山西太原的 DJ 兼制作人 444theGod 痴迷于高能量的俱乐部之声。他在上海独立厂牌 Genome6.66Mbp 意外发布的首张专辑《El Poema Inacabado》之中，以氛围感抚慰人心。他随即于 Shy People 携 EP《Oxygen Activation》迅速回归 Bass 音乐阵营。

EP前三首为节奏流畅、细节丰富的舞池利器。444theGod 巧妙糅合多种当代俱乐部与低音音乐元素，进一步拓展硬派音乐的表达边界。末曲“Overcast Sky?”以低回婉转且繁复精妙的声音设计，编排出一场抽象而紧张的电影场景。深化 EP 暗色情绪的同时，也悄然揭示了他下一阶段音乐探索的序章。

REPRESENTATION

DJ and producer 444theGod, hailing from Taiyuan, Shanxi, is deeply devoted to high-energy club sounds. His debut album, El Poema Inacabado, released unexpectedly via Shanghai’s independent label Genome6.66Mbp, soothes the soul with atmospheric warmth. He quickly returned to the Bass music realm with the EP Oxygen Activation, released through Shy People.

The first three tracks of the EP are fluid, intricately detailed dancefloor weapons. Skillfully blending elements of contemporary club and Bass music, 444theGod further expands the expressive boundaries of Hard Drum sound. The closing track, “Overcast Sky?”, employs a low, winding, and intricately layered sound design, composing an abstract yet intense cinematic scene. While deepening the EP’s dark tone, it quietly marks the prelude to his next chapter of musical exploration.


山西省太原出身のDJ兼プロデューサー444theGodは、高エネルギーのクラブサウンドに強い情熱を注いでいます。上海のインディーレーベルGenome6.66Mbpから突如リリースされたデビューアルバム『El Poema Inacabado』では、雰囲気のある音で心を癒やします。その後すぐにShy PeopleからEP『Oxygen Activation』を発表し、Bass musicの領域へと回帰しました。

EPの最初の3曲は、流れるようで細部まで緻密に作り込まれたダンスフロア向けの強力な武器です。444theGodは、現代のクラブミュージックとベースミュージックの要素を巧みに融合させ、ハードサウンドの表現の可能性をさらに広げています。ラストトラック「Overcast Sky?」では、低く旋回する複雑で精巧なサウンドデザインを駆使し、抽象的で緊張感のある映画的シーンを描き出します。この曲はEPのダークなムードを一層深めると同時に、彼の次なる音楽探求の序章を静かに告げています。

444theGod

从解构美学到极端疯狂的失真锐利之声，或是低音震颤、接近失控的丛林回响，再加上拉美与南非的热舞律动——作为 DJ 的 444theGod 始终保持谦逊、兼容并收的态度，将俱乐部场景中的音乐元素无边界地融合在一起。这种折衷主义的美学追求同样体现在他的日常音乐创作中。

他的作品收录在多个国内外厂牌发行的音乐合辑中。例如，香港厂牌 Absurd Trax《lain os is online vol.2: club cyberia》、厄瓜多尔厂牌 C.T.M《World Wild Compilation: Sounds Across Continents》，以及北京派对组织/厂牌似福绒《SAFEROOM 01》。

444theGod 也与国内嘻哈音乐人有过合作，例如与 Double Zhuo 合作的单曲《冒险王》，以及参与 popogo&刀脚的混音专辑《Passport》等。2024年冬季，他在上海厂牌 Genome6.66Mbp 发行的首张专辑《El Poema Inacabado》，展现了他在高能量俱乐部音乐之外截然不同的音乐面貌。该专辑以 “未完成的诗歌” 为概念，以轻柔的钢琴声和合成器为主要音色，打造了一场沉浸于细腻思绪的听觉体验。2025年开头他于 Shy People 厂牌携 EP《Oxygen Activation》迅速回归 Bass 音乐阵营。

作为多重身份的音乐人，444theGod 还活跃于多个音乐团体中，包括制作人组织 DawlessTeahouse Artist Group、新兴派对组织 Hentai Hammer，以及北京 Jungle 音乐组织 P.J.E.T. (Peking Jungle Expedition Team)。

About Artist

From Deconstructed aesthetics to sharp, distorted madness, and from bass-heavy, near-chaotic Jungle echoes to the infectious rhythms of Latin American and South African dance music—444theGod approaches DJing with humility and an inclusive mindset, seamlessly blending diverse elements of club music without boundaries. This eclectic aesthetic pursuit is equally reflected in his everyday music production.

