The origin of BLACK SMOKER's various unique parties, back for the first time in 2 years.

From art ExhibitionBLACK GALLERY, Jazz Nino, street interpretations and the possibilities of jazz, BLACK OPERA, a fusion of multi-faceted performances at Goethe-Institut Tokyo, taking part in the large-scale festival Berlin Atonal in Germany, the international avant-garde festival MAZEUM held in Kyoto, the black smoke group has expanded their field of expression in various ways.  They return with the core and long-running event series EL NINO.
2021 marks the 24th year of〈BLACK SMOKER RECORDS〉and is still standing strong without making compromises, keeping its rare and pure form.  The intangible phenomenon began in 1997 as THINK TANK the core, which gave birth to EL NINO.  Since moving its base to Contact in 2017, they have hosted the event every other year.  This evening will be wrapped in an atmosphere that no one can predict.
Musicians stamped with the〈BLACK SMOKER RECORDS〉have the ability to free the senses with improvisational and complex musical skills.  In August of last year,〈BLACK SMOKER RECORDS〉hosted a release special on DOMMUNE with YPY × Tatsuhisa Yamamoto and ZVIZMO (Atsushiro Ito & Tentenko).  They’ll be performing live for EL NINO.  The miracle that happens with the mixture of unbounded imagination and sharpened technology can be witnessed in each session.  OMSB dropped 2 EPs this year,「MONKEY」in May, and「HEAVEN」in August.  His latest work「HEAVEN」is packed with energy, thick electronics, chaotic, yet with restrained rap and absolute flow that creates the ultimate sound.  Compuma, a figure who appears at BLACK GALLERY and EL NINO from time to time, also plays a major role in projecting the imagination through his hallucinatory electronic science fiction.  Reggae and sound system music specialist OG millitant B, the psychedelic and nostalgic sound images of VIDEOTAPEMUSIC, the dark basslines of Bass Music/UKSounds by Lil Mofo, the chaos and cosmos of VJ rokapenis from〈BLACK SMOKER RECORDS〉, the sweet and dangerous experimentalism by the heavyweights THE LEFTY from THINKTANK will stir up the audience again this evening.
