Naoki Kenji - Collection (2000- 2017)

Japanese-german sound wizard Naoki Kenji started his career as a keyboard player in Tokio and Osaka, deeply inspired by electronica heros such as Yellow Magic Orchestra und Riuchi Sakamoto. With countless releases in Japan, Europe and the US on labels such as Sony or Universal/US (including a nomination for the grammy award), Kenji has a great experience as a producer, composer, DJ and remixer (e.g. for Al Jarreau and Ivan Lins). ‚Denshi Ongaku’ is not only a marvellous musical statement, but also proves Naoki’s ambitions as a video artist - his well received works for cult like tv program ‚Flowmotion’ speak for itself. Dreamy harmonic textures meet up with organic downbeat grooves, while beautiful string motifs collide with sounds from outer space. Naoki Kenji is an innovator and electronica genius in the deepest sense of the word, and with his outstanding production skills and songwriting abilities he fuses different styles to form unique emotional and melodious landscapes. ‚Denshi Ongaku’ is taking a loan from Electronica, Jazz, Breakbeats and Soundtrack Music to create a breathtaking swinging hybrid beyond the usual styles of modern lounge discretionary.
