D-Node 270: Elli Arakawa

Having spent eight years performing, hosting events and working in art and fashion, Tokyo-based, British-Japanese DJ Elli Arakawa arrives at the next stage in her career. With reinvigorated focus and a clear idea of where she is going, she sees 2015 as something of a turning point.

Inspired by the experiences and styles of techno she was discovering at the Labyrinth Festival, Elli gradually moved away from the eclectic style of DJing she had honed at fashion events, instead refining her taste to deep, purist techno. She plays with high energy and visible enthusiasm, often mixing quickly and catching crowds off guard.

In late 2013 Elli started her own event Duce at club AIR, inviting Levon Vincent as the first guest. Since then she has hosted Tokyo techno hero DJ Shufflemaster and cemented the party as a go-to for techno fans.
