Phantom Grooves

Phantom Grooves is a DJ and curator operating at the intersection of sound, memory, and motion.

Co Creator of Heisei Bounce, Phantom Grooves translates the warmth and optimism of Showa and Heisei-era Japanese music into modern club language layered with Southern bounce energy, hip-hop bass.

His sets aren’t about nostalgia.
They’re about reconstruction for the new era of music.

Each mix is built like a scene: emotions captured in real time, grooves stretched and reshaped, familiar melodies reintroduced with new weight. Smooth when necessary. Aggressive when demanded. Always intentional.

Phantom Grooves treats sound the same way Takeover Studios treats design identity over trends, feeling over formulas. Whether in a crowded room or a late-night drive, the goal is the same: movement.

Heisei Bounce isn’t just a sound.
It’s a direction.

And Phantom Grooves is its origin.
