Upcoming Events

Powder
. Just because you can't see beyond the turn doesn't mean there is nothing there. Like a view that appears suddenly on the road, Powder seems to be there "out of the blue," but it is as if it were just around the corner a short distance ahead. She still chooses winding roads on purpose, or she glimpses and disappears, and it is difficult to catch her in her entirety, but she does not disappear without a clue, nor does she sift out those who are interested in her on mean streets, but she leaves a presence and an impression, and she keeps a certain distance while running a little distance away from us. . but rather, they run a short distance away, maintaining their presence and impression.

Since the first release of the EP including the song "Spray" from "Born Free Records" in Stockholm in 2015 , and the debut of the ESP Institure " Highly EP", the band has been based in Japan. Since her debut with the "Highly EP", ( has been based in Japan, but has not actively renewed herself, which has helped with the lack of information, and has been parallel to the speculation of listeners who have not been able to catch all the movements, while at times answering their expectations, seemingly restless, but consistent. ), like her music, maintains a presence that is not influenced by genre maps, and continues to release music.

If one were to search for key words to describe Powder's tracks and DJing, such as "minimal, floating, funky..." to describe the impression of the tracks, no new words particularly come to mind, but the associations are But the associations are endless. When you get down to it, you realize that it is nothing but a left-field track, but at the same time, it has a deconstructed worldview that could be described as authentic left-fieldness that maintains a balance between being a universal dance track without being pierced by strangeness. It does not contain any symbols that instantly evoke a sense of the times, but rather is a combination of devices that are meticulously but simply organized, and seems to be pursuing a lack of familiarity rather than novelty.

Powder's bookings are very domesticated , unpredictable.
He handles all of his own bookings, from high-profile festivals to special gigs in small towns, but no matter where he is, he maintains a consistency that puts him in control of the "dance floor". . . but unlike the dexterous floor master he is actually a straightforward DJ who never abandons the good old groove that is the collective wisdom of the floor.
Stoically pursuing its function as a hedonistic track , it evokes simple emotions that come only after a long night. Messages and stimuli drift only in that atmosphere, giving each one as much power as it needs as a sensory experience.

What determines Powder's actions, whether large or small,
In 2019, he also launched his own label, Thinner Groove, as a more than just a gig venue for his ever-expanding personal output to fit comfortably within what seems to be a spontaneous and personal perspective. The label, which "showcases my friends' grooves," will gradually reveal the small, but trusted community that I hold most dear to my heart.

TG's most recent release is "Pre Zz" by 5AM, a band and group effort by longtime friends 5ive, Andry and Moko(=5AM) , Powder Moko, and Powder is a new side of the band as a producer.
