Monolithic
Monolithic is the alias of Jun Torii, a Brooklyn-based producer and DJ originally from Japan. His sound moves between lo-fi house and breakbeat, defined by distorted TR-808/909 drums, warm pads, and emotive melodies.
Emerging through Bandcamp, Monolithic drew early attention from platforms like Houseum, Slav, Moskalus, EELF, and Majestic Casual. His productions have earned support from artists including Disclosure, Cinthie, and Lxury, connecting with both club crowds and home listeners.
Torii plays selectively, appearing at Brooklyn’s Mood Ring, Bossa Nova Civic Club, Good Room, Apollo Studios, and Public Records, with guest features on Newtown Radio and The Lot Radio that reflect his quiet consistency in the city’s underground house scene.
Alongside Monolithic, Torii explores different musical directions under a growing network of aliases, including Lounge 2 Function and Gecko Story. Most of his work is self-released through his imprint, Platonic Solids Inc., with additional contributions to labels such as Clipp.art, Lwlvls, and Mechanical.

Their rooms
One tick a night, on the one axis this page has — Aug 2023, where the listings start, to Jan 2027, the last night anybody has announced. The shaded end has not happened yet.

Once each: Jupiter Disco, 53 Scott Ave, Apollo Studio and Market Hotel. One of the 13 listings never named a room, and is not counted as one.
Who they play with
Counted from the bills themselves, over bills of twelve names or fewer. A pair's count includes a night that is announced and not yet played; where there is one, the row says when.
