80KIDZ is an electronic duo formed in January 2007. Starting out as a DJ unit, they began producing music after performing alongside a wide range of artists from Japan and abroad. Inspired by mid-to-late-2000s French/Euro electro and indie rock, their distinctive original tracks and remixes gained attention through social media, while their early 12-inch release, DISDRIVE EP (April 2008), quickly sold out.
Since then, 80KIDZ has released six full-length albums, along with remix compilations and collections of dance tracks, while performing at major festivals as both DJs and a live act. They have also produced and remixed for numerous artists, continuing to work across genres and scenes.
In August 2026, 80KIDZ released CUT OUT, their first full-length album in nearly five years. Featuring collaborations with a diverse range of guest artists alongside dance tracks that strongly reflect their musical roots, the 11-track album captures the many sides of the 80KIDZ sound.
