Japanese experimental label AOI Future has announced the release of “PRLN” (Ver 1.2 & Ver 2.0), the latest single from NICTIA, an AI entity directed by Tokyo-based Contents Syncretist, Shugo Nozaki.
Following their previous work, “Metasónica,” NICTIA shifts gears into high-speed chaos. “PRLN” (pronounced Pero-rin, the Japanese onomatopoeia for licking) is a Liquid Drum & Bass track that sounds like a “Sugar Rush Error.”
About the Project:
NICTIA is an act of syncretism. Shugo Nozaki, a veteran creative with deep roots in 90s Tokyo club culture, treats AI not as a mere generator, but as a co-creation partner. By channeling the musical DNA of the rave era—from the chill-out room to the jungle floor—Nozaki orchestrates a new reality where human nostalgia meets the singularity. “PRLN” is the peak-time anthem of this digital symbiosis.
“PRLN” (Ver 1.2 & Ver 2.0) by NICTIA is out now on all streaming platforms.
