Ninja Gaijin mixes

Ninja Gaijin (Melbourne, Australia) originally began playing guitar in Indie Rock, Improvised Noise & Metal bands in 1997, and was a student of Melbourne's Rock n Roll High School. After falling in love with Jungle in 1995, he later discovered and became equally enraptured with Terrorcore, Speedcore & Breakcore music. For a couple of years he produced as Quantum Nanotech Extinction before settling on his current moniker - a namesake of the video game Ninja Gaiden. His music primarily focuses on expressing deep emotions with juxtapositon of light and dark elements.

He also organises events under the name Subterfuge Seminars (primarily the Terrorcore, Breakcore & Hardcore Techno club event Axed, which he co-runs alongside Dutch ex-pat DJ Jor Terror). Ninja has additionally done some rapping (as Tannu Gaijin), a bit of Tuvan & Mongolian style throat-singing, and in the late `90s created and maintained official band websites for acts such as Sea Scouts and Ninetynine under the banner 'The Grey Sea'. He also has dabbled in zine writing, music journalism, music photography and hosting the occasional community radio show.
