Chizawa Q Unveils Pioneering ‘Xenoverse’ Album

In a pivotal moment for the music industry, it’s rare to see an artist emerge with the power to redefine boundaries. Chizawa Q, has crafted a forward-thinking collection that proudly honours foundational influences while pushing into new sonic territory. His debut album on the powerhouse label R&S Records ‘Xenoverse’ is set for release November 22, 2024.

Born in Yokohama, Japan, Chizawa Q remains deeply rooted in his homeland, recording this full-length project across from Tokyo Bay.Following the success of two lead singles: “Beluga” (October 4) and “Black Nebula” (October 25) Xenoverse channels the legacy of Detroit techno giants like Underground Resistance, Kenny Larkin, and Carl Craig, blended with European jazz techno innovators such as Dave Angel and Vince Watson. 

Chizawa describes his album as “a soundtrack to a universe not yet born – a sci-fi score stirring memories of a world we’ve never known. Being on R&S Records, a label with a legacy of showcasing Japanese artists like Ken Ishii, is a personal milestone.” 

With contributions from Masaki Sakamoto, Kowalewski, and Dan Samsa, as well as a remix by Tokyo drum ‘n’ bass icon Makoto Shimizu, Xenoverse spans deep, driving techno and intricate electronica, creating a ten-track journey that blends jazz and abstract beat science for a unique, immersive experience. His sound has garnered significant support from influential figures across the scene, including Laurent Garnier, Dave Clarke, Josh Wink, Ben Sims, Dave Angel, Ramon Tapia, Dino Lenny, M.A.N.D.Y., CJ Bolland, LTJ Bukem and plays on BBC Radio.

Xenoverse is available on R&S Records on November 22, 2024, promising to be a standout release for electronic music fans worldwide.
