空心才楽団

空心才楽団 (Kuushinsai Gakudan) is a DJ trio consisting of Nure Tengu, KATSU ARAI, and endorphin. Their distinct personalities intersect under the philosophy of “空心才, (Kuushinsai )” guiding the dancefloor into a world of pure pleasure.

Nure Tengu aka skm is the DJ alias of skm, the exceptionally talented drummer and vocalist of popular bands including HIMIZ, NEKOSOGI, ZAKINO, and BEATSEX, whose appearances at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL and beyond have drawn attention from across Japan. His instinctive sense of groove as a drummer, combined with the boundless curiosity of a natural-born music junkie, allows him to move freely across genre boundaries. The result is an unpredictable style that sends the dancefloor into ecstasy.

Drawing from her cutting-edge sensibility and vast musical archive, endorphin delivers DJ sets that flood the dancefloor with endorphins, creating an atmosphere of euphoria and pleasure. In recent years, she has also been highly active as a solo artist. Her regularly held party OPIOID at ENTER is rapidly growing with the ambition of becoming a new epicenter of Tokyo’s techno scene.

KATSU ARAI celebrated 30 years as a DJ last year, yet continues to evolve. He became the first Japanese artist to perform at NATURE ONE, one of Germany’s largest outdoor festivals, and has played at renowned festivals and clubs around the world, with extensive experience spanning 30 cities across nine countries. With techno at the core, he seamlessly crosses into a wide range of genres. His logically constructed selections create highly narrative-driven DJ sets, immersing the dancefloor in an experience that unfolds like an intense cinematic journey.
