HYDRO GENERATOR

Hydro Generator is the emotional psychedelic trance project of DJ Toru, a seasoned artist from Japan whose career spans over two decades. Since his DJ debut in 1998 and live performance launch in 2003, Toru has ignited dancefloors around the world with his high-energy sets and deeply resonant soundscapes.

With more than 25 releases across acclaimed labels such as Matsuri Digital (Japan), 360Music (Mexico), and Ovnimoon Records (Chile), Hydro Generator’s music bridges cultures and continents—fusing emotionally charged melodies with driving rhythms that speak directly to the heart of the trance experience.

In 2009, Toru expanded his vision by founding Hinowa Recordings, a label focused on curating high-quality psychedelic experiences. His compilation “V.A. / Sunburst” showcased his refined taste and commitment to the global scene, featuring collaborations with artists from across the psychedelic spectrum.

Hydro Generator has brought his signature sound to major international festivals such as Texas Eclipse Festival 2024 (USA), Andes Eclipse Festival 2019 (Chile), and Metaverse Festival (Mexico). In Japan, his presence is equally powerful, performing at standout events like ONPAPSY and Mycelium Festival, where he continues to shape the local psychedelic landscape.

More than just a performer, Toru is a community builder—co-hosting label anniversary events and working with visionary collectives like CORE SYSTEM, further cementing his role as a key figure in the global psytrance movement.

Expect nothing less than full-power energy, intricate storytelling, and emotional depth in every Hydro Generator set—an invitation to lose yourself in the rhythm and rediscover the magic of trance.
