About DIFFERENT SEASONS #6
Genres such as electronica, ambient, minimal, and drone have long overlapped, blurring and crossing their boundaries.
Within these fields, contrasting approaches—such as beat-driven and beatless structures, or digital and physical sound production—coexist as part of their expressive foundation.
This edition of DIFFERENT SEASONS brings together artists who traverse these territories, creating a space where genre, composition, and method intersect. Through this interplay, the event explores how musical expression emerges across boundaries.
STATEMENT
DIFFERENT SEASONS was initiated with the idea of making extreme forms of expression part of everyday life.
As we grow older, both creating and engaging with music can become more difficult. With more responsibilities comes less room for certain things to remain. Yet, our relationship with music should not be reduced to a binary of either “all” or “nothing.” There should be more ways to maintain a sustainable distance from music within one’s own life, and more opportunities for those whose priority is not solely music, yet whose expressions remain distinctive and highly refined.
Even at a small scale, DIFFERENT SEASONS aims to create events that carry a strong sense of context and individuality, where diverse forms of expression can coexist with integrity.
A live house/club with a café-bar, located a 1-minute walk from Shibasaki Station on the Keio Line. It also operates as a music shop selling cassette tapes, effectors and modular synthesisers.
The name 'mod' comes from the desire to 'modify' existing cultural and arts facilities such as live houses that rely on the old system, and to create a place where artists can gather and work easily. We want to continue to be an artist-first shop.
