DJ Mizuyo is a Japanese DJ from Yokohama City. She grew up with world music and fell in love with black music culture and started djing in 1999. Immediately, Mizuyo was at the center of a Yokohama scene that merged turntable culture, skateboarding, percussion as well as Cuban and Brazilian music. This inspired Mizuyo to launch her renowned ‘Shrine’ Afro-party events in Tokyo.
