Makoto
Makoto Shimizu, more widely known simply as “Makoto”, is a testament to the international scope and power of electronic music. Born, raised and still based in Tokyo, Makoto was influenced at a young age by a wide variety of music ranging from classical to soul and funk. Upon hearing the soundtrack to The Last Emperor by the Academy Award winning composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, Makoto made a life changing decision – to pursue a career in music. He was introduced to drum and bass through the radio shows of Giles Peterson on Kiss FM and BBC Radio 1, and began experimenting with the genre through his own compositions.
Alongside his vast discography and gigs across Asia, Europe, UK and USA, Makoto has been busy setting up his own label – HE:Digital. Focusing mainly on digital releases, the label has given Makoto an opportunity to not only release his own material, but that of others as well. In 2010 he released the compilation album HE:Possibilities through the label. The release featured up and coming producers from Japan.
Bigup
Bigup is a multigenerational DJ collective with deep roots in the Oslo dnb and jungle scene. Hitting the dancefloor with heavy basslines, rolling rhythms and syncopated breaks - the Bigup nights are guaranteed to take you on a journey through time from the atmospheric jungle of the early 90s to the futuristic grooves of contemporary drum&bass.
Bigup consists of Tech, Fjell, Drunkfunk and Simon Peter. Four DJ’s with each their own style and groove, from vinyl to digital, from early jungle to the many modern sub genres of drum & bass. Coming up through Oslo’s club scene since 2018, Bigup has found their home at Jaeger where they since 2020 push the subs to their limit.
