“14 Tracks - Destination: Tokyo!”

This selection features a contemporary pick of tracks written by, about or somehow evocative of Tokyo. From the fast-paced neon trails of Akiko Kiyama's Techno, through to the Nintendo beats of Disrupt and the widescreen vistas of the legendary Ryuichi Sakamoto, it's a multicoloured ode to a vibrant city filled with contrasts.

Take part! Leave a comment!

“Treasure....”

Our prayers were answered. 14 tracks at a knock down price like this and it's a no-brainer for me. I'm cancelling my Fabric and Rough Trade Album Club subscriptions - this is all I need. Music to treasure; bless you Boomkat, and all who sail in you.
