Hello, I have made a few changes to the site. Unfortunately, I am not quite finished yet, but it should continue without interruption. I hope you find the changes useful. Stay tuned.

This is another debut in the MiMi Records catalogue. Hailing from Japan’s second-largest city, Koichiro Okada delivers a complete record that explores several latitudes of electronic music, featuring strong “banger” tracks.
From techno to house, with a nod to minimal dub, Okada takes us on a groovy and immersive journey that is also dark and hypnotic at times, as heard on the closing track “Resolution.”
Inner Space is an EP made for the dance floor, but also for more chill moments. Highly recommended listening!!!
The number of truths is as many as the number of people.
We are only ourselves.
Please receive each element (song) through your own interpretation.
To all the artists who participated in EPV and were involved in our 15th anniversary——.

After four years of “silence,” CaӤdySyлc return to MiMi Records with a new EP.
recess EP is a lolicore explosion blending breakcore, speedcore, drum’n’bass, and noise. Sharp, high-pitched lolita vocals and abrupt endings mark each track with intensity and irreverence. If you’re a true otaku who vibes with the spirit of Akihabara, this record is made for you.
Get ready for a sonic overdose of pure energy and otaku aesthetics.

Another debut in the label’s catalog. Ryohei Kurihara releases his two-track mini EP titled “Afterimage of Words, a Place Beyond Return”, bringing us his ambient drone, echoing traces of his previous works.
The record sounds like sonic shadows that linger in memory, guiding us toward a territory where return is impossible—only slow, radiant contemplation in gentle waves of sound.
It offers nearly 20 minutes of layered sonorities that reveal an emotional space where silence breathes between grainy textures. Kurihara shapes frequencies with meditative precision, allowing each drone to unfold like a blurred memory.
The result is a sensorial crossing that deepens the meaning of the title, where words disappear but sensations remain to this day.

