Interview with Takushi Yoshida

Hi Takushi Yoshida great to have you here on EBW. 
Shall we start with a small introduction of your background in DJing?
I have been Djing since 2006 in Yokohama. Initially, I did not have any DJ friends and so a long time was required to organize the first party in Tokyo. It was bitter days. Those were bitter days. That is why I'm always keen to share the chance to spin for newcomers. Recently, I moved my centre for DJ-ing from Tokyo to Singapore.

Please describe how and where this current mix was recorded?
Mixier:Xone:92+Traktor Scrach Pro2+Traktor control x1
This mix was recorded live at my house with the finest USB Cable "Continental 5S(OYAIDE)". Sometimes I heard that Data file music is not clearer and less fun than Vinyl. When I went back to Japan in Nov. OYAIDE has released it. Then tried it. I felt this cable pave the new stage for All PC DJ. So, I choose Traktor with it for this mix.

So what's the idea/inspiration behind the mix?
The main idea behind the EBW Podcast is "Warmth of the body". The ideas include Evanescence, Vital energy, and Tact in the background. Usually, I prefer more easy-listening to dance tracks, But I didn't use it to appear Tacit Knowledge.

What new ideas or plans do you have going forward?
As I mentioned, just moved my base from Tokyo. Fortunately, I've already encountered with lots of DJs in SG. I have also started to spin with multinational crew at Full Circle (@En bar).

If tomorrow you are lost on a deserted island, what will be the 3 songs you will bring with you?

Incognito - Out of the storm (Carl Craig Planet E Special Mix)

Martin Dawson - Soft Synth (Original Mix)

Norah Jones - Sunrise (Radio Slave Mix)
