daze

About

Somewhere deep in the electronic underground, a selector known only as daze is quietly holding court. By their own admission, they’re a “trueschool househead” first and foremost—a record collector, a promoter, and a DJ who lets the tracks do the talking. Don’t look for flashy gimmicks here; as they put it, they’re “not a model at the same time.” The music is the message, and that message runs through bass music, house, and leftfield electronics, all delivered with a crate-digger’s reverence for the original source. daze’s voice has found a natural home on airwaves and underground streams alike. As a regular host on NTS Radio, they spin sets that dig deep into their personal archive—rare 12-inches, overlooked gems, and floor-shaking bass workouts. They’re also tied closely to Dead Air Records, a label that shares their no-frills, music-first ethos. Whether in the booth or behind the mic, daze operates with the quiet confidence of someone who knows the history of every track they drop. Beyond the studio and the radio desk, daze is an active force on the touring circuit, booking shows across the globe. For North and South America, they work with Ground Control Touring; for Europe, Australia, and Asia, Disk Agency handles the logistics. No fixed location, no social media theatrics—just a DJ who lives for the record bag and the dancefloor.

daze is a Bass Music and Electronic DJ in Sendai. They have performed at TBA, The Sultan Room, Elsewhere.
