DJ Krush (Hideaki Ishii) was born in 1962 in Tokyo. After watching the film ‘Wild Style’ in the early ’80s, he was inspired, bought some turntables, and started to learn the art of turntablism. In 1987, he formed the KRUSH POSSE, which made numerous appearances as a group in late 1992 and gained him recognition by becoming the first DJ in Japan to perform with live musicians. He released his first album ‘Krush’ which stated his presence in the scene, and he has since released eight more. He has had recording contracts with Chance Records, Ninety Nine Records, Mo-Wax (he was the first Japanese artist to join them), Apollo and Sony/Columbia. He works internationally as a producer, remixer, DJ and recording artist, bringing the unique flavour of Japanese hip-hop to the world.

Saw him in Munich, and it rewired the auditory section of my brain for days...in a most pleasant way. No Munich date on this tour. :(

You can find most of his discography on Discogs, even the infamously hard to find Cage EP and TVO Remixes (this stuff is very expensive though). But some of his older stuff is still near-impossible to find!

I saw him in London earlier this year. I was lucky enough to meet him in person after the show as well. He was waiting outside for a taxi with an English translator and I asked for a picture together. He accepted, and I we chatted and said he might have a new album out by the end of the year. He was very polite and respectful, it was a delight talking to him. Stick around after the show and you might get lucky like me!
