Following 2023's "Apron Japan Vol.1," which spotlighted Japanese artists and earned a cult following, comes a new edition that widens the net to bring in brothers from across Asia! Highlights include DJ DREAMBOY's "Swing City," rubbing late-'80s NJS against his own brand of mellowness; ringleader STEVEN JULIEN's twisted electronic funk "Call Me"; and BENEDEK's "Keychanger," a house cut with a midnight mood and a hidden shine. A broad musical range tied together by a shared mellow sensibility — it never gets old on a full listen, yet still feels cohesive. Really hits the spot. (Original Japanese text by Akie)
