Storied DJ Francois K has felt the love of Japanese clubbers for years, so it was unlikely an earthquake would keep him away. His and Japan’s mutual love affair doesn’t date quite as far back as Francois’ beginnings at New York’s fabled Studio 54, but the DJ has been a familiar face here for decades. In his ongoing Deep Space events both at Yellow and its current incarnation Eleven, Francois takes the faithful on extended musical odysseys through house, techno, dub and beyond. Guesting is Japanese artist Hiroshi Watanabe, who’s slated to perform live tracks from his new album Sync Positive.
