Percussionist Takashi Nakazato is well known for his work with Jazztronik and Kyoto Jazz Massive and is now back on Ten Lovers Music with a stunning new Japanese Latin Jazz EP. The Takashi Nakazato Set are the following musicians featuring over the four tracks;

Willy Calderon (Timbales), Yu Hagiwara (Alto Sax/Soprano Sax), Kei Ishi (Baby Bass), Miwa Kashima (Rhodes/Piano), Ryo Kawasaki (Electric Bass/Double Bass), Takahiro Miyazaki (Tenor Sax), Oli Savill (Congas), Ayumi Suzuki (Vibraphone/Marimba), Mitsuru Tanaka (Trumpet), Hayato Yamazaki (Drums) and of course Takashi Nakazato himself (Batá Drums, Cheqere, Cowbell, Claves, Wind Chime, Chaworó, Congas, Bongo, Catá, Iyá, Vibra Slap, Cymbal).

The EP was mixed by Eiji Hirano at Studio Happiness in Japan and mastered by Jose Rico in Madrid, Spain. All four tracks are quality pieces of music in their own right and we were more than happy to commit this to vinyl.

The Mechanical Man is the moniker, behind it there is Nicola Altieri, he is the dj and neapolitan producer, grade 82.
The Mechanical  Man plays with a tamped sound like forced in a room.
he playsold tapes, dirty hot, slow but dense.
He puts the roots in Detroit, Chicago and Philadelphia, enriching his knowledge of all these places: the groove.
Unknowingly his live recall the stifling African warmth where the groove was born, the unmistakable smell of Harlem, the excitement of those sites of Broadway where it all started, the pressure of the first ballrooms in which everything was possible and everything in flux.
The Mechanical Man sound leave you dazed and confused,as if you were coming out of a super speed from the title:
"The Post-Club”
