Tanukichi Releases Debut Album, ‘That Feeling,’ on Night On Earth Records

That Feeling is a 12-track compilation of singles Tanukichi released in 2025, paying homage to a hard-earned, 20-year career.

Tanukichi has spent the past 20 years redefining his style of drum and bass, infusing it with the four-on-the-floor energy of hardtek, hardcore, and hard techno. Credited for bridging the gap between Japanese and European rave scenes, his style pushes boundaries while bringing people together.

And that’s exactly what this Japanese DJ and producer is doing with his debut LP, That Feeling. Honoring his last two decades of work, this album compiles his 2025 releases into a single body of work on his own Night On Earth Records.

That Feeling showcases the best of Tanukichi. His hard work is evident, his technical precision is immaculate, and his identity is apparent. Through 12 tracks, Issei, as he’s widely known, weaves a tale of effervescent energy, commanding basslines, and heavy kick drums, all capped off with intricate precision and attention to detail. It’s high energy throughout, beginning with the driving “Drop It” to the festival staple, “One More Drop.” Both are perfect examples of his future drum and bass agenda.

Frequent Tanukichi collaborator Bob Ranks joins Issei on five tracks. The most notable are “That Rush” and “Rebel Faction,” both integral parts of the former artist’s viral Beats For Love 2025 set. These songs are also cited as cementing his new 4×4 style. They’re guaranteed to get your body moving.

That Feeling offers an insight into Tanukichi’s past, a look at his future, and the direction his music is taking. It’s a testament to his drive and his pristine production techniques, where he strives to keep his sound fresh and new.

That Feeling is out now via Spotify or your preferred platform. Keep yourself locked on Tanukichi’s socials to hear what he’s up to next.
