Bio
Sake One is a veteran West Coast DJ, emerging in the late 90s with a string of successful parties, mixtapes and studio productions. Among Sake's early accomplishments were a mixtape in the Suite 903 series for The Fader magazine (2004), a live album for the legendary Fania Records label (2006), and being named a part of the Best DJ Crew in Northern California at the GOLDIE Awards (SF Bay Guardian; 1999).
Sake solidified his reputation nationally and internationally in the early 2000s, creating and helming the legendary Pacific Standard Time weekly party, held in SF with adjunct events in Miami at Winter Music Conference (2005), a monthly in NYC, and a moving Fania tribute party which he co-helmed with legendary NY personality Bobbito Garcia.
In the 2010s Sake has stayed relevant and continued to travel and make an impact as a DJ with his Art of Storytellin' party, which has been produced annually in San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles, NY and Chicago. He also helms the beloved Ultrawave party in Oakland on Thursday nights, which celebrated its 5th anniversary in 2016 and continues to bring world class music and DJ talent to downtown Oakland every week.
Sake One was voted Best DJ in the Bay Area in both the 2016 and 2017 SF Guardian/44 Hills reader poll "Best in the Bay." He is the only DJ to ever win this award two consecutive years.
