From DJ Kyoko’s early days in the Tokyo underground, to wrecking absolute havoc at legendary island massives like Atlantis at Sea Life Park and Children of the Corn, no matter how big or small a scene may be, the most important factor is cohesiveness.

“It’s better for all of us to mingle with and learn from each other. Constant little changes and challenges are key to a DJ’s progression,” said the minimal techno and progressive psy-trance purist.

While she’s a renaissance DJ of sorts because she plays strictly vinyl, her dedication to Hawai’i’s electronica dance music movement is unquestioned.

“My ultimate admiration and appreciation goes to all those who really know how to spin vinyl, because to me that is the true art of DJing. So here’s to all the vinyl-slingers and all those who are still keeping it real.”
