Dejima

Dejima is the psychedelic-indie-rock brainchild of 20-year-old Kaveh Hodjat. A true multi-hyphenate, Dejima’s artistry holds the breadth of his passions, as he enhances his masterful songwriting with striking visuals and world-building short films. This California native channels an unbridled essence of play into his meticulous arrangements, curating an eclectic soundscape that is bound to make any listener feel as though a movie is playing out in their own mind. Releasing music since 2021, Dejima currently has 4.9M streams on his single,“ Cool It” and has received support from Spotify’s Fresh Finds, Modern Psychedelia and Late Night Vibes.

While almost every sound is written, arranged, recorded, and produced by Dejima, the project would not exist without the rich creative community that he collaborates with on the daily. With an ever changing sound ranging from airy, soft rock romance to frenetic jangle pop polyphony, Dejima never fails to keep listeners engaged in his sweepingly cinematic discography.
