01 / ABOUT

DON'T FOLLOW,
DON'T BOW,
FILL IT ALL

moja is a Tokyo duo whose music must be experienced and felt — not only with the ears, but with the eyes and the whole body.

Masumi’s fiercely creative drums collide with Haru’s bass-and-voice command center, filling every space without a guitar or any other instrument. Formed in 2007, moja made its New York debut at CMJ that same year and placed third at the 2008 Global Battle of the Bands World Championship. The duo has since performed in 24 countries across Asia, Europe and North America.

EUROPE TOUR REVIEW / PULA, CROATIA

Monteparadiso · June 18, 2026

“THAT WONDERFUL,
WONDERFUL NOISE.”

“A noise attack where voice, bass guitar and drums are used as weapons.”

The report describes moja as a band that must be experienced beyond words: Haru’s three-amp bass command center leaves no space unfilled, while Masumi’s unpredictable, imaginative drumming turns the performance into a physical, ecstatic event.
