Soichi Terada has long been a bastion of house music in Japan. His sound blends the hallmarks of ’80s and ’90s New York with his own melodically rich infusions. Jenifa Mayanja’s style of deep house is equally emotive and spiritual, with flowing rhythms, vocals, and melodies exuding warmth and tenderness. Duo Mood II Swing have been vital players in New York’s house music scene since the ’90s, often opting for soul and lounge music production and remixing over DJing. Russell E.L. Butler lays down their signature stripped-down, machine-driven improvisation via a DJ set. Malik Abdul-Rahmaan takes us through the ambient, jazz, and experimental realms.
