Juju

Juju, real name 園田 淳 (Sonoda Jun), is a Japanese electronic music producer from Shōbara, Hiroshima. The artist began releasing electronic music in 2012, marking a significant departure from their earlier career as a jazz singer and J-pop artist that started in 1976. Juju has maintained consistent output across the electronic music scene with 13 releases spanning over a decade of production work.

Juju's electronic productions traverse multiple genres, anchored primarily in peak time and driving techno alongside house, deep house, and electronica. The artist releases music through respected imprints including Dekmantel, the not-for-profit label Needs, Candy Flip, and 44 LABEL GROUP. Their sound encompasses both the driving energy characteristic of peak time techno and the more subdued atmospheres found in deep house and electronica, demonstrating versatility across different tempos and dancefloor contexts.
