What makes your DJ sets unique?

When I am playing music, since 2010 I`ve been travelling several conntries and got inspired by many artists.

The music I play is an amalgamation of my Japanese roots, with music of cultures of all countries I have experienced and been part of during the last years.

When I am travelling to play back to back with different people all over the world, they influence and inspire me. when I play music I try to feel the energy of the people and places, and reflect it in my music.

You released your first single 'YUME' in 2014 and have developed your production skills, can you describe your sounds? And how do you get your ideas when creating a track?

My sounds are groovy and melodic, I can describe them sometimes as emotional.

When I make a track it just naturally comes to me. I try different rhythm beats, it all comes together by itself. The track develops itself while I experiment with sounds.

What does music mean to you?

Music is who I mean to be.

My passion.. My love.. My dream which always makes me motivated in life.

The possibilities remind us that life is only once and too short.. It means more than words.

What advice would you give to young aspiring DJ's & artists?

Believe in yourself.. Never give up, all artists have struggling times, but keep going and make original sounds or a set!

Find something different than what others do, and ENJOY!

Tell us about any events, news or releases you have coming up.

I have one event at one of my favourite clubs in Berlin that I'm really looking forward to at Wilde Renate. The atmosphere there is like I'm playing music for my friends. I

am also playing next month at Salon Zur Wilden renate in Berlin.

Any last words?

In Japan we would say "Arigatogozaimasu watashi no interview wo yondekurete". That means: "thank you very much this interview".
