#189 - SHIMA: Production Insights, Drum Racks, Music Journey & More

In this episode, SHIMA shares her journey from performing in a famous J-pop group at a young age, to producing bass-heavy tracks and playing major festivals like Coachella and Electric Forest. She dives into her unique production workflows using Ableton Live, favorite devices like Drum Rack, Bouncy Notes, and Resonators, and overcoming mixing issues. SHIMA also talks about her experience interning at Splice, helping build AI-powered sample tagging features.


SHIMA is a genre-blending producer, vocalist, and DJ with roots in both Tokyo and the U.S. After launching her career in a major J-pop girl group, she pivoted to producing her own bass-driven electronic music, pulling inspiration from indie, trap, and experimental scenes. With a background in computer engineering and a DIY production ethos, SHIMA brings both technical precision and creative edge to her sound. Her performances include major festivals like Coachella and Electric Forest, and her track “Karma” gained momentum after being played by Zeds Dead at Red Rocks. SHIMA is currently gearing up to release her debut album this fall.
