FACEBOOK | TWITTER | INSTAGRAM | SOUNDCLOUD | Spotify
Born and raised in the snowy city of Sapporo, Japan, and now residing in Austin, Texas, Qrion takes inspiration from the robust environments at her whim. Melancholic, wistful, and dancefloor-minded, Qrion’s sound is multi-layered in its approach. Ranging from supple, soft exploratory works to driving house, and soul-sampling groovers, her touch is light and playful – evoking memories and feelings through sound. From her long-running relationship with Anjunadeep to her remixes for the likes of Booka Shade, Röyksopp, CRi, and more, her productions have drawn acclaim across dancefloors globally.
There’s a reason why she was named on Forbes Japan’s 30 Under 30 list: since the inception of her musical career, Qrion has become a staple on revered labels such as Anjunadeep, Last Night On Earth, Mad Decent, Ultra Music, and more. Her one-of-a-kind style has garnered support from BBC Radio 1’s Danny Howard, and Pete Tong, along with industry figures Anna Lunoe, Mall Grab, Todd Edwards, and Lane 8.
Recognized by Spotify’s EQUAL Program with a billboard in New York City’s Times Square, Qrion demonstrated her meteoric rise throughout 2021: Qrion released her debut full-length record I Hope It Lasts Forever via Anjunadeep, her most breathtaking work to date. Qrion was awarded the title of DJ Mag’s 2021 Future Star and was included in Billboard’s 20 Best Dance Albums in 2021. She has since released original productions most notably her her collaborative single “High & Dry” with Sasha via Last Night On Earth and “20ms” a collaboration with Spencer Brown via diviine records.
Since the start of her career, Qrion has supported leading acts such as Meduza, Romy, Ben Böhmer, Lane 8, and Porter Robinson. Qrion set out on her first I Miss Crying In The Club tour, hitting 18 cities across North America in the Spring of 2023. Currently, she is working on her second album set to release on Anjunadeep with its lead single “Miyanosawa”
