In early 1990s, Masanori Ikeda started his career as a DJ. After having
a weekend residency at the legendary club, Wag in London, he came back
to Japan and moved his base of activity to Tokyo. After that, he started
his production career. With his solo alias, Mansfield and other unit
names, he has released numerous albums and 12 Inch singles. His tracks
have been licensed to many compilations in Japan and abroad and have
received great critical acclaim. Also, as DJ Ikeda Masanori, he has
produced tons of remixes and many official mix CDs as well. He has
remixed popular club music artists such as Little Big Bee, Slowly as
well as pop singers like Kyoko Fukuda and his cross the board remix
works and quality of them, have received much praise.
Also, Masanori has produced mix CD series such as Play Room and Spin Out
which were cutting edge as if they read what was to come in the future
and they were popular enough to be charted in Oricon (Japan's main
popular chart) Album charts.
Recently, Masanori has been regularly DJing in the weekends at main
clubs in Japan as well as clubs around the world such as Russia,
Lithuania, Korea, etc., mixing across the board dance music, for
instance, obscure house, electro, and trancey disco.
In November this year, through the renowned Japanese label, Flower
Records, Masanori Ikeda is going to release as Masanori Ikeda, a 12 Inch
single of a cover of famed Ibiza Balaeric classic by William Pitt, City
Lights. And in Jan. 2008, he is planning to release a new style official
mix CD and new track as well. After going through a long history and
still making progress, Masanori Ikeda's activities needs to be checked
out indeed.
