Keita Sano – Resident Advisor podcast #515 2016-04-11

“Slamming house from one of our favourite new producers.
It took one minute and two seconds for us to fall for Keita Sano. That’s how long it was before a rude-as-f bassline dropped in his 2014 track “People Are Changing.” It was our introduction to a producer we’d now rank among the maddest and most interesting in house and techno. Perhaps what we like best about Sano is his restlessness. “People Are Changing” was part of a wave of tracks he released through Mister Saturday Night that occupied a dank trench between house and techno. But skip forward to his excellent 2015 EP Bowl Of Water and it’s a very different story—here we get lush instrumentation, broken beats and African chants. Around the same time, he released an album on 1080p, Holding New Cards, a record Jordan Rothlein affectionately described as “overstuffed, stylistically varied to the point of incongruity and often unsettlingly strange.” (This is to say nothing of his striking downtempo series, Pacific Tones.) Sure, anyone can mix it up in studio, but it’s rare for someone to pull it off with such style. Sano is from Okayama, Japan, and has kept a fairly low profile until now, so we’re pretty pleased to have this mix from him. He clearly wasn’t in the mood to mess about during its recording: RA.515 is 60 minutes of his own slamming (mostly unreleased) house tunes.”
