<autobr />JAGUAR SKILLS <autobr />UNMASKED<autobr />Written By: Tom<autobr />_______________________________________<autobr /><big>PART 1:</big><autobr />You incorporate a lot of Japanese ideas/motifs into your persona, what is it about the japanese culture that draws <autobr />you to it?<autobr />_______________________________________</mltext><autobr>1</autobr></item><item num="4" type="control" status="1" page="1"><name>clear_lf</name></item><item num="5" type="mltext" status="1" page="1"><name>text</name><mltext>Coming from london, Japan is the complete opposite in every way culturally, I think that's the reason a lot of people from England are into Japanese things. When I was a kid I was really into Japanese ninja movies and martial arts, that's really where it all started. I actually used to do a lot of Jiu-Jitsu, as well as watching lot of ninja movies. The same way a lot of kids want to be cowboys or astronauts, I really just wanted to be a ninja. There was this movie "Ninja 3: The Domination", I watched it when I was around 8 and I remember it just blew my mind. The way the ninjas looked, I was fascinated by it.</mltext><autobr>1</autobr></item><item num="6" type="mltext" status="1" page="1"><name>text</name><mltext><iframe loading="lazy" width="100%" height="300" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/189763280&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;visual=true"></iframe></mltext><autobr>1</autobr></item><item num="7" type="mltext" status="1" page="1"><name>text</name><mltext><img src="/files/2015/02/f54da13e0c691f.jpg" alt="dfkjfhdjfgdhjghjgdfhjgdfhjkg.jpg" /></mltext><autobr>1</autobr></item><item num="8" type="mltext" status="1" page="1"><name>text</name><mltext>From there I just started watching Sentai movies and TV shows. There was this program called "Power Rangers" in England, which was edited in such a weird way. Half of the show (the dialogue) was American, and all of the fighting and action scenes were completely Japanese. The fighting scenes just looked different, it looked distinctly Japanese. They would always be in a quarry, somewhere with an industrial grey backdrop juxtaposed against these bright neon colored superheroes, it was wild. That's basically where the obsession started, I began collecting Sentai movies and researching it, and found out this shit had been going on since the 60s in Japan, and there were millions of different action heroes with all kinds of different masks.</mltext><autobr>1</autobr></item><item num="9" type="mltext" status="1" page="1"><name>text</name><mltext><img src="/files/2015/01/f54c639f30e4b8.jpg" alt="jaguarpart1" /></mltext><autobr>1</autobr></item><item num="10" type="mltext" status="1" page="1"><name>text</name><mltext>
<div align="center"><autobr />When I made my first mixtape I wanted to make it look like and sound like it was the soundtrack for an old Sentai movie from Japan that no one had ever heard of. In a way it's kind of like how people that aren't from England assume we all wear top hats and drink tea with crumpets, it was very stereotypical. That's all Jaguar Skills was supposed to be at the time though, I had no idea I'd end up DJ'ing around the world with a ninja mask on.
