Masabumi Kikuchi - All Night, All Right, Off White Boogie Band

Masabumi Kikuchi ‎– All Night, All Right Off White Boogie Band can't believe a copy popped up on discogs finally. There will probably be a flood of them now that I found it but I’m happy to be adding this to my hoard.

I’m also a satisfied customer.

No problem. I am on the west coast. Just let me know. I'm happy to help.

I doubt the drop ship it. My guess if you have an order waiting they may contact you about adding it with a pending order. They're pretty good about stuff like that.

Wow, I never knew you could pre-order from Da Bastids

I can do it if you'd like. I got my bachelors in audio production/technology and enjoy transferring and audio restoration. PM if you'd like me to do it. Also have a record doctor to clean it.

I wish I could find a reasonably priced source for Old Heaven Books releases in the US. now playing: Koralle - Fonografle a producer from Bologna, with heavy jazz influences as does much of the releases from the German, Melting Pot Music.

notes are excellent

The cd sound is as expected for something recorded of that time. Nothing impressive and I doubt much that can be done about it. Oden is the weakest link in my opinion and far to forward in the mix, to the point I found it distracting. Only gave it one spin, may grow on me with more listens but I didn’t find it particularly memorable.

my copy arrived today

Just out of curiosity, how did this job offer come about? Did they find you or did you find them?

I agree tend to agree its not great but I’ve gotten used to it. If I didn’t have an iPhone and MacBook I could see using Spotify over it. Apples search function, which shouldn’t be difficult seems to be spotty, or albums are labeled weird and impossible to find. Google and hitting the Apple Music link has proven best results, which should not be the case. Amazon is the worst IMO. Why the have incomplete albums I have no idea.

I hated the sound of the CD set. I find it hard to listen to, or did, may be time to pull it out and listen to it on my new CD player.

Not really sure I consider telling people what they could have had but can no longer have as caring about the store front. It not really useful business information to tell someone they can't have something.

Got my copy today, has the trademark ECM slipcase, interesting that it was apart of the packaging. May be a couple days until I get to spin it but looking forward to it.

I got my second Moderna shot yesterday. It kicked my ass today. Fatigue and body aches but it appears it’s behind me after multiple naps. Glad to be vaccinated. Going on vacation in August and anticipate I’ll still be wearing a mask.

Looks to be out March 20th in Japan, April 16th or so everywhere else. The Japan release appears to be vinyl and CD everywhere else. This is on the Redhook label from from ECM prodcuer Sun Chung. Standards reinterpreted by Poo. Oddly enough I don't hear any voicing in the video.

First Modern scheduled for tomorrow morning. Only crappy part for me is I have to drive from Long Beach to the valley to get it.

Was it an older title?

My wife had similar symptoms yesterday, she got the first moderna shot on Friday. We’ll see how she feels today.

J-Dilla exactly. I actually buy tapes mainly because I rebuilt a tape deck I got off Craigslist and like filling up my rack on the wall. Plus you still get to download them and tapes are cheap. The “genre” is a bit fractured on Bandcamp. It might be tagged instrumental hip hop, beat tape, beattape, etc. it’s fun to discover new sounds. Really like it if they have soul sampling with their beat.

I got a bunch of beat tapes. I honestly haven't been listening to much jazz recently because I've been studying a lot for work. And I usually go through a period of a month or so where I almost exclusively listen to beat tapes. ShunGu - Exile Dreams Free Tillman - Black Free Tillman - Pink Koreatown Oddity - When Pig Fly (Pig Tape from the Chinese New Years series) Saint James - F.O.O.L. Mic Legg - Getobox Vol.2 Mic Legg - Chill Yard 2 Beatgist - Abstract Flavors and then I just splurged a little more for a couple tapes from Deep of 2 Hungry Bros. Deep - What You Leave Behind (CTI parody cover art) Deep - Bushwick Beatfeed
