Great set - thank you for these beautiful selections <3

...but what the hell...this is absolutely brilliant

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
