Suzuka Mizuta

Both of Suzuka’s parents are involved in the entertainment industry (her father is a talented multi-instrumentalist who has done studio recordings with many famous singers and songwriters, her mother is a popular television actress) so her emergence as a beat-making prodigy doesn’t come as a surprise to most. In actuality though, Suzuka spent most of her preteen years avoiding experimenting with music. She brushed off what little dabbling she did as nothing but a hobby, out of a need to be contrary to her family’s wishes. Meanwhile, her older sister Megumi grew more strikingly beautiful by the day and was always the center of attention wherever they went together. Living in the shadow of her parents’ prestigious names and Megumi’s rising star, she tried to convince herself that she as content to fly under the radar, knowing she could never measure up. In the end though, it was a song that she wrote, composed and produced as a birthday gift for her sister that helped sky-rocket her idol band to fame. Since then, Suzuka has stopped denying her innate talent for music and started producing tracks for a wide range of artists. After years of harboring resentment towards her family, she’s still getting used to receiving acclaim of her own, even if her work is mostly behind the scenes.
