Daisuke Yosumi
Daisuke Yosumi (born 1970) began his career at Sony Music in Tokyo in 1995 and was headhunted by Warner Music in 2004. As a producer, he created ten million-selling hits, before moving to a lakeside forest in New Zealand in 2010 to fulfil a long-held dream. The original Japanese edition of Let Go sparked a nationwide minimalist boom.
He mastered the art of ‘letting go’ through three radical life stages: his difficult school years, the corporate battlefield, and now a self-sufficient life free from the pressures of time and money in New Zealand, where he lives with his family. A pioneer of Japan’s digital nomad and trekking movements, he is the first Japanese ambassador for both Greenpeace Japan and Fairtrade Japan. He also leads LifestyleDesign.Camp, an online community school for post-capitalist living.
