With the mindset of being a full-stack creative and with the work ethic to match, Kazuki Hiratani, hailing from sunny Hawke's Bay, New Zealand, has been recording and releasing a consistent output of material. Whether he's taking the reigns and crafting music in his bedroom alone, in collaboration with friends around the world, or ripping up venues performing scorching guitar solos and electrifying alternative rock anthems with Say or Do, Kazuki has proven over and over again his diversity and adaptability in multiple genres. Kazuki has been hard at work writing and recording new music. The most recent of his recent endeavours includes the collaborative EP with Australian singer Cameron Rendell, "Broken Heart Syndrome" which tells the story of an individual's descent into isolation and misery after negative life experiences. He has also been an active session player and co-writer, having worked with fellow local Kiwi artists Tintd Official and Frankly on the 2025 single "Hold My Tongue" and a variety of music that will be released throughout 2026. He has also contributed scorching guitar solos on Titanosaur's 2023 sludge metal opus "Echoes" and Swedish experimental project Heitstrengning's debut album "This Vanishing Light" in late 2025.
