Description

Chicago DJ and self-declared “Meme Queen“ Hiroko Yamamura will hit the stage with a B2B performance with HAAi at ARC Music Festival on Friday, Aug. 29. In preparation for ARC weekend, she explained how minimum planning is ideal — her set will depend on the vibes, the people and the weather of that day. As music has been an integral part of her life, she shared her thoughts on pre-produced sets, how she defines genres and her honest advice to young DJs.

This interview originally aired on Vocalo Radio 91.1 FM during Nudia in the Afternoons on Tuesday, August 19. It was hosted and produced by Nudia Hernandez. It was edited and mixed by Morgan Ciocca, with production support from Talia Lopresti. Keep up with us @vocalo on Instagram and @vocalo.radio on TikTok. Dig deeper into the story at wbez.org/vocalo.
