Episode 31– Yuji Kawaguchi aka STDRUMS

You’re never too old to pick up and learn a musical instrument. All it takes is practice. But if I could turn back time, I’d like to pick up drumsticks and start wailing on a drum kit as a toddler. I think it’s one of the most difficult instruments that can take decades to master. Here’s a man that’s used his time wisely to fulfill his dream. Yuji has played in a notable punk band, toured and did studio time for some prominent “anime bands”. A few years back, he’d gone solo and started expanding his creativity. He’s opened for various overseas bands including the U.S. rock supergroup, Battles. Besides jamming around the Tokyo streets, you can often find him basking in the London Underground. During this chat, I’ve found Yuji to be the embodiment of why we fall in love with music and how it shapes our livelihood; connecting us humans no matter where we come from.
