Bio
.. .......... .... .... .... .... DJ Baku from Tokyo Japan, this amazing turntablist / producer is hands-down, DJ Krush's protege and has deep ties with DJ Kentaro, all the roughest Shinjuku freestyle MC's, and psycho-garage band Guitar Wolf. DJ Baku (pronounced "Bah-Koo") the rightful heir to the unique Japanese aesthetic of clean-dirty production, DJ'ing, turntablism started by Krush 20 years ago. "It's a perfect match for our digital-analog-dubplate vinyl slayer N2O Records imprint. Just this year we've been obliberating all-genres by pressing everything from Omar Rodriguez Lopez' Mars Volta solo projects to Indie Dubstep of 6BLOCC to Japanese Pop & Punk to hardcore Kingston Reggae to Mad Capsule Markets solo collabo's and the hyper-cool Tokyo electro-rockers Boom Boom Satellites," proclaims N2O Records label creator Nate "N8LOC" Shimizu, now at 130 records deep in their mobile-suit mission to "break the genre binding" barriers. "We've been doing it for a decade, but now we can do it on a multi-lingual global Death-Note viral scale with ill-mech-warrior Japanese artists like DJ Baku and Uzumaki," says N8LOC... .. .. .. .. Baku's 10 year crossover appeal has allowed him to perform sets with world class top dj/producers Q-bert, Killa Kel, Goth-Trad, Kentaro, Goldie, Krush, D-Styles, and Kid Koala as well as collaborate with innovative dubstep and punk bands. His major performance was at the famous Fuji Rock festival 2006 with bands Red Hot Chili Peppers, Mars Volta, and Beastie Boys. And now American import mixture label N2O Records introduces Baku to the U.S. with his critically acclaimed album "Spinheddz" release date 4/29/08 and DVD "Kaikoo" later this summer..... From electronica, drum and bass, metal, trip hop, hip hop to rock, Baku breaks ground and breaks beats into new genres and subgenres with exiting flavor, tempo and scratching in a musical and fluid composition which makes way for hybrid urban futuristic film soundtrack sounding material infused with heavy metal drums. Add in the flipped out new style Japanese Shinjuku rapping of MC Kann, one must be prepared to witness a new clean-tech sound of high grade hip hop, Tokyo drifter style. One of Baku's most interesting collaborations is with Japanese punk rockers Guitar Wolf in 2006 with a split single called "Ultra Cross Vol. 3" and Rumi, Japan's reply to today's poppy female chanting rappers; but Ms. Rumi comes with a reality check and darkness of Japan's bubble-era high school girls cruising for trouble in Shinjuku. Think Beat Takeshi, Tokyo Decadence, Cowboy Bebop, and Akira as the cd captures and inspires your imagination..... .. .... This record will start with an underground buzz from fans of DJ Shadow, DJ Krush, Kentaro, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Mo Wax, and Ninja Tune. All DJ's will praise this record as reigniting revolutionary breakbeats..... U.S. Pop Group Tour with Dose One of Anticon and N2O Records summer release of Baku "Kaikoo" DVD will further introduce artist Baku follow up album being released in UK and Japan.

DJ Baku vs. DJ Baku (Part 5 of the Spinheddz Saga) brings you into the mind of DJ Baku as he delves into the deeper, more philosophical aspects behind his music, and his personal concept of Hip-Hop.

DJ Baku vs. Street of Tokyo (Part 4 of the Spinheddz Saga) takes you on another look at the underground world of DJ Baku and all the subcultures he naturally becomes the soundtrack for progression.

DJ Baku vs. Tokyo Underground (Kaikoo DVD clip)
The new video clip featuring DJ Baku's beats and Tokyo graffiti yards. Something new and high quality going on in Japan.

As the Tokyo underground rises with movies like "Babel" and Bathing Ape streetwear, DJ Baku exposes the precursor to the Tokyo drifter underground youth culture in his classic mini-movie video "Spin Street" from the "Spinheddz" album. Check out what you have been missing in Shibuya's high-rise crossover graffiti, BMX, tattoo, music and fashion scenes... it's something new with a compelling soundtrack all in one Tokyo subway ride.
