Kotoe

Kotoe makes you want to move — think
disco, feel acid, breathe tropicali. These genres and tempos
reflect her beginnings playing booty-body shake with Voodoo
Hop to where she is right now: at the centre of the European
dance riot with its clubs of deep beats, mood-encrusted vibes,
and nooks and crannies where you can play with anything from
lovers to politics between moments inside the music. In this
world, Kotoe forged a career of being unafraid to challenge
what many came to expect from the Berlin club scene, making
her synonymous with dancers looking for more surprise, more
genre-bending, and more movement. The latter comes
especially naturally for this Japanese Brazilian gypsy: From the
Machi's of Tokyo, the Rua's of Rio, and the Strasse's of Berlin,
you can hear her footsteps carved into her sound — blooming
with life, stories, and emotion.
