Deploying metallic synths and sharp rhythms, Hokoda, aka Johan Clavier, offers an experience mixing his influences through an electrifying raw psychedelic techno.
Drawing inspiration from the raw power of industrial music, the infectious rhythms of minimal, and the pulsating energy of progressive, he crafts an innovative sound playing with the codes between techno and dark prog, to provide a dancefloor-driven experience.
On stage, he delivers an expressive performance, sharing his ultra-communicative energy and his effervescence, under the blows of this heavy technoid trance music.
He joins the team ADN Groove in 2021.
Besides, he participates in the management of Multiversal Records, a label and event organizer in Lyon, which provides psytrance music and its culture overall. (Events, music releases, workshops...)
The project in its current form was born in 2019, with an appearance on Universal Tribe Records in early 2020 featuring the genesis of Microkod, before evolving into Hokoda.
His debut EP Anima out on May 2022, presents his hybrid style of technoid dark prog.
Hokoda, the final form of Microkod, makes a comeback with his second EP Fusion Cycle in 2023, alongside several single releases.
