Ken Ishii

Tokyo, JapanDetroit techno from Japan

Ken Ishii has been taking Japanese techno around the world since 1993, and has never settled into a formula — his own words are forward-thinking electronic music, which reads less like a slogan than a working method.

He runs the 70 Drums label out of Tokyo, and co-brews a beer called KIKK IPA, which tells you something about how seriously he takes side projects. “The Second Sun” is his on volume 3.
