DJ / Producer. born in Japan,  based in Berlin and Niigata, Japan.  Resident DJ - GoldenGate Berlin

Having grown up in a musical environment from an early age, Neco started developing a real relationship with music from high school, where she honed her skills to become a professional dancer in her hometown of Niigata, Japan. She later moved onto become one of the leading event organisers in the city, where she eventually made her mark as a DJ at the well-known Club 88. Later, after travelling back and forth between Europe and South America, she moved to Berlin in 2010 and became a resident DJ at Golden Gate, where she still plays regularly. Since then, she has performed in many of Berlin’s leading clubs, including Kater Holzig, Sisyphos, Renate, about blank, and many more. She also plays at various festivals around the world, including Fusion Festival in Germany, Garbicz Festival in Poland, Subsonic Festival in Australia, and several festivals in Denmark, Switzerland, Central America, Cyprus, Fuji and Asia.
Besides regular monthly gigs at Golden Gate, she hosts the occaisonal 14-hour after hour parties during the long winters in Berlin, and in 2014 she even started her own outdoor event Moles Open Air back home in Niigata.
Her playing style is cheerful and fairy, whilst also presenting a multitude of styles varying between dub, minimal house, techno, afro beat, jazz, funk, hip-hop, nu-disco and much more.


幼少期から音楽と密接な環境で育ち、高校時代にダンサーとしての活動を開始する。
後に、地元新潟をベースにオーガナイザーとしてイベントを手掛けるようになり、新潟市の”88”を拠点にDJ活動を開始させる。渡欧を幾度と繰り返し、2010年よりベルリンへと活動拠点を移す。移住してすぐに、耳の肥えたコアなベルリナーが集まることでも有名なローカルクラブ、GoldenGateのレジデントDJに抜擢される。レギュラーパーティーを務める傍ら、about blank, Kater Holzig, Renate,Sisyphosなど、ベルリン有数のクラブへの出演を果たす。さらには、2011年にドイツトップの野外フェスティバルFusion Festival、2017年、2019年にはGarbicz Fstivalへ出演。その他にも、イギリス、デンマーク、スイス、ポーランド、中米、キプロス島、アジア各地、そしてオーストラリアのSubSonic Festivalでプレイするなど、ワールドワイドへと活動の場を広げている。
GoldenGateでの各月のレギュラーパーティーと、ベルリンの長い冬の間に14時間にも及ぶAfterhourパーティーを主催し、日本人女性でありながらオーガナイザーとしても一目を置かれる存在となっている。2014年には、新潟で自身が主催した野外イベントMoles Open Airの成功を収める。2016年には第３回が行われた。
プレイスタイルは妖気で陽気。DubyでMinimalなHouse, Technoを中心に、Afro beat, Jazz, Funk, Hiphop, Nu discoなど多彩で、自由自在にフロアを操る。
たくさんのテイストを織り交ぜ合わせながら、完璧に作りだされるGrooveはベルリンでも屈指のDJであると言えよう。

Music is a vital source for healing and connecting with others for me since I was four years old.

Max Cooper is an electronic composer, multi-disciplinary artist, music label founder and former scientist who has carved out a unique space in music and visual art.

He holds a PhD in computational biology at the same time as being the first contemporary electronic musician to perform at the ancient Acropolis theatre in Athens and one of the first clutch of musicians to produce in Dolby Atmos.

Cooper has enquired for over 15 years through music, collaborations, and his label Mesh, to explore the intersections between the arts and sciences with installations, performances, immersive experiences, online media, music videos and live events.  Anchored throughout is his emotive approach, connecting how ideas and forms feel, in a manner accessible to us all. 
 
As an artist synonymous with the evolution of club culture, Cooper honed his craft as a DJ with a 10 year residency at legendary Midlands techno event Firefly where he formed a foundational relationship with Architecture Social Club, with whom he still collaborates on extravagant immersive installations.

"I want to encourage the acceptance of electronic music as an art form like any other. Bringing electronic music and abstract audio-visual projects into concert halls, museums and galleries is liberating - the art world opens up doors to communicate in ways that aren’t possible elsewhere."
  
Pivoting from computational biology to electronic music might not seem like the most natural career transition, but for Cooper the commonalities are obvious:
 
"In both fields, you're in a sense, free. Free from the limits of living systems, free from the limits of corporeal sound. The only constraints are in your mind."
