Kyoto Jazz Massive & Especial Records presents Essence of Especial[2006]

Link 2

This one took me by surprise. Since it was compiled by Kyoto Jazz Massive, I knew I had to at least check it out and that faith was repaid. The insignias on the cover are hint to the label if you're into collecting 12" cuts from Hajime Yoshizawa or Sleep Walker; this is a compilation of tunes from that label - some of these tracks making rare or first appearances on cd format.A real treat is Bakura's "Empty Faces", loaded with neat effects and real great beats and production. I still dig the classic "Vera Cruz" but this is an awesome tribute. Then you've got a KJM Remix to Masa Collective's "Love is Everywhere". KJM are some of the masters of remixes and percussion rhythms and it shows in this one.


This is fantastic compilation and I recommend it.
