Shinichiro Yokota

Shinichiro Yokota (横田信一郎, Yokota Shin'ichirō; born July 12, 1969) is a Japanese DJ and record producer known for his single "Do It Again," which gained significant attention due to an incorrect credit on YouTube that mistakenly attributed the track to Soichi Terada. His early exposure to music came in his childhood when he learned of the band Yellow Magic Orchestra, which inspired him to start pursuing music. After discovering hip hop in the 1980s, he began producing beats and collaborating with artists in the genre. In 1990, Yokota co-founded the label Far East Recording with Terada, but it faced limited success. Despite a hiatus from music and ventures into other industries, he made a comeback in 2016 with the album Do It Again and Again. Influenced by synthesizer-based works of Ryuichi Sakamoto and Akiko Yano, Yokota has been recognized as a pioneer of Japanese house music alongside Terada. His music, characterized by its electronic and house genres including downtempo, deep house, and tech house, features a minimalist style that emphasizes beats, bass, and vocals.
