 review at Juno Kyoto Jazz Massive's Shuya gets the highly limited luxury release treatment from Weston's Mukatsuku. Amid the treats are some delicious beats, all exclusive to vinyl. You may already know the jittering, organic funk of both "Take A Look At Yourself" and "Love & Live" from the Root Soul version album on Village Again last year. However, Mukatsuku have coaxed an all new Root Soul Afrobeat version of the latter for this 12" and put it pride of place on the A-side. Complementing this, Weston and Rudy's Midnight Machine remix of "Still In Love" genuinely lives up to its Epic Strings tag, too. Languishing in dramatics but with full pomp reserved, it's yet another Mukatsuku masterpiece.
