Information
He started on the music at the age of 21 as a part of the hardcore band Omnibus climbing the top charts positions on the famous Tower records store Japan. During his period of club manager in Japan, he had direct contact with electronic top artists such as Radio Slave, Len Faki, Camea, DJ KRUSH, A Guy Called Gerlad or Guy Gerber, being the first one to book them to play in Osaka. At this time he already knew that his future wasn’t behind the curtain, so he started his own music project mixing all the influences of his natal Osaka and the european techno that he was trying to import to his club.
In 2009 he became an important part of the Madberlin team working on the Asia area, taking care of the parties and distribution on this continent. He signed the 2nd reference of Madberlin Label with his first album "Radically nu breed’s cre8" where he mixed dark techno rhythms & textures with some crazy 2step & dubstep arrangement concepts, finding a very unique style.
2012 is the year of birth of his own label Cold Dark, a place where he can develop his very own concept of electronic music.
In 2016 he founded "Ahito" project, consisting of 6 musicians.
His live set is a clear reflection of the controlled kaos of the mixture between techno beats and dark textures, always with the deep and powerful signature that defines his music.