His work has been featured in various compilations released by labels both domestic and international. Notable examples include lain os is online vol.2: club cyberia by Hong Kong’s Absurd Trax, World Wild Compilation: Sounds Across Continents by Ecuador’s C.T.M, and SAFEROOM 01 by Beijing-based party collective/label Saferoom.

444theGod has also collaborated with Chinese Hip-hop artists, including the single “Adventurer King” with Double Zhuo and contributions to popogo&刀脚’s remix album Passport. In the winter of 2024, he released his debut album El Poema Inacabado via Shanghai label Genome6.66Mbp, showcasing a completely different musical identity beyond high-energy club sounds. Conceived around the idea of an ‘unfinished poem,’ the album is built upon soft piano melodies and synth textures, delivering an immersive and introspective auditory experience. At the beginning of 2025, he made a swift return to the Bass music scene with the EP Oxygen Activation, released through Shy People.

As a multifaceted artist, 444theGod is also an active member of several music collectives, including the producer group DawlessTeahouse Artist Group, emerging party collective Hentai Hammer, and Beijing’s Jungle music crew P.J.E.T. (Peking Jungle Expedition Team).


デコンストラクション美学から、鋭く歪んだ狂気のサウンド、さらに低音が震え、制御不能に近いジャングルの響きまで——ラテンアメリカや南アフリカのダンスリズムも取り入れながら、DJである444theGodは常に謙虚で包括的な姿勢を持ち、クラブミュージックのあらゆる要素をボーダーレスに融合しています。この折衷主義的な美学の追求は、彼の日常的な音楽制作にも反映されています。

彼の作品は、国内外のさまざまなレーベルによるコンピレーションアルバムに収録されています。たとえば、香港のレーベル Absurd Trax の『lain os is online vol.2: club cyberia』、エクアドルのレーベル C.T.M の『World Wild Compilation: Sounds Across Continents』、そして北京のパーティーコレクティブ/レーベル似福绒 (Saferoom) の『SAFEROOM 01』などがあります。

また、444theGodは中国のヒップホップアーティストともコラボレーションを行っています。Double Zhuo とのシングル 『冒険王』 や、popogo＆刀脚のリミックスアルバム『Passport』に参加するなど、その活動は幅広いです。2024年冬には、上海のレーベル Genome6.66Mbp からデビューアルバム 『El Poema Inacabado』 をリリースし、高エネルギーなクラブミュージックとは一線を画す新たな音楽的側面を披露しました。このアルバムは「未完成の詩」をコンセプトに掲げ、優しいピアノの旋律とシンセサウンドを中心に構成され、繊細な思考に浸る没入感あふれるリスニング体験を提供しています。2025年の初めに、彼はShy PeopleレーベルからEP『Oxygen Activation』をリリースし、素早くベースミュージックのシーンに復帰した。

多面的なアーティストである444theGodは、複数の音楽集団にも所属しています。プロデューサーグループ DawlessTeahouse Artist Group、新興パーティーコレクティブ Hentai Hammer、そして北京のジャングルミュージック集団 P.J.E.T. (Peking Jungle Expedition Team) など、その活動範囲はさらに広がりを見せています。

长沙伢子，“播放一些喜欢的音乐。”

五周岁的 Shy People 慢慢了解到自己的性格 —— 内向又开朗活泼，温和又透露着怪异的一面。人总是复杂的不是？喜欢安静的城市也偏爱热闹的大自然；大肆追赶有趣的新鲜声音，同时迷恋舞池里持续积攒的能量。

