DJ mix”白樺”は、日本最初のカルチャーブック”白樺”の編集者の一人柳宗悦の”西洋の美的観点を持って、日本の民族文化や民謡品を見つめ直しその中に藝術性を見出す”という民藝活動から着想を得ています。それは現代で言うと、ヒップホップ的なアプローチで日本の音楽の中から”ネタ”になるような音を掘り出し”和モノ”へと昇華していく事に通ずるものを感じます。DJ mix”白樺”では和モノを中心に、また和モノが発掘される発端になったアメリカはもちろんのこと、世界中のレアグルーヴが交わるDJ mixです。The DJ mix "Shirakaba" is named after Japan's first art magazine, also known as "Shirakaba", which was published in the 1910s to 1920s and focused on introducing modern art from Western countries and Japanese folk art. One of the editors of "Shirakaba," Muneyoshi Yanagi, advocated an ideology for his Japanese folk art activities, which he called "Mingei (民藝)." His goal was to discover the hidden artistic qualities within Japanese folk cultures by combining an understanding of Western countries' sense of beauty. He believed that this process constituted the essence of "Mingei" activities.This ideology shares common ground with specific activities within the hip-hop movements of 1990s Japan. Japanese vinyl diggers endeavored to discover rare grooves in Japanese songs, adopting a hip-hop approach.During the Shirakaba mix , primarily play Japanese rare grooves and rare grooves from all around the world, using the sensibilities developed by delving into Japanese music. It's a unique mix which you can listen to a fusion of dope music from worldwide sources.
