Kurashi Soundsystem

Kurashi Soundsystem is an innovative collective of experimental electronic musicians and multimedia artists based in Tokyo, Japan. Founded in 2018, the group explores the intersection of ambient soundscapes, traditional Japanese instrumentation, and cutting-edge digital production, creating immersive sonic environments that blur the line between performance and installation art. Known for their atmospheric live shows that incorporate interactive visuals and site-specific elements, Kurashi Soundsystem draw inspiration from Tokyo’s bustling urban landscapes and the quieter philosophies of Japanese minimalism.

Their acclaimed debut album, "Echoes of the Metropolitan Dawn," released in 2021, garnered attention for its unique fusion of field recordings, modular synths, and manipulated koto textures. Continually pushing the envelope with collaborations across disciplines—ranging from dancers to architects—the members of Kurashi Soundsystem remain devoted to crafting intimate yet expansive audio experiences that reflect the ever-changing rhythms of contemporary Japanese life.