为了得到一次从未有过的自画像，Shy People 在广袤的网络宇宙中，搜寻到一个被时间遗忘的小村庄。这里有位名叫 Tego 的年轻魔法师，他拥有可以随心所欲地操控颜色的独特才能。

Tego 对周围的色调和细微变化充满好奇。就像 Shy People 一样，他总在冒险 —— 为了寻找新的色调，他借助一本古老的魔法书在过去与未来之间游走，探索颜色的奥秘。Tego 的最终目标是找到传说中的“灵魂之色”，一种神秘的色彩，传说它能够揭示宇宙的最深真理。

这次，Tego 创造了两个角色，既对应 Shy People 的多元性情，也对应北京和成都这两个锐舞城市的可爱模样。不知道你怎么看呢？借此机会，我们抓住这位魔法师背后的 真正创世主 Tego Gratos，让他在现实宇宙的巴黎偏心地挑出20张心爱之作， 并回答了几个好奇的问题。

At the age of five, Shy People gradually comes to understand their personality—introverted yet cheerful, gentle yet with a quirky side. People are always complex, aren’t they? They enjoy quiet cities while also loving the lively outdoors; they chase after intriguing new sounds while being captivated by the energy that builds up on the dance floor.

In search of an unprecedented self-portrait, Shy People discovers small village that is forgotten by time in the vast universe of the internet. There, they meet a young magician named Tego, who possesses the unique talent to manipulate colors at will.

Tego has always been fascinated by the shades and nuances around him. Like Shy People, he is always on an adventure—navigating between the past and future with the help of an ancient grimoire to explore the mysteries of color. Tego’s ultimate goal is to find the legendary “Color of the Soul,” a mystical hue that, according to legend, can reveal the deepest truths of the universe.

Shy People: 你是怎么喜欢上锐舞音乐的？

Tego Gratos: 我在2001年首次参加了一个锐舞派对，那是一个在巴黎郊区的大棚子里举行的大型地下派对。作为一名青少年，这次经历给我留下了深刻的印象，从那以后我立刻沉迷于 Hard techno 和 Hardcore 音乐。后来就继续探索和发现各种不同的电子音乐风格。

Shy People: How did you come to like Rave music?

Tego Gratos: I went to my first rave party in 2001, a big underground party in a large shed in a Paris suburb. As a young teenager, it made a big impression on me and I immediately dived into Hard Techno and Hardcore music after that. Later I kept exploring and discovering various electronic music styles.

有哪些难忘的派对经历给你留下了深刻的印象？

我有很多和朋友在法国风景漂亮的各个地方派对的美好回忆。我们有一些传统的音响系统派对，叫做 Multison 或 Teknival，在法国乡村里重建一个小型的 Techno 城市，往往持续几天。我一直很喜欢这些。不过，最让我难忘的派对之一是在 Heretik 音响系统成立20周年时举行的，地点是巴黎传奇的奥林匹亚音乐厅。看到地下 Techno 文化与歌手 Edith Piaf 和 Charles Aznavour 这样的艺术家那样出现在同一个舞台上，是一个美妙的时刻。

What memorable party experiences have left a strong impression on you?

I have a lot of great memories of partying with friends in beautiful places in France. We have these traditional sound-systems gatherings called Multison or Teknival where we recreate a small techno city in the French countryside for a few days. I've always loved these. But one of my most memorable parties was happening for the 20th anniversary of the Heretik soundsystem and it took place at the Olympia, a legendary concert hall in Paris. It was a beautiful moment seeing underground techno culture on the same stage that saw people like Edith Piaf and Charles Aznavour.

你现在住在巴黎吗？

是的，我自出生以来就一直住在巴黎，我爱这座城市及其灵魂。关于巴黎有很多成见，但如果你走出旅游圈，可能会发现充满活力的地下文化。我现在不常参加派对，但仍然关注这个场景，并会偶尔去看看我最喜欢的 DJ 和音响系统。

Are you currently living in Paris?

