Souichiro Masutomi is Japan based techno/house music producer/Dj,who was born and raised in Osaka, Japan. Influenced by his jazz drums playing mother and his new wave loving sister, Souichiro grew up accustomed to movie music and some electronic new wave bands. He started learning to play the piano at the age of 9, but soon quit because he was bored. After hearing stuff like "soul 2 soul" or "public enemy" as a 12 year old teenager, he was captured by music. Soon after he discovered the 2nd summer of love and his detroit techno heroes. He started composing tracks just for the fun,with a casio synthesizer, a rented guiter and a tape deck. Souichiro discovered and listened to lots of different music, like classic music (especially french stuff), jazz, soul, soundtracks, rock, pop ,experimental and hiphop. at the age of 20, he started making music seriously, and began to DJ.
A meeting with Deetron was then the basis for his first release ever, the magic "4th cycle" ep on Morris Audio Citysport. A beautiful piece of deep house meets Detroit with that certain Carl Craig feel.
His releasing tracks were licensed on some big labels,also got on top DJ's charts like Laurent Garnier,Ken Ishii...
A big career may have started.
