TIME HOLE 1ST ANNIVERSARY

Satoshi Otsuki's Time Hole is celebrating its first anniversary, featuring guest appearance by Francesco Del Garda.

Born in Italy in 1978, Francesco Del Garda immersed himself in music at the age of 16 and has since devoted his energy to honing his DJ skills and building his record collection. He is highly regarded as a key figure in the European underground techno/house scene since the 2000s, alongside notable names such as Binh, Nicolas Lutz, and dj masda.

His label, Timeless, consistently releases tracks that live up to the label’s name, offering timeless appeal. Early in the catalog, he released works by scene-leading DJs and producers such as Evan Baggs and Christian AB. More recently, he has spotlighted the next generation of talents like Inner Lakes and Lucretio & Omar Akhrif.

His DJ style is characterized by a selection that elegantly crosses eras while capturing contemporary trends. From the edgy minimal techno/tech-house of recent years to the pungent UK garage of the late '90s and hidden dub mixes of NY house classics, he is a genuine record digger who expertly selects grooves that fit the floor. His mixing, which adeptly reads the development and quirks of tracks, occasionally features classic techniques like scratching and backspinning. His skills are recognized by his peers, and this January, he showcased a B2B set with the venerable Craig Richards at London's iconic fabric. He has also performed B2B sets with Raresh from the Romanian music leading RPR Sound System.

He is expected to deliver another spectacular DJ performance that will captivate the audience during his performance in Japan this time.

Also playing at this event is Loa Szala from London's Picnic Agency, a vanguard of European avant-garde tech-house and minimal, who will perform on the 4th floor at the Delivery A.S.F party hosted by Alien Sex Friends at Shibuya MITSUKI. Loa Szala will share the stage with Alien Sex Friends resident DJs P-yan & Ryokei.

Additionally, the talented Ouissam, based at the notable Hanoi spot Savage and a frequent performer at Berlin's Panorama Bar, will DJ on the 1st floor alongside his allies Sisi & Yamarchy.

The main floor’s presentation will be handled by REALROCKDESIGN, who also organizes Time Hole and is a key figure at the Rainbow Disco Club.

This first anniversary of Time Hole promises to be a party where you can enjoy cutting-edge sounds from around the world on every floor.
