Jason on the album : 
"This is a snapshot of a fertile time in UK music, a time of independent artists, studios, labels  & distributors collaborating to do it themselves, sidestepping the majors to take their shot at the big time. It didn't always work out but they made a record and that's what counts."

This mixtape is inspired by Sonia Rosa's song Socorro Taro! (Help Me Taro!) (Taro is her son)from her album: Samba Amour. The album is produced by legendary Yuji Ohno, whom she met, after moving to Japan to pursue a career in music.
The mix of samba and easy-to-grasp Japanese melodies makes the song sound like it's made for Taro. I'm in love with these childish melodies.
