Self-described 'dirty monkey from Osaka Japan', OVe-NaXx (Isao Sano) is a masked maniac representing the new Nippon-ish Breakcore. Sci-fi sounds, industrio-post-apocalyptic beats mix with Death Metal guitar samples, distortion, speed-ragga and fat synth loops for brutal and berzerk performances and recordings. Osaka has already bred generations of noise, punk and hardcore artists in its industrial chaos and Sano is true to his roots - shards of noise cut through his meticulous productions with crystalline sharpness.

With intricate and idiosyncratic touches Sano builds up his hard-core Sample-Pop, subsuming every imaginable genre - Middle-Eastern, Country, Rock, Dub, traditional Japanese and J-Pop, video-game music - into frenzied distortion. -- transmediale

Previously seen at Bad Timing with DJ /Rupture and with Scoth Egg, Doddodo and others including local karaoke victims.
