Born in southern Japan, Go Hiyama discovered techno music in 1994, when he got exposed to the sounds of such artists as YMO, Kraftwerk, Jeff Mills, Fumiya Tanaka and labels like Warp and Subvoice among others.
In 1995, Go Hiyama decided that it was time to start making his own tracks. His thinking for minimalism isn't reduced to just music, so his tracks are always built by very different ideas and music styles.
Several european artists like Oscar Mulero and James Ruskin have always supported his productions, releasing Go Hiyama's material on his own labels Coda and Warm Up.
Go Hiyama has released over 15 original productions on many different labels like Electracom, Sheep, Maracas, Audio Assault and the already mentioned Coda and Warm Up. His demand is rapidly growing worldwide.
In 2004, Go Hiyama made his European debut in Spain. People recognized that he had his own style. His Japanese style of techno was pure, unique and underground - nothing that had been heard before in Europe. His reputation and popularity quickly spread all over the continent. He was becoming recognized as one of Japan's most underground and respected techno Live Act.
His current projects include a bunch of releases on the highly acclaimed japanese label Asian Dynasty.
