Midnight In A Perfect World: DJ NHK Guy

DJ NHK Guy is the alias of Seattle-via-Fukuoka electronic producer Jesse Lopez, creator of some of the finest juke/footwork rhythms to emerge locally as well as internationally in the last few years. Fusing a love for disco, J-pop, vaporwave, R&B, and video game soundtracks through frenetic and unpredictable percussive workouts, his distinctive style is on full display on his new official debut full-length album At Your Door, recently released on Japanese label Yesterday Once More. His exclusive guest DJ mix is a thrilling showcase of his infectious and relentlessly rhythmic style, storming through some of his favorite underground juke/footwork tracks while adding in some of his own original productions and bootleg remixes along the way.

Midnight in a Perfect World, KEXP's weekly hour-long guest DJ show, airs Fridays at midnight. This multi-genre program features eclectic sets by a rotating cast of international and local DJ’s, each building upon a party vibe to kick off your weekend. Midnight in a perfect world is made possible with support from New Belgium Brewing.
