A Japanese downtempo/chillout gem featuring a sweet, melting electric piano two-chord loop and masterful filter work that creates a “sound you could listen to forever”—a unique tribute and interpretation of “E2-E4”! “Inspiration From E2-E4,” produced by 〈SAL DISC〉—where Ogawa himself once worked—and featuring the core members Shinichi Ogawa and Chinatsu Masayama from the fluid-lineup band SUGAR PLANT, is now available as a vinyl single. The B-side features a track by DUB SQUAD from the same album, making this a deluxe reissue.

The latest release from 〈FOREST JAMS〉—a treasure trove for music lovers known for its rediscs of artists like Osamu Kitajima and Nami Hōdatsu! A long-awaited vinyl release—more than 20 years in the making—from the tribute album *E2-E4*, planned and produced by *SAL DISC* (a miraculous album featuring mixes by Smurf Boys, ROVO, BUFFALO DAUGHTER, and ∈Y∋)! “Just Be There” (sample 1)—where breakbeats lightly pulse to the rhythm of an electric piano loop, ultimately blending with layered, masterful guitar work to form a relaxed and mellow dance landscape—is a masterpiece that draws you in with its mesmerizing soundscape, showcasing the artistry of meticulously layered fine-tuning and effect processing. The B-side also features “E.D.E.N,” a tribute track produced by DUB SQUAD—comprising Koji Nakanishi, Taro Yamamoto, and Itsuki Masuko—which is equally exquisite, with deep, chill breakbeats where mystical chords harmonize with a rich, full-bodied bassline.
