Tokyo DJ’s sonic memoir spanning two decades of life and music in Japan

Dive into the exhilarating era of Japan’s electronic dance music scene
from the mid ’80s to the mid ’90s with Japan Vibrations Vol. 1.
The hand-picked collection by DJ and musical storyteller Alex from Tokyopays
homage to the trailblazers and innovators who shaped the landscape.

Set for release this autumn, the compilation serves as a time capsule recording
a vibrant point in Japan’s modern music history. Likewise, a love letter
from someone who lived it.

11 newly remastered tracks spanning ambient, downtempo, dub, world beats, deep
house, new jazz, and techno. Together they showcase the creative ingenuity and
energy of a paradisiac era marked by a symbiotic fusion of international sounds
with distinctively Japanese influences.

Experience the vibrations of pioneers Haruomi Hosono, Ryuichi Sakamoto, and
Yasuaki Shimizu. Of culture-shaping forces Hiroshi Fujiwara, Kan Takagi, Susumu
Yokota, Silent Poets, Mondo Grosso and Kyoto Jazz Massive. And of new-generation
artists CMJK (C.T. Scan), Mind Design, Okihide, and Hiroshi Watanabe. The
evolution of a scene, a moment, presented with the progression of a DJ set.

Hi-fidelity remastering by sound engineer Isao Kumano (PHONON). License
coordination by Ken Hidaka, album artwork by Takehiko Kitahara. Photography by
Meisa Fujishiro and Beezer, and from Alex and friends’ personal
collections. Pressed by Mother Tongue Records. Distribution by Rush Hour.

Japan Vibrations Vol. 1 will transport listeners in time to energetic nights at
Japan’s legendary club venues and delight with a spirited journey of
musical discovery and reflection.
