Yuji Kondo is a Japanese producer and a longtime friend of the Void+1 administration, known for his complex, experimental approach to sound and a blend of industrial, noise, and dark ambient elements that he effortlessly materializes into dancefloor-shattering constructs.
Whether as Yuji Kondo, Ducerey Ada Nexino, or in duo as Steven Porter, Nuts Star (with the mighty Katsunori Sawa), each of his productions radiates with avant-garde, disorienting, and nonconformist energy that is sadly seldom felt in the scene, so it is no surprise that he grabbed the attention of behemoths like Aphex Twin and Clark.
“One of the best electronic music producers on the planet” is a bold statement, but one that is absolutely safe to make in this occasion.
We are proud to present to you the first of his many works to come on Void+1: “Mecha Prowess”, a 2-track EP that will prompt you to wonder: Is it industrial-leaning? Hypnotic? Reductionist? Complex? It is all and none of the above, as it defies conventional structures and is uniquely “Yuji Kondo,” while marking his best work yet in the domain of techno.
