anyone tell me anything about this guy?
he's japanese. he's a very good dj. he's a very good producer. he has been around for many many years. he has many aliases - FLR probably the most famous of them. what else is there to know?
about 10/15 years ago i did an interview on a submarine with this guy. quite bizarre i can tell you. was a big fan of his early r+s stuff. used to be huge but not heard too much from him recently...
cool, just wanted to hear some subjective personal experience.Quote:

first time i've heard of him, just picked up some album from 1995 off ebay and wondered if he was okay.Quote:

stuff you take for granted maybe people new to techno don't know much about.
Easy Filters is the sh*t
Saw him play at split not long ago.
Not terribly impressed, played a few old hardcore tracks in there, they were the only ones that got the crowd going.
Hard to compete with the Advent and Ben Sims on the same bill though...
i've got a couple of sets of mr ishii on is awsome the other is a bit fishii
his jelly tones album was the bomb think it came out either 96 or 97 quality tracks on that..... if your lookin for a set look for ken ishii live@ the loft barcelona that is the good set
Never really been a fan of the bits i've heard. But to be fair I haven't heard that much of his music.
yeah i just bought jelly tones for 1.50 off ebayQuote:
