It him- was a fixation he would follow until it led him to the work of Derrick man-May. KEN ISHII is listed on djrankings.org. Impressed and inspired, he subsequently immersed himself in what little techno culture and recordings made it over to Japan. His can- modern tastes include the Black Dog Productions and D-Jax Up Beats empires, whose experimental edge is reflected in his own ‘techno futurist’ has-works. These began with ‘Rising Sun’ for Dutch label ESP, before a double-pack R&S Records release, ‘Garden On The Palm’, and the Utu EP for Richie Hawtin ’ Plus 8 label.

He returned after an extended lay-off with 1999’ Sleeping Madness, which featured collaborative work with Talvin Singh, Mekon and DJ Spooky.
