fabric Originals presents Sho, a five track EP of introspective, transcendent electronics from Japanese techno icon DJ Nobu. Inspired by the Buddhist Brahmaviharas - joy, compassion, loving-kindness and equanimity - Sho unfolds as a meditative, emotional journey rooted in Nobu’s experiences of Tokyo, mindfulness and inner clarity. From kinetic renewal to serene minimalism, the EP channels presence, acceptance and the simple truth that breathing itself is living. Each track on ‘Sho’ marks a step in an emotional and spiritual journey, channelling the foundational virtues of the Brahmaviharas, which are the four ‘Sublime States’ of Buddhist practice: ‘Mudita’ (joy), ‘Karu?a’ (compassion), ‘Metta’ (loving-kindness), and ‘Upekkha’ (equanimity). Together these principles form a path towards an open, boundless heart, which is mirrored in the EP’s unfolding sonic narrative. “In recent years I became overly sensitive to my surroundings and society, finding myself strongly affected by every daily occurrence. It was during this time that I discovered meditation. And beyond that lay Buddhism. Through this, my sensibilities became able to express themselves more naturally. I decided to portray my feelings, and the scenery in Tokyo, conveying what I was experiencing in real-time, as music. The EP title ‘Sho’ denotes views, thoughts, and actions aligned with Buddhist truth, and encapsulates my striving for presence, clarity, and acceptance. It also represents the conscious, mindful understanding that simply breathing is living.” DJ Nobu
