Japanese artist Tohji returns with new single ‘Phenomeno’.
The genre-blitzing multi-hyphenate has enjoyed a storming 12 months, with some of his performances going viral. Curating intimate secret shows with NTS in Osaka’s docklands, Tohji has also packed out stadium arenas with Zepp Yokohama and Zepp Osaka.
Launching into a fresh chapter, new single ‘Phenomeno’ is ruthlessly creative. Out now, it’s an incredible return, an exhilarating, pulse-quickening dose of future-facing pop that refuses to sit in any one lane.
Constructed alongside close friend Dark0 from multidisciplinary Swede label YEAR0001, ‘Phenomeno’ is another mark of his rugged rise. Tohji comments…
“It’s not about a dichotomy between Japan and the rest of the world, that’s an outdated view… but cultural borders are always shifting and I want my work to feel like it’s at these new intersections”.
Check it out now.
Catch Tohji at London’s Fire venue on April 24th.
