The first CD I bought was Kazumasa Oda's "Love Story Suddenly".
Yes, it's entirely from TV.
In junior high school, he's a little weird that he always listens to electric grooves while being absorbed in visual systems such as X and LUNA SEA.
In high school, he leaned towards Western music all at once and was blessed with the so-called golden age of Western music such as nirvana, smashing pumpkins, NOFX, and OFF SPLING.
After that, I listened to a lot of the music of my friends who I met in the band activities on stage and CD, and recently I became interested in DJ, so I was addicted to techno and dance music that I have always liked.

  • Product name

    A Raver's Diary /Dusty Kid

    An album with a unique view of the world. If you can dance, that's fine! From an intuitive dance number to a masterpiece with a beautiful melody that will last forever, it is a work that will not get tired of the listener.
    He especially likes his unique and amazing track, and the one-shot deadly upper tune that the body begins to dance while it is thrilling is a perfect completion.

    For Whom The ROCK ROLLS / TOTALFAT

    A band that I often meet and get along with recently at summer festivals. A west coast fast melodic sound that simply makes you feel refreshed. The sound reminiscent of NOFX, which was popular when I was a high school student, recalls memories linked to youth.
    When you listen to it while riding in a car, it feels like a speeding sensation, which is a crime.

    Flying colors / AIR

    One of the bible-like beings for me. Kurumaya's aggressive face is pushed out to the front, and the sound is extremely complete. Above all, Yasuo Sano on the drums is an eternal admiration for me, and without him I wouldn't be right now. It has given me a lot of stimulus in such a growing process.
    If it comes true, I'd like to see the three people rampaging on stage again.

    Flash mob / Vitalic

    Among the dance music, I like the artist who specializes in aggressive sound like him.
    In this work, flash mob, which is also the title of the album, is one push.
    The critical synth sound that reverberates throughout the entire volume has an impact that you can't take your head off once you hear it.
