Full Name: Jason Chau
How I got here: I am somewhat heavily influenced by music from the BEMANI series, starting around 2002 when I borrowed PSX DDR games from my friend, which I then expanded to IIDX, GFDM, Pop'n, and PPP.
How I got started: I participated in the FREAKY PLANET remix contest for m.o.v.e at ACIDplanet. I didn't come close to winning, but it was an interesting experience.
Why I do it: I like music. I like making music. Maybe I can inspire other people as well.
Aliases: I started off as WILD JOKER as my alias of the remix contest, but after the contest was over, I use DJ YASU for all of my original works.
The origin of "DJ YASU" comes from the [康] character of my Chinese name, which can be pronounced as "Yasu" in Japanese. It also reflects on my interest in Japanese culture as well.
Genres: Electronica, Rock, and other genres that catch my interest.
Programs I use: Sony ACID Pro 6.0 and FLStudio 7. I don't play or own any live instruments in my tracks. They're composed from VST instruments and audio samples I have.
I currently host my music on Box.net, where it can be streamed or downloaded. (The link is in my signature) |
