In the early 90s techno hit Japan. Surprised and intrigued, Takaaki Itoh was impressed with this sound. This unique style of beats revealed the gateway to a world of underground music in Japan - something he had never heard before. Surprise slowly gave way to addiction when Takaaki Itoh heard the sound of such artists like UR, Derrick May, Axis, Hardfloor, Sven Väth, Harthouse, Warp and Rising High. This was his sound, and finding he just couldn’t get enough of it, in 1994 Takaaki Itoh began to organise his own techno parties in Norioka Iwate having success by providing a fantastic line up. In 1996, having decided that it was time to start making his own tracks, he went out and purchased the vital instruments and began producing. After sending out 3 finished tracks to various labels, Electracom UK made the first contact with Takaaki Itoh, and followed to release his first track. This moment was something he will never forget as for the first time in his life he was able to finally release his own record.
