¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U, The sound architect who defies genres arrives at Dour Festival on 20th July!
¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U, an exceptional Japanese DJ, is a true alchemist of mixing, capable of blending genres with astonishing dexterity.
Originally from Osaka, he first made his name by organising the Zone Unknown parties before moving to Tokyo. His meteoric rise began with a legendary set at DJ Nobu’s FUTURE TERROR, before conquering Europe’s most avant garde festival stages and establishing himself as a key figure at Berghain.
Considered by his peers as one of the most talented and unpredictable artists on the global electronic scene, he forges unexpected connections between musical styles, thanks to his absolute mastery of CDJs. His approach to mixing, between experimentation and hypnotic power, turns every performance into a timeless experience.
More than just a DJ, ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U is a sonic architect, a visionary who has left his mark, notably as part of the Asian Dope Boyscollective, where he has sublimated hypnotic TRANCE installations. In 2020, he released the Midnight is Comin’ compilation on Midnight Shift, further solidifying his reputation as a master of harmonious chaos.
His fame skyrocketed with viral performances: his Hör Berlin 2022 set amassed over two million views in less than ten months, while his Boiler Room 2025 shattered records with two million views in just ten days. With every set, he pushes the boundaries of DJing and redefines audience expectations.
On 20th July, his set at Dour Festival promises to be a groundbreaking experience: a hypnotic journey where sound collides in an unprecedented harmony.
