螺旋響振 - Spiral Modulation -

Spin-off project of evangelists


Sound enters the body while tracing a spiral.
Layers of repetition and fluctuation overlap, and the sense of time slowly dissolves.

Rooted in Deep Techno, with elements of ambient, dub, minimal, and psychedelic sound,
the night constructs a space designed for complete immersion through dance.

Welcoming JAMIEST and JETSET TRASH, based in Seoul,
the event brings a cross-section of the Asian underground deep music scene
into the heart of Shibuya, Tokyo.

They are not merely DJs.
As organizers, promoters, and club owners,
they have long been designing both “space” and “time” within club culture.
Their perspective transforms the dance floor into a temporary space for reflection.

As the body moves and the dance continues, a series of questions begin to surface.

What is time?
What is purpose?
Is the future predetermined?
Does humanity hold meaning within the universe?
Can love transcend physical laws?

No clear answers are offered.
Instead, low-frequency vibrations and repeating rhythms move beyond thought,
turning these questions into lived experience through the body.

To dance is to let go of thinking.
Only through deep immersion do distortions of time and consciousness emerge.

“Rasen Kyoshin” is an attempt
to reconnect with existence itself
through the medium of the dance floor.

I’ve safely returned home!
To all my friends in Korea, thank you so much for always welcoming me so warmly.

“Finding the Wings I Once Lost” - 잃어버린 나의 날개를 찾아서

MØEUV/ KIMMINBOWUNICORN / RINALUCKY (JP) / K THE RATA (JP) / JAMIEST

빛과 소리가 엮어내는 비밀스러운 BBCB 정원에서
순수하고 아름다운 영혼들의 두번째 모임을 진행한다.

이번에는 특별히 도쿄 신의 두 아티스트, RINALUCKY와 K THE RATA를 초대했다.

2018년부터 WOMB, VENT, SOUND MUSEUM VISION 등 도쿄 주요 베뉴에서 활약해온 RINALUCKY는 안정적인 그루브와 이븐 킥을 중심으로 공간을 부드럽게 장악하는 플레이를 선보인다. 클럽을 넘어 라운지와 다양한 공간에서 쌓아온 경험이 그녀의 사운드를 더욱 단단하게 만든다.

1990년대 초반부터 활동해온 K THE RATA는 딥하고 미니멀한 테크노를 기반으로 한 실험적 사운드로 아시아 언더그라운드 신을 이끌어온 인물이다. Sanzen Onkyo와 evangelists를 통해 구축한 그의 음악적 세계는 구조적이면서도 깊은 몰입을 만들어낸다.

OPEN: 22:00-END
ENTRANCE FEE: 20,000KRW

“URBAN BREAK MOVEMENT”

일상의 속도를 잠시 내려놓고,
하우스와 테크노가 만들어내는 리듬 위에서
도시의 밤을 가장 아름답게 즐기는
성수동의 언더그라운드 무브먼트

Taking a brief pause from the pace of everyday life,
an underground movement in Seongsu
that enjoy the city’s night in the most beautiful way,
guided by the rhythms of house and techno.

日常のペースから少し離れて、
聖水洞のアンダーグラウンドな動きが
ハウスとテクノのリズムに導かれ、
最も美しい形で都会の夜を楽しむ。
