A return to K.O.L. Radio by Pascal Saraiva from France, known online as @Skalapin In September we heard Vol. 1 of his special mix which featured classic Jazz albums from the past, now in Vol.2 we’ll come up to the present, to hear some featured tunes from a variety of contemporary Japanese recording artists.
Kicking off with the Japanese instrument, jazz playing Karura Trio, and including the World Jazz style of Onuma Yousuke on guitar, and even into the Japanese club Jazz scene type sounds of DJ/Producers Matsuura Toshio and Okino Shuya, this selection of tracks shows that the Japanese jazz scene is as lively as ever, from labels such as Days of Delight, T5 Jazz, and Jazzy Sport.
