Syntax Error EP by Ken Ishii

The Japanese artist and Techno pioneer Ken Ishii debuts the EP, Syntax Error, on Mind Medizin.

Techno producer and DJ Ken Ishii announces "Syntax Error" releasing on Lady Tazz's label Mind Medizin in March, featuring a remix from html_. A prolific artist and one of the pioneers of Japan's Techno scene, Ishii's work traverses the spectrum of the genre. "Syntax Error" speaks in Ishii's percussive dialect with hi-hats and snares that dart across sub-harmonic basslines and atmospheric pads, as synths perform sonic drive bys.

Colombian live production outfit html_ explore rhythms and soundscapes that span electro and breaks through to Techno, offering a remix of "Syntax Error" built from hypnotic loops, charged kick drums, and running synths.

As a leader in the Japanese electronic music scene, Ishii's label 70 Drums offered an alternative sound that spanned the spectrum of Techno, allowing Ishii to experiment and push boundaries, with releases on RSPX, Cocoon, Sway, and more.

An active DJ and producer since 1993, Ishii's commitment and influence in the Techno scene have stretched across continents, with performances and collaborations worldwide. Ishii is now working on future collaborations with producers Masaki Sakamoto, Mickey Zhang, and David Catellani.
