Yoshinori Sunahara

Yoshinori Sunahara is an innovative Japanese musician, DJ, and producer, acclaimed for his work in the electronic music genre. His career began in the early 1990s when he emerged as a member of the influential Shibuya-kei band Denki Groove, which played a key role in shaping the sound of Tokyo's club scene during that era. In the late '90s, Sunahara ventured into a successful solo career, establishing a name for himself with his genre-blending aesthetic that often incorporated elements of ambient, techno, and downtempo.

Known for his sonic craftsmanship and a penchant for retro-futuristic themes, Sunahara's solo works often draw inspiration from the glamorous jet-set era and the sleek aesthetics of the 1960s and 70s. Albums like "TAKE OFF AND LANDING" and "Pan Am The Sound Of '70s" showcase his deft sampling techniques and an imaginative approach to creating atmospheric soundscapes that pay homage to the golden age of air travel. Beyond his solo work, he is also noted for his film soundtracks, such as the score for "No Boys, No Cry," showcasing his versatility and ability to adapt his unique style to cinematic narratives. Sunahara's meticulous re-masters, including the updated "LOVEBEAT 2021 Optimized Re-Master," demonstrate his commitment to sonic excellence and his continuous pursuit of refining his artistry in the contemporary music landscape.
