Home country: Japan
Special skill: DJ
Hey, I’m DJ RINOKA, I’m from Tokyo, Japan and I hold 2 Guinness World Records titles for my DJ performances! I've played music to 100-plus clubbers – they danced, partied, and we had such a blast. 🤩

How it all started…
I've been dancing and grooving to all kinds of music for as long as I can remember! 🕺
Then one day, when I was 4, I stumbled across a video of a cool female DJ on YouTube – and I just knew I had to try it too.
After asking Santa for a DDJ-200 allll year long, I finally got it for Christmas and started DJing when I was 5.
Now I play the music I love for large crowds and make amazing memories!
If you want to break my records, I think you should give it a go! Not only for the records, but also to entertain everyone.

🔎 What does the word DJ stand for?
It stands for "disc jockey". A DJ is someone who plays and mixes music for people to enjoy, like at parties, clubs, or on the radio!

How I prepared for the record attempts
To prepare the sets, I searched for songs I like on my computer, made a set list and practised… a lot!
Connecting the songs is super hard, and I use proper professional equipment to do it.
Playing for over an hour was extra tiring. 😩
But in the end, I was SO happy to have a record!

Fun facts about me
When I’m not in school or DJing, I like to:
- Take hip-hop and jazz dance lessons 💃
- Skateboard 🛹
- Play the keyboard 🎹
- Draw 🎨
- Play at the park close to my house, where I often have picnics with my family and…
- Collect insects! 🐛
What do you like to do for fun?
My biggest inspirations are Amelie Lens and Nina Kraviz. I think they’re great!
