Critical Sound japan 2026

Critical Sound comes to Japan as CIRCUS presents a two-city tour connecting one of drum & bass’s most influential independent labels with Japan’s underground music scene.

Founded in 2002 by Kasra, Critical Music has built a global reputation for its uncompromising sound, innovation and forward-thinking approach to electronic music.

Headlining both dates, Kasra brings the sound of Critical to Osaka and Tokyo, joined by Tokyo-based producer FONTS, whose recent release BINARY VOL.30 landed on Critical Music. Alongside a selection of local Japanese artists, the lineup brings together the sounds and talent of Japan’s underground with the label’s distinctive musical vision.
