   About KEN ISHII
CLICK HERE to visit kenishii.com


Ken Ishii debuted on a legendary Belgian techno label, R & S Records, in 1993. In that year he straight won No.1 on the UK’s NME magazine’s techno chart, which led him to worldwide recognition. In 1995, the highly praised album “Jelly Tones” (R & S / Sony Japan) was released. In the following year, the video for the single “Extra” from this album (directed by Koji Morimoto, the animator of the worldwide hit cartoon, “Akira”) won MTV's "Dance Video of the Year".

Since then, Ken has been regarded internationally as one of the Japanese pioneers who can create world class electronic sounds. In 1998, he produced the official theme song for the winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan and it was played in more than 70 countries around the world. Then in 2000, Ken was interviewed and was on the cover of Newsweek magazine, featured as a symbol of the Japanese new culture. This was acclaimed as a great undertaking by a dance/electronic music artist.

He also produces music for films, such as doing the theme song and soundtrack for the monster hit Japanese film “Whiteout” in 2000, which led him to be nominated in Japanese Academy Awards. He expands his boundary to games as well. Rez, the game Ken contributed his exclusive tracks to, became a cult hit. In 2005, he reached a major achievement in being in charge of the music and designing an exclusive 12.2 surround sound system for the Seto-Nihon Pavilion, enforced by the Japanese Government, at World Expo in Aichi, Japan.

These days, Ken spends 2/3 of his time on travelling in Europe, Asia, North/South America DJ'ing and working as a true international artist/DJ. In 2004, he was awarded the Best Techno DJ at “Dance Music Awards” in Ibiza, proving himself to be one of the world’s most talented DJ's in the scene as well. He often plays at mega dance festivals, such as Monegros (Spain), WIRE (Japan) and more. His unique blend always drives crowd into frenzy.

Ken set up his own label, 70 Drums, in 2002 starting off with an album "Future In Light". His latest album is "SUNRISER" in 2006 and he again shows in it his futuristic vision and his deep love in his musical root, early Detroit techno.

In 2009, a double remix album of "SUNRISER", titled "Daybreak Reprise - SUNRISER Remixed", is set to be digitally released worldwide in the autumn, along with his brand new mix album, "WARRIOR ON THE DECKS - PLAY, PAUSE AND PLAY 2 -" on Sublime Records.

Fatima Hajji Summer Review:

http://img56.imageshack.us/img56/4157/summereview09.jpg

Only two dj's have performed at the three most important Electronic music festivals (Monegros, Electrosonic and Aquasella), being Fatima one of them. She has spend the summer making clubbers dance all over Spain. And now, many people are aware that Hajji means trae Hard Techno and exhausting sesions.

Solamente dos Dj's han conseguido estar este año en los tres festivales de referencia en lo que a Electrónica se refiere (Monegros, Electrosonic y Aquasella, así que Fátima se ha pasado el verano haciendo bailar a clubbers de toda España, ahora son muchos más los que saben que Hajji es sinónimo del Hard Techno más duro y las noches más agotadoras.

お忙しい所失礼します。

突然ですが、僕が作ったSpacyJazzというでもトラックの、

感想を第一印象程度でも良いので聞かせていただけないでしょうか?

声も一回しか録音しておりませんし、構成もまだ全然やっていませんが、

こういう雰囲気のBeatを今後作るべきかどうか、参考にしたいのです。

自分ではこの曲に関しては客観的に判断しにくいので、

どうかブログの方にでも簡単にでもご感想を頂けると嬉しいです。

それでは失礼いたします。
