkling as the air sung in the background, all of us in a complete state of relaxation, losing all sense of self, transcending and connecting as one, with each other and with the earth itself.

E2E: Tell us a bit about your new Body Corp alias, have you got any new work coming up?

Body Corp is I guess an outlet for more electronic/dance music that I write. I’m currently working on finishing another 2 EPs mainly and always just working on new tracks, especially during this time while there’s more of it. One of the EPs is a follow up to the first release with Soothsayer and the other is in its early stages and a bit more relaxed, less for the dance floor and more for listening at home. That one is a work in progress so we’ll see where it goes.. シ
