About: DJ Krush

Hideaki Ishii, performing as DJ Krush, helped put Japanese hip-hop on the global map in the 1990s through his atmospheric, instrumental approach and his association with the Mo'Wax label. His live sets pair deep breakbeats with jazz and soul samples, accompanied by laser shows and visual projections.
