Well known for his tracks featured on the Adult Swim anime series "Samurai Champloo", the opening song "Battle Cry" is one of Shing02's well known works with Japanese producer Nujabes. Shing02 has rocked many stages throughout the past decade in many countries including Bosnia, France, Sweden, and has accompanied M.I.A. on her Japan tour in 2006. As an activist he has been involved with the STOP ROKKASHO project with Japanese musician Ryuichi Sakamoto which is an appeal to stop the reprocessing of nuclear waste in Japan and all over the world. [http://stop-rokkasho.org/]. Somewhere between touring, activism, writing songs, and producing his own beats, Shing02 is also credited as the inventor of the Vestax Faderboard.
