heavenphetamine improvisational set

dim • sam

Dim heavenphetamine is a duo from Japan composed of Hiroki Oda (keyboard/vocals) and Sara Oda (drums/vocals). Their idiosyncratic style is a blend of elements from krautrock, psychedelia, synthesizer music, post-punk, indie rock, and acid house, with a subtle Japanese flavor. On this occasion, the band will be playing a special improvisational set, with Hiroki and Sara both playing synthesizers and singing.

The couple left their hometown Tokyo in 2021 and have been touring Europe extensively ever since. So far they have played more than 200 shows in 37 countries, bringing their music to all kinds of venues, from squats to major festivals such as Tallinn Music Week, Trans Musicales and Fusion Festival, and performing regularly in the war-torn cities of Ukraine and recording with local musicians. Their first full-length album The Sun on a Winter Day, recorded in Kyiv amidst air raids and blackouts, was published in August 2024 by the Ukrainian label Kontrabass and issued on vinyl by Macadam Mambo in 2026.
