After migrating to Sydney from his native Japan, Shigeki discovered his passion for house music when he hit the clubs on Sydney’s Oxford Street scene in 1999. This experience was the catalyst for becoming a DJ, and within a few short years he was one of Sydney’s hottest stars scoring weekly residencies at legendary venues such as Stonewall and Midnightshift. It wasn’t long before Shigeki had some
of the Southern Hemisphere’s biggest events on his resume; Sydney Mardi Gras Party, Big Queer Nation, Sydney Harbour Party, Toy Box and Tropical Fruits to name but a few. In 2005, Shigeki made his debut at Happy in Singapore; this spurred his subsequent relocation to the island nation three years later. Having relocated to one of Southeast Asia's nightlife hubs, Shigeki grew his international following; he has been a regular guest DJ for Atlantis Cruises and has spun in Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Bali, Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai and Taipei. In Singapore he held residencies at CÉ LA VI, Truffle Thursdays, Man About Town and Yum Yum Disco Dong events, as well as guest DJ sets at Phuture and Velvet Underground at Zouk and Singapore’s annual pride event, Pinkdot. Having migrated back to Nagoya in 2023, Shigeki continues to travel around the world for gigs and lock himself in the studio to make his reedits, mashups and remixes. During his colorful DJ career spanning over 20 years, Shigeki has played alongside international legends including Paul Goodyear, Wayne G, Francois K, Horse Meat Disco, Midland and Robert Owen. Outside of the club scene, he performs for global brands including Cartier, Fendi and Spotify. His sets reflect his love of soulful house, big room house, classic disco, nu disco, and anything else that catches his ear.
