HIRAME

Hirame is a DJ originally from Osaka Japan, now based in New York City. She began her journey in the late 2000s, deeply influenced by the golden era of New York house music that swept through Osaka’s underground scene. Her sound is rooted in soulful, vocal-driven house with rich percussion and uplifting grooves, while seamlessly blending elements of electro, disco, tech, and beyond.

From 2008 to 2013, she organized "INFINITY" — a beloved Sunday daytime party at Club STOMP in Osaka, focused on music, dance, and cultural expression. With a concept of crossing genres and art forms, the event featured African dancers, belly dance, capoeira, live percussion, and didgeridoo performances.

In 2018, she launched a new party series called “Sunnyside” in both Osaka and Tokyo — a warm, daytime gathering where people of all ages could enjoy house music, dance, and community.

She also played regular sets at legendary Osaka venues like Grand Café and UNION, honing a style that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking. Today, she continues to share her unique vision of house music from her new base in NYC, always aiming to build inclusive spaces where music and movement come together.
