KAZU
The concept was a multimedia mix control (DJ event/visuals/fashion) company and it was a big movement for the Club culture of Tokyo at the time. 15 years later he is still at it, a master of his craft.
Kazu first toured the USA back in 1990 playing club Medusa in Chicago and the legendary Trax in Washington DC. After returned from the States he started production of his own where he was featured on early Japanese compilations such as Tokyo Explosion ‘, Vol 1 and vol 2 of Crown Records and as collaborative projects with DJs like Honda, Hiroshi Fujiwara and DJ Heyta. After mastering his native country of Japan Kazu took the step of re locating to Brisbane, and quickly established himself not only as the states but one of the countries finest techno exponents.
He was received with open arms wowing local crowds and was immediately enlisted for shows across the country - from Perth to Sydney, Hobart to Melbourne (techno city) where he was widely acclaimed as the most popular techno DJ. All this while still travelling between Brisbane and Tokyo where he would play at the famous super club "Liquid Room" Tokyo.
One of Holland's best underground Techno / House Labels " Touché " approached him to release his own material and has to date released 'Sound Media' 4 Tracks EP through Touche's sub label Jam 95'. Mushroom Distribution service Australia approached him to mix the first ever DJ Excursions series CD vol 3, a first for Australia.
Over the past 6 years he has gone on to become a household name in Germany, Holland, Spain, Eastern Europe and Spain due to his busy DJ schedule. He is a regular at clubs including E Love (Hong Kong,) Timewarp Festival (Germany) U60311 (Frankfurt), Palazzo (Bingen) Stammheim (Kassel), Warehouse (Cologne), Time Club (Amsterdam), Night town (Rotterdam), Club One, Emotion and Fabrik (Madrid), Fast Foward (Tarragona), Octopus and Zeus (La Coruna), Technological Festival (Vigo), Delfos and Equus (Ponferrada), Bass Blaster Festival (Brno, Czhech Republic),Club Atlantic(Bosnia) and the super techno club " Ambasada Gavioli “ (Isola, Slovenia) to name only a few.
To express himself more freely Kimura has once again returned to the studio already releasing for the acclaimed CL-Recordings imprint and WetMusik in progress, also New techno label from Barcelona´s Mutual Solid Cuts records for the latest release and some remix work for friends….
