PARTICLE TRAX
1.PARTICLE(ORIGINAL MIX)
2.THE FOOL(ORIGINAL MIX)
RELEASE DATE : Jul. 14th, 2023(beatport) / Aug. 11th, 2023(other)

Tokyo based Mitsuo Nakazato joins the DJ 19's  PARK LIMITED MUZIK ranks with his debut release, the 'Particle Trax' EP. He started his career as a part of Ryuichi Sakamoto's compilation CD "Document Radio Sakamoto" in 2004, then he has been at the vanguard of the underground dance scene as a producer, and previously released on MINUS, KIDZ LUV TEKKNO and INTACTO among others.

Opening cut 'Particle' is a space faring deep and twisted affair with edges of hypnotic energy throughout. Second track 'The Fool' is a more deep techno version designed on very nice minimalistic synth lines. This EP guides you to your transcendental destination.

PARK LIMITED MUZIKに日本から新たな刺客が参戦。2004年に坂本龍一の『Document Radio Sakamoto』に参加して以降、 MINUS、KIDZ LUV TEKKNO、INTACTOなどテクノ系のレーベルを中心に活動しているMITSUO NAKAZATOが、デビュー・シングルとなる2曲入りEP「Particle Trax」を引っ提げて加勢。まず、空間的ながらも捻れた世界観を構築し、ヒプノティックでディープな「Particle」にて幕開け。続く「The Fool」は、ミニマルな要素にディープさを加味。元々、DJ 19の<MOTHERSHIP>や<the ocean>のクラウドだったというMITSUO NAKAZATOの今後の更なる活躍に刮目せよ。
