Hikaru kicked off his DJ career in 2006, moving on to produce Hi-TENSION at his native stomping grounds of Toyama in 2010. The event brought together only the finest local and international artists for powerful, peaceful grooves—and continues to deliver smiles to this very day. In 2020, the party’s momentous tenth anniversary year, Hikaru officially joined Japan’s leading trance label, Grasshopper Records.

His mixing prowess is highly regarded far and wide, with a fluid story-telling ability that makes an entire hour seem like a single song. This is a true DJ, born and bred.
