Contagious Orgasm is a long-running experimental project from Yokohama, Japan, founded by Hiroshi Hashimoto in 1987. Known for pushing the boundaries of sound, Hashimoto explores industrial, noise, ambient, and electro-acoustic textures, often blending field recordings with abstract electronics and dark atmospheres. Over decades of prolific output and international collaborations, Contagious Orgasm has earned a respected place in the global underground scene, performing at festivals and releasing numerous albums that challenge and expand the definitions of sound art and experimental music.
