MASA(Spacegathering / Hypnodisk)

MASA is mainly known as a psychedelic trance Dj but is also a highly professional sound creator involved in various movie sound tracks and sound generator programming for Roland and other music companies. He is one of the few people who introduced GOA trance in the early 90s to Japan. With an in-depth knowledge of synthesizer programming that began with his first noise band he originally concentrated his efforts on making new and original sounds more than Dj-ing. Soon after discovering the facinating sound of trance he created T.T.T (Tokyo Techno Tribe) . Together they played live at early Equinox parties (origninators of Japan trance parties) but have since gone off on their own individual journeys. Now they both enjoy great notoriety as the original driving force behind the massive Japan dance scene. Early in his career he played with famous Dj Hamase as X-Tron and has since collaborated worldwide with famous artists like Xavier, Ray Castle, Mike Maguire, and Tsuyosh's band Joujouka.
