DJ Krush, the legendary Japanese producer and DJ who helped shape the sound of the global trip-hop scene, takes over the decks at Arch Club for an electrifying DJ set, with special guests Moderator (Live) and Stiko, on Wednesday, September 24.
Hideaki Ishi – his real name – began DJing in the early ’80s, inspired by the film “Wild Style”, and has been evolving ever since, refusing to be confined by musical boxes or labels: trip-hop, ambient, experimental, hip-hop – they all feel limiting to him. What he creates is pure sound artistry, raw and unfiltered. And he does it with a deep sense of the underground – as he himself says: “The underground is more interesting. That’s where I belong.”
His debut album, “Krush” (1994), is now considered a landmark in the genre, and his journey has established him as one of the most influential beatmakers worldwide. With atmospheric beats, nature-inspired sounds, and samples drawn from soul and jazz, DJ Krush has crafted a sound entirely his own.
