Chillhop Music is proud to present the next chapter in our global series: Timezones Japan. This compilation marks Chillhop’s second Timezones installment of 2025, following the debut Nigeria edition, which celebrated Nigeria’s rich instrumental music scene.

At the core of Timezones Japan lies a subtle yet meaningful tribute to the legacy of legendary beatmaker Nujabes, who continues to inspire producers and listeners around the world, ourselves included. Sampling has driven instrumental hip hop in Japan for over two decades now, and to honor that, we invited four acclaimed Japanese composers to craft original samples, which then became the foundation for a lineup of 20 celebrated beatmakers from Japan and beyond.

To ensure Timezones Japan authentically captures the country’s instrumental hip hop culture, we collaborated with music creative and label owner Takumi Koizumi as a cultural advisor. The composers we worked with are equally integral to the project’s sound: multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Naho Kinama, guitarist and producer Yutaka Hirasaka, saxophonist and flautist Yuichiro Kato, and pianist Noriko Kose, whose piece “I Miss You” was famously sampled in Nujabes’ iconic “Reflection Eternal.”

Timezones Japan is a love letter to Japanese instrumental hip-hop, filled with countless gems waiting to be discovered. Japanese icons such as FK, DJ Mitsu The Beats, TSUTCHIE, and DJ Ryow a.k.a. Smooth Current deliver captivating beats, joined by acclaimed international artists including Freddie Joachim (J. Cole, Joey Bada$$), Mecca:83 (Tom Misch, Gallant), FloFilz (MF DOOM, Biig Piig), and The Deli, alongside Chillhop favorites Psalm Trees and Birocratic.

TRACK 1 of 25
Its been a few years since the last installment of  Nexma5. 
This year I'll be doing an Advent calendar showcasing everything I've been working on for the past year.

This track started as an idea exploring darker tones and more dynamic sounds, which eventually grew into the outro for my Thirst for Revenge remix. 

Stay tuned for tomorrow's drop...

NEXU5 - QUENCHED

TRACK 3 of 25
This track is a bit of a Frankenstein. Sometimes when writing tracks its better to leave the intro as an after thought if your mind is racing for ideas on the drop, and then other times you just can't seem to write a drop for a cool intro you've made. You can often find connections between totally separate ideas and do some surgery to put them together.

NEXU5 - ONCE AGAIN

TRACK 4 of 25
Now this is where things start to get a bit weird. Next week I will be showcasing some more experimental songs that fuse multiple BPM's and time signatures together, some easy to follow, some not so much. 

ALL OUTTA SMOKE was a combination of my usual dubstep style and experiments I'd run since I began producing in 2011. This song keeps things simple to train your ears to it, keep an ear out for the drum patterns and you'll get a taste of what's to come.

ALSO THANKYOU ALL FOR THE SUPPORT OVER THE YEARS - HAPPY 19K

TRACK 5 of 25
Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer, incredible cinematography and quite a difficult moment in history. It was a stand out movie for me in 2023 but the element that struck me the most was the soundtrack and it inspired me to focus more on things like melody, pacing and spectacle.

After watching a breakdown of how Ludwig Göransson wrote the famous piece "Can you hear the music" I took the central idea of ascending and descending scales and gave my own spin on it. But of course I had to make it CRUUUUUUUD

NEXU5 - CRUDENHEIMER

TRACK 6 OF 25
R28D is one of those tunes that I seem to not help myself opening the stems of every year and making a new version with more of what I've learnt. Had fun with this one, especially the second drop. 

Shouts to Benzmixer on the OG timeless tune.
