marc mac: ja-pan-ah

Francisco Espregueira

Marc Mac is back with the fourth and final piece of a series of short thematic EP’s that started in 2019 with AH-FREE-KA, followed by JA-MAYE-KA (2021) and BR-AZIL-AH (2022). Released by Omniverse Records, JA-PAN-AH is naturally under-pinned with jazz and funk textures and a hint of jungle in the subs, something that can be felt on "Kambei". 'Yasuke Soul" and "Tokyo Nightlife" feel like a head nod to Ryuichi Sakamoto. and Akiko Matsuura. This four-track is takes a journey form, so buckle up and get ready for a ride towards a cool and emotional paradise of rich instrumentation and unique stylistic approaches to Japanese melodies.

From Africa to Jamaica, Brazil and now Japan Marc Mac has explored the international fusion of rhythms that have been an influence on his style as one of the precursors of broken beat. This unique collection of EP’s can be checked in his Bandcamp page and the newly released JA-PAN-AH is available on vinyl. Don’t sleep on the masters that keep innovating a pushing boundaries.
