EMC Presents: Soichi Terada LIVE

Electronic Music Council are proud to present a unique spectacle this jazz Weekend, via an exclusive live performance from House royalty, Soichi Terada, supported by stalwarts of the local scene Danilo milk & Patfeelgood.

Soichi Terada has long been a bastion of charming house music in

Japan. A recent showcase of his work by Hunee - "Sounds From The

Far East" - on the Rush Hour label, though, has turned a western

audience on to his pleasingly innocent yet emotionally resonant

sound, and as such he is now heading over with a full live show.

Over the course of a long career that dates back to the ‘80s, Terada

has been responsible for the soundtracks of computer games like

Ape Escape, as well as countless great releases on his Far East

Recordings label alongside good friend Shinichiro Yokota.

With a sound that bares the subtle hallmarks of 80s and 90s New

York, Terada has continually cooked up his own melodically rich slant

on house, and for that reason he has always stood out. Ranging in

style from personable and fun to moody and soulful, he has a broad

sound palette that is full of character and humour. Tracks like the

Larry Levan backed ”Sun Shower," which he produced in 1989 for the

Japanese singer Nami Shimada, are full melody and stirring

arrangement that never fail to connect with dancers and DJs alike.

His live show re-creates these classic old tracks and newer material -

in captivating fashion.
