This month’s show welcomes the Paris-born, Tokyo-raised DJ, producer, label founder, and sound designer @alexfromtokyo (aka Alex Prat).
Living in Japan for 25 years during the 80s and 90s, Prat had an ear to the ground for Tokyo’s thriving electronic and dance music scenes. He worked as a DJ, promoter, translator, and coordinator between Japan and the rest of the world, before launching his own label in 2002, titled world famous.
This fall, Prat will be releasing Japan Vibrations Vol. 1, a compilation which in his own words, sounds like “the heartbeat of Tokyo: electric, eclectic, and always surprising.” For this episode of Carhartt WIP Radio, he has created a mix blending an array of styles from Japanese jazz and funk, to city pop and house. Visit the link in bio to listen to the mix and read an accompanying interview.
