Powder is the stage name of Japanese DJ and music producer Moko Shibata, who emerged from the Tokyo underground electronic scene and rapidly gained international acclaim for her distinctive approach to dance music. She made her debut in the early 2010s and has been carving out a unique niche within the world of electronic music, known for her eclectic and genre-defying DJ sets as well as her production skills that fuse elements of house, techno, and a variety of global influences.
Shibata's ascent to the global stage was marked by a series of well-received releases, such as "Highly," which showcased her ability to craft hypnotic rhythms and textures. This was followed by the innovative extended play "New Tribe," where her vibrant sonic palette and intricate percussion further solidified her reputation as a forward-thinking producer.
