About Cruisic
Cruisicは、トラックメイカー岩田幸也がマシンから発するエレクトロニックサウンドと、柿澤龍介のドラムをリアルタイムに融合させながら、ダンスミュージックとジャズの可能性を追究する人力エレクトロニカバンドである。 ブラジリアンフュージョンで有名な Azymuth "Jazz Carnival"を大胆なアレンジでカバーしたアナログ・シングルを2018年9月にリリースして以来、UKを中心したDJの様々なDJ Mix、ラジオ、JunoやMotion FMといったWebsiteで取り上げられオンエアーされるなど、特に海外で高評価を得ている。 大学時代のジャズサークルで知り合い、個々の音楽活動を経て2013年冬に結成。2017年より現在の二人編成で活動している。 岩田の持つ広範なエレクトロニック・ミュージックのバックグラウンドと、柿澤のポップス／ジャズフィールドでの経験を繋ぐことで、人による楽器演奏の即興性とエレクトロニック・ダンス・ミュージックのソリッドネスを融合させる。
