The Short Version
I'm Sho Nakashima — born in Kyoto, raised between cultures, now based in Tokyo with my wife and newborn. I've spent the last decade working across industries that have nothing obvious in common: recording studios, EV charging startups, creative businesses, guitar studios. It was never planned. But all of it connects.
I teach guitar, build content, run operations for creative businesses, and consult on EV strategy through MS CREATES. The thread through all of it is the same: helping people and ideas get heard.
Recotone is where it all comes together. Right now it's a brand, a newsletter, and a collection of services. Where it's headed is a physical space in Tokyo — a cultural cafe where music, recording, conversations, and human connection happen under one roof. That's the real goal.
