about
Shinichi Atobe (b. 1971) is a Saitama-based producer who has been making house and techno music since he was 27 years old. For more than a decade, the only release to his name was a 12-inch titled Ship-Scope (2001), which came out on the cult-favorite dub techno label Chain Reaction. During the early 2010s, Miles Whittaker and Sean Canty of Demdike Stare tracked down the Japanese producer and released Atobe’s first full-length album, Butterfly Effect (2014), on their record label DDS. In the years since, Atobe has been relatively prolific, releasing a slew of LPs including World (2016), From The Heart, It’s a Start, a Work of Art (2017), Heat (2018), Yes (2020), and Love of Plastic (2022). His newest record is a 12-inch titled Ongaku 1. For his entire career, Atobe has been referred to as a mysterious figure due to the lack of biographical information available online. He has, however, performed live: he had a DJ set in 2017 at KGR(n) in Shinjuku, and he had a live electronic music set in 2023 at WWW in Shibuya.
