KaNa, also known as 'Kana Ijuin', is a Japanense electronic music producer and DJ hailing from Yokohama.

She's strongly influenced by 80s Hi-NRG, Disco music, and 1980s Japanese POP as well as videogame music of that time period, which allows her to maintain a music style that echoes the sounds of that era when creating her own tracks.

She's affiliated with the Japanese circle "Otographic Music," renowned for releasing high-quality and innovative tracks by Japanese artists. Well-known for remixing tracks of label mates such as Nhato, Hiroyuki Oda, Shingo Nakamura, and KIWAMU, she's established a reputation for delivering high-quality and creative music.

She's currently engaged in music production focused on club music, both domestically and internationally. The distinctive features of KaNa's sound include catchy and happy melodies, ethereal harmonies, and the fusion of percussive rhythm tracks.

Her music can be described as "KaNa Sound", which is the exquisitely crafted blending of these elements, creating a music style that fuses catchy and happy melody lines, fantastic harmonies, unique chord progression, percussive sound, and bounce beat like a traditional house/disco music style, often leaving a unique impression that transcends genres for the listener.

Some of KaNa's notable works include "Flower of Snow" and "Uluru". One listen to these tracks is more than enough to immediately understand what "KaNa Sound" really is.
