This Friday, POTENT welcomes Tokyo’s DJ Mari Sakurai, a Techno artist known for pushing boundaries with her experimental and high-energy sets. Her music weaves speed, intensity, and unexpected twists, keeping the dance floor in constant motion while transforming its momentum with sudden shifts. Active across Tokyo and the international electronic scene, Mari has performed at Berghain, Boiler Room, Red Bull Music Festival, MUTEK.JP, and more, and is a resident DJ for Tokyo’s Mitsuki After Life parties. She also curates events like KRUE and SLICK, creating inclusive spaces that blur gender, nationality, and genre, and participates in Tokyo’s Protest Rave, using dance as a form of freedom and resistance. Known for combining high-BPM drive with nuanced control, Mari creates a dynamic, constantly evolving sonic experience. On Friday, she brings this sharp energy and spirit of freedom to TENT, alongside local talents Fat-K, Chace, and DJ Yann, promising a night of deep, liberating beats.
