HIROSHI WATANABE aka KAITO (Transmat / Kompakt)
ドイツ最大のエレクトロニック・レーベルKompakt唯一の日本人アーティストとしてKaito名義で4枚のオリジナルアルバム、更にそれぞれ対になるビートレス・アルバムをリリースし、繊細かつ美しい旋律により幅広い音楽ファンに受け入れられている。ギリシャのKlik Recordsからは本名のHIROSHI WATANABE名義でも2枚のアルバムを残している。2016年にはテクノ史に偉大な軌跡を刻んできたデトロイトのレーベルTransmatより『Multiverse』を発表。主宰Derrick Mayの審美眼により極端に純度の高い楽曲のみがナンバリングされるため、近年はリリースそのものが限定的になっている中での出来事。さながら宇宙に燦然と煌めく銀河のようなサウンドが躍動する作品となっている。日本人として前人未到の地へ歩みを進める稀代の音楽家と言えるだろう。