Yeah, I've been living in Paris since I was born, I love this city and its soul. There are a lot of preconceived ideas about Paris but if you step out of the tourist circuit you might find a vibrant underground culture. I don't party as often now but I still keep an eye on the scene and punctually pop over for my favorite DJs and sound systems.

你最喜欢的音乐有哪些？可以推荐一下吗？

虽然我听很多不同风格的音乐，但我心中永远最爱的 DJ 还是我第一次在一个小型地下狂欢派对上看到的 —— Manu le malin，也叫 The Driver。我特别喜欢他混上了那些慢节奏的重型 Hardcore Techno 的时候。

What are your favorite music? Can you recommend some personal choices?

While I listen to many different music styles, I think my all-time favorite Dj is still one of the first Djs I saw live in a small underground rave. It's Manu le malin aka The Driver. I especially love it when he mixes some slow-tempo heavy Hardcore Techno.

你的设计中有很多卡通元素。你童年时哪些卡通给你留下了最深的印象？

我最喜欢的是找到一些我曾经忘记的卡通，其带来的怀旧感是我创作的核心。我喜欢把那段记忆抽离出原有的背景，以不同的方式使用它，偏离它最初的目的。这与音乐中的采样原则非常相似。

Your designs have many cartoon elements. What cartoons left the deepest impression on you during your childhood?

What I like the most is finding a cartoon that I had forgotten about, the nostalgic feeling it brings is at the center of my work. Then I like to take that piece of memory and pull it out of its context to use it in a different way and deflect its initial purpose. It's very close to the sample principle in music.

除了卡通，还有什么影响了你的设计？街头涂鸦对吧？

当然，涂鸦文化、滑板/单板文化、Techno/锐舞文化、文身文化，以及许多80年代和90年代的亚文化，另外还有达达主义、超现实主义、波普艺术和迷幻艺术等艺术运动对我影响很大。

Besides cartoons, what else has influenced your design? Street graffiti, right?

Yes of course graffiti culture, skate/snowboard culture, techno/rave culture, tattoo culture, and many other 80's/90's subcultures but also artistic movements like Dadaism, surrealism, pop art, or psychedelic art influenced me a lot.

从你的设计中可以看出，你对90年代的狂欢文化有一种偏爱。是什么吸引你关注那个时代的视觉？

我也不太确定，感觉就像找到了一双完美合脚的鞋子。那种粗犷与乐趣的结合，多元文化的氛围，创造力的迸发，很多东西与我的个性产生共鸣，我觉得自己很幸运，能够在那个合适的时刻体验这种文化。

From your designs, it seems you have a fondness for 90s rave culture. What draws you to the visuals of that era?

I don't know exactly, it's like finding the right shoes that fit perfectly your foot. The mix of roughness and fun, multiculturalism, the creativity. A lot of things resonate with my personality and I feel incredibly lucky for living at the right time to experience this culture.

你选择匿名的原因是什么？或者说，Tego Gratos 对你来说扮演着什么角色？

我觉得这样更自在，主要是它带来的创作自由是最重要的。此外，这就像戴上一个面具，让我的个性发生一点变化，能够让我更尽情地狂欢，哈哈。不过，这也是受到了像涂鸦和电子音乐等亚文化的影响，在这些文化中，艺术家很少使用自己的真实名字。

What is the reason for choosing anonymity? In other words, what role does Tego Gratos play for you?

I find it more comfortable for many reasons, mostly the freedom of creation it allows is the most important. Also, it's like putting a mask on, it makes a little switch in personality and allows you to party even harder haha. But it's also a part of the subcultures that influenced me like graffiti and techno music where it's rare to find an artist using its real name.

笑死，Ciel 今日公布自己要发本年度第四份出品。有哪位像咱 Ciel 姐这样认真勤奋，而且作品还能常期霸榜的吗？
