冥丁 MEITEI

MEITEI

Hiroshima-based artist Meitei creates intimate, conceptual music under the rubric “Lost Japan” (Shitsu-Nihon)—evoking an elusive atmosphere fading from Japanese culture, fused with the anonymity of classical aesthetics. Blending electronic, ambient, hip-hop, and experimental idioms, he crafts work poised between past and present. His discography includes the landmark trilogy—KWAIDAN (Evening Chants), KOMACHI (Métron Records), and KOFU (Part I–III; KITCHEN. LABEL)—released on labels in Japan and abroad, through which he has rapidly become a distinctive voice in contemporary electronic music. Alongside his solo practice, he composes commissioned scores for campaigns and events by global brands, including Cartier, Shiseido IPSA, Merrell, Nike Jordan, and Homme Plissé Issey Miyake.
