BY CONURES
Born in 1976. From Kanagawa, Japan
On his return to Japan in ’99 he took the Tokyo club scene by storm.
He was selected to be a resident DJ of the famous epic trance party ‘Sound collection’ and appearing and producing over 100 themed parties and nights a year at some of Tokyo’s legendary clubs. This firmly established Tokunaga’s much loved DJ house style.
Tokunaga’s love for the scene did not stop there; he went out his way to spread dance music by inviting household name DJs such as Tiesto, Ferry Corsten and Armin Van Buuren who were little known in Japan at that time.
By 2005 Tokunaga focused on producing for himself and other artists. In 2008 the track he made with his cohort Yuta Nakamura was released from the Scottish Label “Dark room” and “Dubs recording”.
Today, Tokunaga has established himself as a celebrated solo artist, releasing numerous tracks under labels Galaxy Recz. One of his tracks ‘Solid’ (Galaxy Recz) was ranked at No. 5 on Hernan Cattaneo’s monthly chart. Hernan went on to invite and include the Solid Remix in his English club night “Renaissance” 20 year anniversary compilation album.
On the back of this success the artist formerly known as Tokunaga took the opportunity to change his name to ‘Conures’.Born in 1976. From Kanagawa, Japan
