How did you come to the "bass", to Techno once? A: Growing up in Tokyo in the 90`s when the rave boom came, we were exposed to all sorts of electronic music. From Techno, House, Ambient, Goa Trance, Electronic Rock, everything was just mixed up. Genres didn't matter at the time, good music was good music. The parties here would be a mix of different styles of dance music. From Techno, Goa Trance, Tribal live performances, many style were just mixed throughout the party. This mix takes a bit from these styles. Music that was just something new and influential to us. Q: From Japan to the world. What are your favorite places to play your music on the planet? A: Thats a tough question. We always find every place to be special. Each country, region, city have their own vibe and to us, it's all about this. Every place is a favorite to us! Q: Which future projects are on the way? What to expect in 2020? A: We just released our album from Tronic "Where We Start". We have a collab EP with Misstress Barbara coming up in April on Octopus Recordings and a remix work we worked on with Christian Smith for Tronic. We also had a chance to do some remix works. More info coming soon!
