their own biography
the whole biography
DJ Kibachan (Hiromi Kiba) is a New York-based DJ, interdisciplinary artist, and dancer. Growing up in the small fishing town of Toba, Japan, constantly hitting gigs and spinning records from an early age while obsessed with fashion styling, that background shapes everything they do today. Sound is deeply rooted in decades of underground club culture and vinyl record collecting, bridging the tactile memory of Japanese folk traditions with the raw immediacy of New York's nightlife to craft genre-defying, borderless sound sets guided by care, wellness, and community. Holding monthly residencies at Nightmoves and The Last Call—alongside previous residencies at Tokyo Record Bar, Jupiter Disco, and Ace Hotel Brooklyn—they’re known for rare wave and thrilling sonic journeys. Steering clear of standard high-energy club tracks, these residencies lean into carefully curated listening sessions—shifting fluidly from avant-garde electronics to traditional rhythms depending on the room. As an active poet, rapper, and performance artist, Kibachan has brought work to spots like the Noguchi Museum, Loisaida Center, and The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts. Moving easily between sound, movement, and text, the work connects New York's art and nightlife scenes, always pushing the edges of art and music. Fresh off finishing her biographical essay, Ningen Mirror Ball (Human Imperfection), Kibachan is now working on her very first album, kairi, composing their spoken word/rap, and weaving found sound in Ableton Live 12.Recently at The Last Call, Nightmoves · often with DJ Mihoko, Justin Strauss, Jerome Derradji, none of them here that night
