Foodman

Part of Japan’s flourishing juke scene, Foodman is the alias of Nagoya-based experimental producer Takahide Higuchi. Seamlessly combining nifty footwork with a broad range of sonic styles, his vast output delves into elements of Japanese traditional and ambient music, as well as Western dance and plunderphonic styles. Harnessing bright, plastic-sounding MIDI instruments and extreme negative space minimalism, Foodman’s offbeat, multicoloured sound palette comes into full bloom on his recorded output, radio shows and blissful live performances.
