Born out of Hong Kong’s underground party scene, cipher is a collective founded in 2017 that has been dedicated to exploring techno’s deep, ritualistic realms. From artists like DJ MARIA. and YSK to international heavyweights such as Amenthia Recordings and Konduku, cipher has built strong ties with Japan’s techno community—and now, they’re finally making their long-awaited debut at Tokyo’s legendary club WOMB. For this milestone event, cipher teams up with Ni hao ma?, the Tokyo-based underground party renowned for its wild, groovy energy. Ni hao ma? has carved out a unique place in Tokyo’s electronic landscape by bringing together cutting-edge artists and adventurous crowds, hosting events at iconic venues such as VENT in Tokyo and .TAG in Chengdu, and inviting artists like HECTOR OAKS and TAKAAKI ITOH. With their uncompromising vision of deep, hypnotic sound, they remain committed to bridging Tokyo’s local scene with the global underground movement. This powerful collaboration brings together the core residents of both parties alongside elite selectors representing the Hong Kong scene. Harnessing the city’s fast-paced, witty, and ever-evolving energy, amplified by the raw force of Tokyo’s underground, cipher and Ni hao ma? promise to create a one-of-a-kind night.
