This exciting new release offers 12 stunning Japanese jazz-funk and latin-jazz gems which fuse Japanese traditional musical instruments and traditional melodies. These recordings were produced during the 70's for Nippon Columbia by master composers and musicians of Japan's jazz and latin scene, including Kiyoshi Yamaya, Tadaaki Misago & Tokyo Cuban Boys, Kifu Mitsuhashi, Toshiyuki Miyama and more. It's original vinyl releases that these tracks featured on have become scarce and super rare for the Japanese collectors market and now these magnificent tracks are available outside of Japan for the first time on this killer compilation. The focus and selections made by MURO for this release is a continuation from his Wa Groove Mix "Nippon Breaks" released in 2020.

London based event, label & brand DIGGERS DOZEN is best known for it's marvellous live mix series, where record supremo's worldwide are curated by Maxwell Pastor, boss of DIGGERS DOZEN to select and play 12 of their most loved vinyl rarities. The first event began on the date 12.12.12. when Maxwell forged the concept of 12 DJ's each play 12 records on this significant date. From it's launch the music direction leaned more towards the less familiar sounds than the obvious and all vinyl selections to be strictly original pressings from the 60's through to the late 80's.
