Bulljun - Bulljun & El Barrio 2016 [2006]

Bulljun is a Japanese producer, who likes Drum Break & Fried Chiken. This is also a dope instrumental album. A pretty sweet mix of beats, funky samples, and Latin elements -- all mixed together with almost a Tru Thoughts or Melting Pot Music sort of approach! The groove here is extremely upbeat and joyous -- and most tracks step around in hard funky midtempo rhythms -- assembled in the studio, but coming off with a nice sense of liveness in the way the tunes unfold! Bits of mixing further the more organic nature of the set -- and despite the programming of the rhythms, the overall grooves are plenty pleasing.
