Ryota Nozaki is active as a pianist, DJ, and composer. Jazztronik, which debuted in 1998 with Nozaki at its core, has recently expanded its scope to include composing music for dramas and films. Their unique sound, transcending classical, jazz, and club music, garners support from diverse audiences.

Their popularity extends beyond Japan, with invitations to international festivals in countries like the UK, USA, France, and Italy. Now, a best album is here, allowing listeners to enjoy their highly acclaimed live performances.

The album opens with a track composed during their previous live tour. It features a total of 12 songs, including highly anticipated new tracks and the globally hit, live-favorite "SAMURAI."

This best album can be seen as the culmination of Jazztronik's work to date. It's a fulfilling collection that will satisfy longtime fans and newcomers alike.
