Takahiro Mukai

Takahiro Mukai is a Japanese electronic composer based in Osaka. He has released a large body of work, mostly on small tape and digital labels, ranging from glitchy abstract techno with broken, shifting rhythms to ambient synth pieces and passages built from shortwave noise. His labels include Fort Evil Fruit, Cruel Nature, Moss Archive, Phinery Tapes and Paralaxe Editions. On the tape Spell, released by the Moscow label Nazlo Records in January 2022, one side is made of glitches and shortwave interference and the other moves from ambient music into synth tones.
