TOTEM TRAXX is a Japanese indie label founded by DO SHOCK BOOZE aka Yoichi Hayashi in 2010,
based on the indoor rave party <TOTEM> held in Tokyo in the early 2000s.
TOTEM may be a form of supernatural worship in which each group or person experiences the supernatural relationship
between technology and specific music, nature, flora and fauna, and wishes to receive special powers and blessings.
Now we embark on a journey to discover new energies yet to be discovered, to allow for all BPMs,
to encounter electronic tribal dance, deep techno, trance flavors and contemporary music.
TOTEM TRAXXは、東京都内で2000年代初頭に開催されていた屋内レイブパーティ＜TOTEM＞を発端に、
2010年にDO SHOCK BOOZE aka Yoichi Hayashiが立ち上げた日本のインディーレーベル。
TOTEMとは、それぞれの集団や人間が特定の音楽、大自然、動植物たちとテクノロジーが、超自然的関係で結ばれていることを体験し、
特別な力と加護を授かりたいという超自然崇拝なのかもしれない。
今、私たちはすべてのBPMを許容し、電子トライバルダンスとディープテクノ、現代音楽の邂逅を果たすため、まだ見ぬ新エネルギーを見出す旅へ出る。
