massive (!) act from japan. must have for
jazz-bossa-latin-house-not-house fans out there. by the way,
although track 1 has been spread out through many compilations,
track 2 is an exclusive, never released before one. check it out.
"the two brothers shuya okino and yoshihiro okino are kyoto jazz
massive. they are well-known djs, producers, club-runners and
remixers not only in japan. their future jazz blend of jazz, bossa,
latin and house is not a trainspotting one, they are definitely the
ones of the pioneers and originators in japan since the late
eighties. for example the club-night "kyoto jazz massive" is one
real legend! their regular club-nights in tokyo, osaka and kyoto
exist since the early nineties, and their concept of playing old
and new full spectrum sets was and still is a similar concept to
regular jazz-orientated club-nights like the mojo-club (hamburg),
bar rhumba, the old talking loud days @ dingwalls (london), or into
somethin' (munich). anyway, every worldÆs famous jazz-not-jazz dj
has played at one of the three okino-brothers club-nights in japan.
of course, they are famous djs as well, who have djed all over
europe and north america.
shuya, the older one of the brothers, used to be the creative
director of mondo grosso, monday michiru and many other japanese
acts. shuya has also another project called cosmic village.
yoshihiro is an addicted record collector, like many other compost
artists, and he has a great collection of latin and brazil records,
as well as he owns a record shop called especial records in osaka,
japan. yoshihiro is going to start an own label in year 2000.
"eclipse" is a fantastic powerful, but slick jazz-journey, a
perfect club record as well as one you may like to listen to if
you'll be at the lunatic asylum or at the dark side of the moon
(hm, just joking!) it's a tune, which will enchant you.
"silent messenger" is piano massive, it reflects all the rich
blends of jazz and latin roots, which are the main part in the life
of the okino brothers. it is still a dance-track, doesn't matter if
you let your mind dancing or your body moving." -
