Created by industry legend, MMO Music Group founder and true godfather of karaoke (but that’s another story) Irv Kratka alongside producer Eric Kriss, Inner City Records was formed in 1976. During its decade or so in existence, the label put together a formidable catalogue of jazz music and was voted Record Label Of The Year in 1979 by the International Jazz Critics Poll. As well as ‘classic jazz’, the label also gave a platform to more avant-garde material and dabbled in the emerging ‘jazz fusion’ sounds of the day.
Fondly remembered by jazz lovers everywhere, the label boasts a particularly fervent fan-base in London, where many of its releases found favour in the underground dance clubs of Soho and Convent Garden. Fittingly enough, London DJ and tastemaker Kev Beadle is the man chosen to put together this very special compilation of Inner City’s finest moments. Having previously curated projects for labels such as Blue Note and Cadet, Kev has dug deep in the crates to emerge with this gem of an album.
From the soaring vocals of the jazz-fusion classic ‘The Other World’ by Judy Roberts to the irrepressible dance-floor fire of Eddie Jefferson’s ‘Jeannine’, ‘The Best Of Inner City Records’ serves as a wonderful and eclectic introduction to a label which is rightly remembered with a level of affection which borders on reverence.

Following on from the much-loved 3rd volume of his Beats Installments series last year, the legendary Tokyo based Jazzy Sport label are proud to be sharing the 4th installment of DJ Mitsu The Beats’ seminal collection.

Kicking off with the heavy cosmic funk groove of “sweep”, DJ Mitsu The Beats takes us through a planetary hybrid journey of electric funk, hip hop, jazz, fusion and dub. Some of the stand out tracks include the catchy jazzy drumbreak and extra-think bassline mix-up of “grit”, the Latin American leaning electric piano work-out of” pax” and the summer Weather Report synth fusion of “beaming”, in a collection of jams that knock and lull at equal measures in a perfect balance.

An essential selection from an internationally acclaimed Japanese artist and DJ now well into the second decade of his career; these lush, funky yet mellow instrumentals are just as perfect a soundtrack for summer-daydreaming head high winter-night strolls through the bustling neon-lit streets of Tokyo as they are for end of year hazy lit gatherings.


フェンダーローズをテーマにした前作『Beat Installments Vol.3  - Rhodes Special - 』から約１年。DJ Mitsu The Beatsによるビート・インストゥルメンタル・シリーズの第４弾となる待望のニューアルバム『Beat Installments vol.4 』が遂にリリース！！

 本作の幕開けを飾るのは、ブラック・コズミック・ファンク・ムードの「sweep 」。この１曲から聞き取る事ができる、エレクトリック・ファンク、ヒップホップ、ダブの独創的なハイブリッドに、のっけから釘付けにさせられる。そして続く2曲目「grit」では、耳を奪うドラムブレイク、ジャズ的な鍵盤のダブワイズな響き、極太のベースラインが現れ、リスナーの鼓膜と身体を立体的に揺らしていく。 更にはWeather Reportを引き寄せたかの様なシンセの揺らぎが心地よいフュージョン・コズミックな「beaming 」、南米的な哀愁を携えた心地よいエレピがエフェクティヴなビートに踊る「pax」、そしてフリーフォームなダンス・ジャズ・アンサンブルが繰り広げられる「bop」、ベリンバウとダブ/エレクトロの奇妙な融合が展開される「frantic 」と、強烈な存在感を放つ楽曲達が、DJ Mixの様なグルーヴ感とムード/ストーリーで紡がれていく。
　 
ジャズをはじめとするブラック・ルーツミュージックからのインスピレーション、そしてダブをも呑み込みヒップホップを軸にビートサイエンス。更なるかつ進化と深化を魅せつけるMitsu the Beatsの魅惑の音楽世界がここに集約！

MISHOO THE DRUMKIT 

Rwanda, the land of the thousand hills is the birthplace of MC/Producer Mishoo the Drumkit who is releasing his first EP as a solo artist these days.

Born Michael Rugamba Negele, to a Rwandan mother and German father in Kigali, Mishoo was first exposed to African music by artists such as Pepe Kallé and Fela Kuti. It wasn’t until his family moved to Tübingen, Germany that he got into hiphop. He began writing poems at fourteen which turned into penning rap lyrics shortly after, influenced by the likes of HeavyD, Common and Wu Tang Clan’s “Enter the 36 Chambers” LP.

Little time after that, in 1998 he founded the group A-Scholars with DJ Madsen and Producer JP aka Kutty Sark, which would eventually result in the production of the album “Mastermind” around 2002, a collection of soulful, jazzy beats and personal storytelling raps. The production allowed for Mishoo to develop his skills as both an MC and songwriter providing smooth vocals carried by his low voice. Around that time he also co-founded a weekly hiphop event in his hometown Tübingen along DJ Sebastian Pohlmann thus providing a new forum for the local hiphop scene and helping local artists to connect. One notable result is another project of Mishoo’s – “The Sagitarians”, a collaboration of his with producer Jewelz. In 2006 he realized an idea he’d long had, namely forming a live band to perform A-Scholars material with instruments being heavily influenced by the type of sound of the Soulquarians or Roy Hargrove. 

When moving away from Tübingen for studies, Mishoo concentrated on beatmaking and production but stayed busy as an MC collaborating with plenty different producers from all over the world, some of whom he’d only connected with through MySpace and other music networks much like how “The Foreign Exchange” LP came together, logically one of Mishoo’s favorite albums.

Coming back to the basic idea, “Born in the Land of a Thousand Hills”, as the title of his new EP reads, is very much a documentary of the path Mishoo the Drumkit has traveled as an artist and a person as he mostly draws from his own life experiences, incorporating his growing up in both Africa and Europe, his travels or people close to him in his music.
“Born in the Land of a Thousand Hills” features an array of young artists that crossed Mishoo’s path over the years, such as producers Comfort Fit, Portformat, Hubert Daviz, Elaquent, Duktus, Swede:art, Drumatic, and MCs/vocalists Dutchmassive, Mr. Nnaji and Shuanise with DJs Madsen and Mawdee  contributing cuts and scratches.

The sound is truly soulful, yet with an often electronic approach inspired by the distinct Detroit sound of producers like J Dilla and Karriem Riggins; …however every track has a certain abstract twist to it while never forgetting its Hip Hop roots – Mishoo calls it ‘electro soul’.

“Born in the Land of a Thousand Hills” will be available at www.mishoothedrumkit.com. Release date is the 4th of January.
