Takahide Higuchi, better known as *Foodman*, is a Japanese footwork artist hailing from Yokohama, Japan. With his unique sound and energetic beats, he has gained recognition in the music industry. His music combines elements of footwork, experimental electronic, and traditional Japanese sounds.
One interesting fact about Foodman is that his stage name, *Shokuhin Maturi*, translates to "Food Festival" in Japanese. This reflects his playful and eclectic approach to music production.
If you enjoy artists such as *Toiret Status*, *Jana Rush*, or *Jlin*, then Foodman's music will surely captivate your ears. His style resonates with fans of footwork legends like *RP Boo* and *DJ Rashad*. Additionally, if you appreciate the innovative sounds of artists like *Giant Claw* or the experimental vibes of *Laurel Halo*, Foodman's music will be right up your alley.

Foodman is Takahide Higuchi, from Nagoya, in central Japan. ‘Yasuragi Land’ is his first release for Hyperdub, alive with Footwork-inspired musical freedom and the sense that everything is a rhythm.

‘Yasuragi Land’ is breezy and refined; hyper-rhythmic music, made with a few simple tools, dances around your head. ‘Yasuragi’ and ‘Parking Area’ feel like gently deconstructed acoustic jazz, while ‘Ari Ari’ is deep house splattered with a cartoonish hiccup. ‘Hoshikzu Tenboudai’ and ‘Shiboritate’ bounce around the speakers like trance-inducing polyrhythmic updates of the New York minimalists.

‘Food Court’ is busy with mechanical rhythm and naive melodies, ‘Gallery Café’ pairs a cute wooden flute melody with micro edited wooden drums, ‘Michi No Eki’ is like a digital take on Magma's complex rock, and ‘Sanbashi’ indirectly approximates 80s R&amp;B. The album finishes with ‘Misyuku’, its treated guitar lick sounding like it was stolen from Daft Punk, woven into dense interlacing drums.
