We're thrilled to welcome Shimpei Watanabe to the label as we continue to build on the Tokyo/Cologne connection. Bringing his versatile talent from Tokyo, he delivers three fresh tracks. This limited vinyl release opens with ‘No Cab Around Here’ an acid piece in true 303 style, enhanced by deep dub chords. A2 highlights Shimpei Watanabe's signature funky basslines and groovy drums, creating a lively atmosphere. On the flip, B1 introduces a smoother, Chicago-style groove adding a refreshing change of pace. The record’s finale features an energetic remix by Cologne's own Stikdorn - an analog dub techno jam that seamlessly aligns with the label's early releases. 

All Tracks written and produced: Shimpei Watanabe 
Remix Artist: Stikdorn
