The result is a cinematic style that has steadily captured attention across the global dance music landscape.\u00a0This release marks a defining step in her career, signaling the beginning of a broader international push as she builds toward an even larger global presence in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter ten years of shaping my sound and performing around the world, it feels like everything is finally aligning,\u201d she says. \u201cThis track reflects the direction I\u2019ve been working toward for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>YAMATOMAYA first broke through with her debut single <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/1D06pkQETyOpS2hRbIRzHp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">ALIVE<\/a>, which climbed to #1 on the iTunes Dance Chart and introduced her as a rising force in progressive house.<\/p>\n<p>She built her early following through performances across Japan\u2019s Kansai club scene before stepping onto the international stage. In 2019, she became the first Japanese female artist to perform at the Amsterdam Dance Event After Party, a milestone that helped cement her presence in Europe.\u00a0That same year, she delivered 16 international shows and appeared at six major festivals, marking her transition into a globally touring artist.<\/p>\n<p>Her career has since carried her onto some of the world\u2019s most recognized electronic music stages, including:\u00a0Ultra Europe, Creamfields Thailand, EDC China, Parookaville Festivaland S2O Festival.\u00a0In 2023, she stood out as the only Asian female DJ on the lineup at Ultra Europe and completed a six-country European tour spanning Croatia, Italy, Sweden, Spain, the Netherlands, and Albania.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-169165\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/YAMATOMAYA-UFO-Network-Press-Images-2-1920x1080.jpg\" alt=\"Japanese DJ YAMATOMAYA Unveils New Release - \u201cEndless\u201d on Black Hole Recordings\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" title=\"Japanese Dj Yamatomaya Unveils New Release - \u201cEndless\u201d On Black Hole Recordings | Ufo Network\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>Her momentum was further reflected in her ranking as #1 in Japan and #8 in Asia on the DJane Mag Asia Top 40 list.\u00a0Beyond the stage, YAMATOMAYA is building her own platform. In 2025, she launched AMO Recordings, a label dedicated to supporting emerging artists and pushing forward-thinking electronic music.<\/p>\n<p>Its debut showcases in Tokyo and Osaka drew industry attention and featured international collaborators, positioning AMO Recordings as a rising presence within Japan\u2019s electronic scene.\u00a0With Endless now released through Black Hole Recordings and additional unreleased material under consideration by major labels, YAMATOMAYA is entering a new phase defined by scale and ambition.<\/p>\n<p>Together with her team, she is preparing a global campaign that includes international festival appearances, club performances across Asia and Europe, brand partnerships, and a media series documenting her touring journey.\u00a0The project aims to spotlight not only her music, but also the growing influence of Asian artists within the global electronic music ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year is about taking everything further,\u201d she says. \u201cI want this music to reach as many people as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At its core, Endless captures a feeling many recognize but rarely hold onto for long, a moment so immersive it seems to stretch beyond time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s about being inside something you don\u2019t want to end,\u201d YAMATOMAYA explains. \u201cA connection, a phase, a feeling that keeps unfolding.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The track leans into emotional depth without melancholy, hovering instead in a suspended, almost weightless state. Built on a deep, driving bassline and guided by a gradually expanding, trance-inspired drop, it evolves without rushing toward resolution.\u00a0There\u2019s a quiet tension beneath its surface, energy that gathers patiently before finally breaking open. When the drop arrives, it acts as a release valve, letting everything hidden rise to the surface in a single, cathartic moment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">UFO Network brings you music news daily!