We welcome and congratulate Koichiro Okada for his first release on Pertin-nce.
This album has it all; pure techno, house and electronica.
Raw, groovy, moody, fun, dance floor oriented and dj friendly but also appropriate for more relaxed situations.
Japanese project ish10 yow1r0 presents Jude EP, a three-track release that draws listeners into a world of shadowed tones and quiet intensity. Known for cultivating a melancholic atmosphere reminiscent of film noir soundtracks, the project delivers music that is both haunting and cinematic.
This EP carries a distinct cinematic quality, with each piece unfolding like a scene from an untold story. Subtle layers of mood and texture create an immersive experience, where silence and sound blur into moments of solitude and reflection.
With Jude EP, ish10 yow1r0 continues to shape music that resonates deeply—evocative, atmospheric, and cinematic in scope.
It’s another debut in the MiMi Records catalog. From the Japanese capital, we receive “Structure Out”, an album by Tiger A that is truly a work of art, where piano improvisation and the blend of ambient sounds go hand in hand, creating a unique auditory experience.
The fusion of flowing melodies with ethereal sonic textures induces a state of contemplation, where the boundaries between music and visuals fade away. The production is subtle yet impactful, inviting deep immersion.
This album is a testament to Tiger A’s ability to tell emotional, transcendent stories through his piano. An album to be listened to without any reservations.
Experimental artist Dagshenma returns to MiMi Records with his new album titled nut(s) — an intense dive into the emotional and sensory cacophony of contemporary life.
Blending elements of noise, ambient, and musique concrète, nut(s) gives voice to inner disorder — a sonic confusion that unsettles and liberates in equal measure. The work challenges the listener to find beauty in noise, and structure within rupture.
Dagshenma, known for exploring the outer edges of conventional music, once again delivers a stimulus to strangeness, much like in his previous album Kyoto Japan Walk.
nut(s) is less an album and more an experience – a lucid cacophony that turns chaos into art.
This is the latest release from Japanese multi-instrumentalist Reiko Nonoyama.
This work, consisting of only two tracks and it’s the third in the series titled “Solo” In this album, Nonoyama explores the sonic possibilities of free improvisation, playing drums, piano, and percussion.
“Solo 3” reflects her intimate and experimental approach, which is a hallmark of her musical journey.
An album that offers a unique auditory experience, combining elements of free jazz and sound art, and stands out as an authentic expression of Nonoyama’s creativity.
Japanese artist nosomoso delivers a work of ambient electronic music marked by subtlety and depth. Drawing from the click and cuts universe and structured around slow-paced rhythms, the album builds minimalist soundscapes where each sound seems to emerge organically and precisely. Rhythmic elements are discreet, almost imperceptible, yet essential to the flow of the compositions.
There are echoes of introspective IDM, with textured glitches and ethereal melodies blending naturally into the stillness. Rather than aiming for tension or climax, Rift embraces calmness as a driving force, allowing motion to unfold through the smallest details – clicks, noises, electronic breaths.
The result is a contemplative and sensitive album, where the natural movement of sounds arises from silence, revealing a mature and refined piece of work that values space and time as core sonic elements.
PSYCHO-TRIBE unveils Tomoshibi, a four-track record blending drums, environmental textures, and acoustic instruments. Meaning “candlelight” in Japanese, Tomoshibi symbolizes a guiding light through darkness, reflecting catharsis and future messages through sound.
Fusing organic and digital elements, PSYCHO-TRIBE crafts Contemporary Groove Music, pushing sonic boundaries with Kyoto’s artistic essence. Tomoshibi offers a meditative yet intense journey into light and shadow.
Japanese electronic and improvisational artist TaUYu DeShiI crafts an atmospheric soundscape inspired by a journey through Okinawa’s remote islands.
“MY MEMORY” was created mid-trip, the album blends ambient electronica with fluid improvisation, evoking a sense of movement and discovery.
Soft synth textures and organic sound elements mirror the islands’ mystique, capturing fleeting moments of travel. The music radiates exoticism, not as a concept but as a lived experience.
Fans of ambient and minimal electronic music will find this release immersive—an invitation to drift through sound, just as the artist drifted through the islands.
UNFAIR, is a sonic journey that breaks boundaries, blending elements of electronica, ambient and lo-fi into an immersive experience.
The project captures the essence of modern otaku culture, where digital and physical realities merge. While each track is a sonic landscape that feels both futuristic and nostalgic, they are quite similar, taking the listener on a journey through their most vivid thoughts and memories.
The invitation is extended to explore the fantastic world of Chang Diz.
It’s the first album of 2025 and the debut work of Japanese artist Atsuto Yamamoto, known for exploring the boundaries of noise and harsh noise.
“1 Plus 0 Is More or Less Than 10” is an album built on layers of saturated noise, abrasive frequencies, and unsettling moments of silence. Each track seems to exist on the threshold between everything and nothing, between “1” and “0,” evoking the idea that even extremes can overlap, distort, or lose definition.
Yamamoto employs a combination of analog synthesizers, manipulated recordings, and custom-built equipment to create sonic textures that feel tangible, almost as if the sound could be physically felt on the skin.
Prepare yourself for a unique experience. “1 Plus 0 Is More or Less Than 10” is not an album to be merely heard – it is an album to be confronted.
We have another debut on MiMi Records. Japanese artist Ryo Kawawada brings us “Paludarium”, an ambient and introspective album that blends the softness of acoustic guitar with natural sounds, creating a serene and contemplative atmosphere.
Kawawada uses the guitar delicately, creating subtle sonic layers that evoke images of peaceful landscapes, like a walk through a swamp. The album conveys a sense of calm, yet maintains a slight tension, inviting deep listening.
With a minimalist approach, “Paludarium” is a work that celebrates the connection with nature and the ability of music to create hypnotic and evocative soundscapes.
Calvary, the latest work from the Japanese project Mimamamis, is a deep dive into the abyss of harsh noise, a true auditory calvary that pushes the listener to the limits of sonic endurance.
The album, consisting of just three tracks, brings chronic feedback, massive distortions, and extreme saturation. Each track is an attempt to force the listener to confront the discomfort of repetitive, brutally compressed sounds.
Mimamamis makes no concessions, and the result is a work that approaches the concept of calvary: an unrelenting journey that is difficult to endure, yet fascinating at the same time. In terms of structure, the tracks of Calvary are minimalist, but not in a conventional sense. They slowly build in heavy layers of noise, creating a sense of suffocation and oppression.
In summary, Calvary by Mimamamis is a radical work within the harsh noise genre, distinguished by its ability to provoke discomfort, pushing the listener to confront their own emotional resistance to the brutality of the sound.
Hyakunenme EP is the latest release from Gnyonpix, who dives into the world of chiptune in an innovative and engaging way. Combining the retro aesthetic of 8-bit music with a contemporary production style.
The four tracks are a true journey through time, capturing the energy of classic ’80s and ’90s video games, but with an added layer of sophistication.
While chiptune is often associated with instrumental themes, Gnyonpix incorporates vocals in a subtle yet effective way, as seen in the title track “Hyakunenme,” which also gives its name to the EP.
Hyakunenme EP is an album that captures the essence of chiptune and 8-bit music, offering a true tribute to the digital aesthetic, but with a forward-thinking approach to the future of electronic music.
A new freshman has arrived at MiMi Records. Shikisokuzemu, is a Japanese electronic music producer, and brings us a fascinating album that mixes breakbeat rhythms, vocaloid vocals and otaku influences.
Known for intricate production, Shikisokuzemu’s work here is meticulously, pairing the frenetic energy of breakbeat with voices from imaginary anime series.
With its seamless blend of breakbeat, Vocaloid and Japanese otaku elements, Shikisokuzemu offers a new perspective on electronic music, fusing past and future in a fascinating sonic journey.

Yusaku Iida is a Japanese electronic music producer and DJ that works under the artist name NYORAI, producing his own unique blend of electronica, IDM, experimental music and ambient soundscapes.
His music includes the scenery and atmosphere of Japan and depicts the changing seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter there and the spirit of Zen(禅).
Also a descendant of the Samurai(侍).
“Shinkirō (蜃気楼)” is his debut on Mahorka, specially prepared for the label, released April 27, 2024 as free (cc) digital download and beautiful limited digipak edition.
I like techno and I make music. This is the calling card of Takashi Kusano, the new member to join the MiMi Records family.
The delicacy and musicality of this phrase are evident in his musical productions.
Computer Music Self Portrait 2 is an interesting record that revolves around elegant variations of electronic music, as well as an excellent musical portrait of Kusano.
‘Believe’, the opening, is the most environmental track on this 5-track album. A hypnotic theme with multiple layers of synth pads.
Other highlights: ‘Frontier’, a melodic and minimalist slow-tempo slow-techno track that unfolds over 7 minutes. Or ‘Fragmentary impromptu’, one track that shows the artist’s versatility in other electronics.
