"Tokyo-based Takuya Morita is one of the most promising young Japanese artists in the minimal techno scene. After releases on the Morr Music and CYMK labels, he is now debuting on Adjunct with his most uncompromising and powerful dance music to date. A single string pattern opens up 'Woman and Shadow,' its hypnotic summon is soon answered by syncopated bleepy patterns and staccato synth. Dark vocal samples permeate the scene, the bass warbles the floorboards, the cavalcade of rhythms soon turns its march into a gallop, a maddened late night ride of Takuya's wild stallions. Jeremy P. Caulfield catapults the original's sound particles into space and conducts their fall into a gracious dance of echoing and reverberating beauty. 'Broken Memory' is another fundamental parable in the Book of The Morita Law of Techno. The high priest reads the Proverbs, his chimes of trance hypnotize the crowds through an infinite vertigo of magnetizing dance rhythms. A serious effort for serious holiday celebrations."

"Takuya Morita (25 years old) is a Japanese producer from Tokyo who recently released 2 first EPs on the well known labels Morris Audio and also the Spanish home label of Alex Under CYMK. He really demonstrated his taste for a minimal syncopated style in the same time weird with cut of voices and click sounds and always keeping a groovy side. He also usually uses subtle minimal melodies which definitely make his own style, and it's for sure with a great enthusiasm we release here an exciting EP with 4 original tracks from Takuya. Let's start with 'Funky Bounce': a minimal bleepy house track groovy and deep, it evolves with the add of quirky sounds cut of voices and sweet melody... typical Takuya style: deep and weird, enjoy! On 'Old Bazaar': this track is more weird and 'catchy' with clicky sounds cut of voices and a real dancefloor orientation... bumpy and melodic! 'Paper Flute' is a very groovy tune with an insistent melody synth and bassline. Takuya shows here his talent of using a lot of bleepy sounds and keeping the same groove. Also, the 'Waseda' hooligan is more straight and tecky with heady melody which evolves during all the track and an insistent synth bassline...always bleepy, melodic and so groovy!"
