Three-dimensional sonic architecture that conjures space and depth, plus an experimental streak that ranges across genres from steppers to drum & bass. "Sketchbook," a 22-track collection from Sydney-born techno producer KAISEI KITADA, drops on OPTIC PORTAL, the offshoot of MIRROR ZONE, the label helmed by avant-garde techno maverick SPEKKI WEBU!
Track List

Australia-based young talent KAISEI KITADA unveils a hefty 22-track collection. The foundation is an atmospheric sound design full of pleasingly resonant echoes. Within 4/4 he moves from avant-garde fast techno to steppers, and he also breaks free of the four-on-the-floor grip entirely for D&B and abstract excursions, exploring sound and groove across a wide range of styles. Even the most pared-back minimal techno cuts carry a psychedelic twist in their tones — this is anything but straightforward. You can preview every track from the tracklist!
