A man who needs little introduction in pure record loving circles, Norio Sato is the force behind Rare Groove record store in Osaka. Norio's dedication to music of almost all genres is deep and methodically insightful, his mixes have been inspiring references to us at Sound Metaphors for a while now, so to be able to share this one is a proper delicacy for us. 

In his words: "This time, I made a mix of my friend's tracks from Japan (Boogie, house and Nu disco ... etc) and a little bit of 90's and 2000's Japanese obscure breakbeats tracks.
I hope you like it."

On top of that, his generosity has gone as far as offering us a detailed track list and short description for each track with links to find the record...proper record store owner academic approach to sharing music - big thanks to Norio for this one <3 <3 <3

Here he collects a few of his current underground favourites together for a Juno Daily – In The Mix session.

Kyiv born and Prague based music producer, dj and audio performer, Andriy K. transfers you into his listening session. 

“This show it's a one hour live recording that will take you to the experimental forms of dub, idm and downtempo, mixed with electro-acoustic jams, vocals and organic textures.  

As of last year, I’ve been investigating and researching ecological problems and especially the ecological catastrophe in my original country - Ukraine.  

“Archivated” in abstract audio memories, this record is a filter between the reality and dreamy thoughts, not to cry, but to fly.”

Bringing the far eastern experience to her DJ sets, Casper is a sound of the times. Blending bass music with techno and implementing experimental, ambient and downtempo genres too, Casper’s sets have a unique way of careening into other styles while remaining resolutely focused, but not restricted to, just the club.
