Release Notes:
More than just "works" from Sleep Walker -- a
collection of singles, remixes, and new tracks --
all representing some of the best work from this
ultra-hip club jazz combo! As with their full
albums, the style here is jazz-based at the outset
-- played in a classic mode that has plenty of
echoes of Impulse Records during the Coltrane
generation -- but forged into a tighter, leaner
groove for the 21st Century -- a mode that's
sometimes rhythmic and aimed at the dancefloor, yet
which never loses any sense of depth or creativity
from a jazz perspective! Saxophonist Masato
Nakamura contributes some incredibly great tenor
and soprano work to the tunes -- and Hajimi
Yoshizawa's modal piano lines pulsate tremendously
throughout. A few cuts are remixes, but still very
much embody the Sleep Walker sound -- with new
instrumentation, as the group makes a live jazz
take on the tracks they're supposedly remixing!
