Ken Motoyama – Live Groovebox Techno

I am a DAWless Machine Jam performer based in Fukuoka, Japan. I produce original tracks in Techno, House, Tech Funk and more.

I started my musical career in my childhood, influenced by YMO and Kraftwerk. After that, I was exposed to various genres of music, and in the 90s I was captivated by the charm of funk music.

I continued my musical career in Fukuoka for many years as a keyboard player. At the same time, my interest in techno was rekindled while exploring my own original sound.

I was shocked to see OCTAVE ONE and KiNK playing machine music and getting people excited, so I left the band and started my solo career.In 2019, I stepped into a new stage.

Currently, I am active as a machine DJ who plays techno using only hardware.

I continue to pursue my own unique techno sound that combines my r musical experience with the influence of artists I respect.
