This is a representative album released in 2002 by Kyoto Jazz Massive, a project by Shuya Okino and Yoshihiro Okino, on Compost Records. Centered around jazz, it traverses Broken Beat, Future Jazz, Deep House, Latin, and more, blending the rich texture of live performance with the robust groove of club music. It features tracks like "Mind Expansions," "Stargazer," and "Shine," showcasing fluent chord progressions, dynamic rhythms, and soulful vocals. This album is a significant work by Kyoto Jazz Massive that symbolizes the crossover/Future Jazz scene of its time, akin to Jazzanova and 4hero, and introduced Japanese club jazz to the world.
