Yoshihiro Sawasaki has been played on NTS shows including Ostaku, with Magic Dome first played on 31 May 2016.

サワサキヨシヒロ (Yoshihiro Sawasaki) started producing in 1993 under the name 'Techno The Gong' and soon after was signed to R&S sub label 'Apollo' under the name 'Y.S.' after fellow DJ Ken Ishii suggested he send in a demo tape. In his early days, his sound was strongly influenced by German progressive sounds to which he added a spacey and ambient twist which sent shock waves through the Japanese and European techno scene.

In 2000 he released his first album "Dr Y.S. & The Cosmic Drunkards" featuring a colorful guest line-up including Masumi Okada, Keiichi Sogabe and Guitar Wolf's Seiji. The album was a carefully constructed 'almanac' of experimental sounds tried and tested over a long period of time.

Not slowing down, in 2003 Y.S. began a regular monthly party at La Fabrique, Shibuya and also established a new unit "ColorCrayon" after pairing up with veteran Jazz pianist Masayuki Nakatomi. Balancing a busy DJ schedule and preparing for several releases this year, Y.S. is definitely someone to keep an eye out for in the Japanese club scene.
