【Introduction of Artist】
Ryu Nishikata ｜ Musician / Visual Artist
Once active in the music scene as bronbaba, the artist now, as DRUGONDRAGON, continues diverse projects such as solo creations, remixes, and cross-genre collaborations.
Drawing inspiration from noise, glitch aesthetics, and electronic music, he constructs a distinctive sonic world through deliberately crafted 'loose' progressions and seemingly impromptu treatments. In his remix works, he excels at deconstructing and reassembling original tracks, injecting a layer of 'deliberate misinterpretation' to transform them into entirely different forms.
In addition to music, Nishikata personally creates all the visual art for his released works. Projects such as "bronbaba / wwww" and "DRUGONDRAGON / dokka no dareka dareka no nanika" have been published as photo books, exploring the theme of 'reality akin to fiction.' Starting in 2025, he will incorporate AI into his creative process, shifting to explore 'fiction akin to reality,' and continuously investigate the unique landscape where visuals and sound intertwine.

【Artwork Introduction】
🁢 虛都
無數的看板上寫滿毫無意義的謊言，只是看起來像文字而已。
光影堆疊，卻不曾真正閃耀。
樣子看似是人類的形狀，但影子拉得再長，也到不了任何地方。

【Introduction of Distillery】
Invergordon 是現行仍在運作的蘇格蘭純穀物威士忌蒸餾廠中，位於高地產區裡的唯一一間，也是地理位置最北的一間，創立於 1959 年。酒廠所在地 Invergordon 本身就擁有曾為皇家海軍基地的天然深水港，又有知名的 Far North Line 鐵道通過，無論海路或陸路都十分便捷，加上來自 Loch Glass 的優異水源，使其成為興建大型穀物蒸餾廠的理想地點。現隸屬於懷特馬凱集團。
