Welcome Nina Yamada
The Pool are pleased to announce that Nina Yamada has joined the Pool artists fold.
Nina a DJ, vinyl collector, curator, and founder of Jazzy Sport London, the UK wing of legendary Japanese record store, label and streetwear brand Jazzy Sport, which has been shaping Japan’s music and fashion culture since 2002.
Deeply influenced by her father’s extensive vinyl collection (as core member of Jazzy Sport Japan) and the vibrant collective of musicians, DJs, producers, designers, and artists that coalesced around collective via Tokyo’s hip hop, soul and (nu) jazz scene of the 2000s - Nina’s relationship with music and the dancefloor started early and runs deep.
With an early immersion within Japan’s dance culture, and more recent exposure within London’s clubbing scene, Nina’s sets gently guides audiences into a soulful and organic place, moving fluidly across deep house, downtempo, dub, disco, acid jazz, Afrobeat, jazz, Latin, reggae, broken beat, and other groove-driven genres that peak her interest.
Since arriving in the UK in 2022, she has performed across Europe and Asia, appearing at Panorama Bar, Wonderfruit, Love Supreme, Multi Multi, We Out Here, Jazz Cafe, and MOT London with well received streams for My Analogue Journal, Yoyaku Paris and Mixmag Lab London proving demand for Nina’s sound continues rising.
With a busy summer remaining, we are pleased to see Nina playing across London, Norway, Ibiza, and more before heading to tour Asia and Japan in late September. We encourage you to go catch her spinning at one of the below dates
