1.
Natsuki Tamura – trumpet
Christian Pruvost - trumpet
Satoko Fujii – piano
Peter Orins– drums
Formed only seven months before their remarkable debut recording Rafale, Kaze brings together trumpeter Natsuki Tamura and pianist Satoko Fujii, two of Japan's foremost improviser-composers, with trumpeter Christian Pruvost and drummer Peter Orins from the French improvisers collective, Muzzix.
The members of this international quartet share an insatiable appetite for sonic experimentation, boundless energy and enthusiasm, and the disciplined intelligence of accomplished spontaneous composers. Melodic, abstract, mysterious, beautiful, and confrontational, Kaze plays free jazz at its most creative and powerful.
2. Kaze debuted as a solo artist from the record label D-topia with the digital single "Zurukare" in 2011, in addition to featuring on several compilation albums.
3. Kevin “Kaze” Thomas is a versatile artist-producer who captures the spirit of groundbreakers like Run-DMC, Snoop Dog, and Wu-Tang Clan to promote an on-going, innovative hip-hop culture. Hailing from northern Virginia and eastern North Carolina, Kaze grew up in the 80’s memorizing his big sister’s mix tapes of hip-hop legends to lift himself out of an oppressive country lifestyle. As a student in communications at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, Kaze helped to create Hip-Hop Nation, an on-campus organization fostering the growth of local emcees, poets, DJs, dancers, and graffiti artists. His mission gained national attention in 2001 when Kaze was tapped to co-create, produce, and host the nationally syndicated television program titled Hip-Hop Nation: Notes from the Underground. The show captured the immensity of the culture’s influence with viewers in over a hundred markets and linked Kaze’s name with a movement of international interest.
Kaze’s production experiences led to the establishment of his own record label, Soul Dojo, Inc. The initial offering under that label is his Spirit of ’94, a tribute to the legends of hip-hop featuring 15 tracks he both wrote and produced. Ingenuity and originality characterize his rhymes, while his words promote political consciousness, address personal trials, and celebrate the passion of hip-hop. The March 2003 release of Spirit of ‘94 set the standard for the label, claiming much critical acclaim and winning fans across the state. After selling thousands of copies independently, both on the streets and through mom and pop record stores, Spirit of ’94 was picked up by BCD Global Distribution in October of 2003 for placement into Transworld operated record stores such as FYE. The single, “50/50 Amp”, has received airplay on college and commercial radio stations across the country, charting with Billboard and with CMJ. Kaze peaked at number 11 on the Rap Network in March of 2004, a chart tabulated by spins from the tastemakers of college radio.
Kaze’s April 2004 sophomore effort, titled Enemy of the State, is a mixtape which features a collection of tracks by North Carolina’s finest hip-hop artists and producers. With notable appearances by Nature and 9th Wonder among others, Kaze uses the album as a platform for voicing his desire to make it to the top of the industry and chronicles his success and struggle thus far. Kaze’s first single from Enemy of the State titled “On” is due to grow on the strength of his debut and aims for an even greater audience.
Kaze has become one of the most talked about and recognizable figures in the North Carolina music scene. With strong personality and a unique style, he reigns as a tested mic battle champion and regularly lights up stages at nationally known venues across the Southeast including the Smith Center, Gusman Theater, Cat’s Cradle, Echo Lounge, Local 506, Apache Cafe, and The Brewery. He has opened for such artists as Nas, Jurassic 5, KRS-One Dead Prez, The Arsonists, Swollen Members, and Camp Lo. He also can be heard working the crowds for Soul Dojo’s premier open mic night, Microphone Mondays, at Rolling Stone Magazine’s favorite Chapel Hill music venue, the Local 506.
4. Cristian, a.k.a Kaze is a rapper from Cartagena, Spain. He released his first album, No Encajes, in 2016.

Kaze Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
どうしても終われない、嫌いになってよ...
彼はもうカレじゃないの分かってる
だけど着信で家を出る深夜0時
友達はみんな止めろって言うし
そう、あたしもそう思う。新しい恋したいよ
頭では分かっててもいつも心では泣いてる
「寂しい。」って絵文字なしのメール、
返事来ないし
ダメな自分とまた眠って
どうしても終われないもう無理だから
ねぇ、お願い嫌いだって言ってよ
いつまでも終われない
ただ幸せになりたいだけなのに
ちゃんと失恋させてよ
都合いい存在なのは分かってる
誰か知らない子と電話目の前でしてるし
私のじゃないピアスとかあるし
あぁ、大切にされてもいないのになんで
もう会わない電話も出ない
頭で繰り返してもずっと心では待ってる
彼だけは分かってくれるだからまた会いたくて
弱い自分をまた許して
どうしても終われない辛いだけなのに
あぁ、言えない。また今日も変われない
いつまでも終われない
ただ幸せになりたいだけなのに
どうしても終われないもう無理だから
ねぇ、お願い嫌いだって言ってよ
いつまでも終われない
ただ幸せになりたいだけなのに
ちゃんと失恋させてよ
もう辛いよ、終りにしたいよ
お願い No more pain
how can i be happy? 教えて
I wanna be your love
The lyrics to Kaze's song ズルカレ express a sense of desperation and longing for closure in a tumultuous romantic relationship. The singer is struggling with the idea that the relationship cannot seem to end, despite the pain and difficulty they are experiencing. They plead for it to be over, admitting that they have reached their limits and just want to move on. The repetition of the phrase "どうしても終われない" (can't end it no matter what) underscores the frustration and helplessness felt by the singer.
The lyrics also touch on the conflicting emotions of still caring for someone who is no longer the same person they once loved. Despite knowing in their head that it's time to let go, their heart continues to ache. The singer expresses a desire to find a new love and be happy, highlighting their inner turmoil and longing for a fresh start. The late-night phone calls and unanswered messages symbolize the unfulfilled attempts at communication and closure in the relationship.
The lyrics delve into the painful realization that the relationship has become toxic and one-sided. The singer recognizes the other person's disregard for their feelings, as evidenced by their actions with someone else and the lack of attention or care bestowed upon them. This unreciprocated love and lack of appreciation lead the singer to question why they continue to hold on to something that is causing them so much pain and heartache.
Ultimately, the lyrics convey a plea for the relationship to finally come to an end, so the singer can find happiness and peace. They express a desire to be free from the emotional turmoil and to be able to move forward in search of genuine love and fulfillment. The repeated requests for the relationship to end and the acknowledgment of the singer's own vulnerability and weakness add depth to the emotional complexity of the song. The yearning for closure and the hope for a new beginning shine through the lyrics, emphasizing the singer's longing for happiness and love.
