Takashi started DJing as a student in Fukuoka in Japan (the home of tonkotsu ramen), and claimed his deejaying moniker (he DJs as DJ Warp) thanks to the Warp label t-shirt he was wearing the first time he spun records. In the intervening years hes developed a taste for superb hard house and deep - minimalistic techno, and - after a stint in Okayama, where he ran small underground techno events Pulse, he moved back to Kyushu, where he now spins, makes music and runs Missile parties in Kagoshima.
