A compilation CD of all-original tracks by a lineup of seriously skilled Japanese artists, brought to you by ING RECORDINGS, the Tokyo underground house label that has steadily built up a run of 12-inch releases. Wow — this one got me! The sample CD sounded so good that I ended up playing it through about five times; every single track is superbly done! All that talk that always trails Japanese artists — "they've caught up to overseas standards," "they could hold their own abroad" — feels like a thing of the past here. This is simply cool music you can dance to! Highly recommended!! Participating artists: MOODMAN, KENTARO IWAKI, AKIO NAGASE, TIGER, BEATBLOCKS, LEROY & OLLIE feat. NO MILK, OWL, HIDEO KOBAYASHI, SUSUMU YOKOTA
