This mix is a sonic excursion on my roots — not as fixed anchors, but as currents that flow through my life. My musical sense and life was shaped by spiritual jazz and it’s energy;  searching, ecstatic, expansive. Growing up in Japan and now, living in Germany, my roots is still growing to expand and taking hold in unfamiliar soil.

My Roots in Jazz

Toshiki Shimada started his career as a hip hop Dj and thanks to the denseness of music genres in Tokyo, variation of styles can be heard through his mixing. The tracks he chooses to play differ in style but have consistent fashion in detail and the core - psychedelic and hypnotic sounds which are cultivated in the fertile club culture in Japan. Tracks harmonise and conflict between each other, transcending into layers of sound in the aggregate. His play focuses on creating tension and releasing energy through creating layers. He’s played at important techno clubs in Tokyo, such as Contact, Circus, Asia, Air and Module.
