From Japan, Takaya releases a sublime EP through Leicester-based The Groove Stage. Originally coming to prominence as the man behind a series of very classy edits earlier in the decade he disappeared for a few years coming back with four groovy tracks, digged from the crates and flipped into his own deep & mellow sound.

Indebted to the spirit of Detroit, New York or Toronto, Street Edits EP is super strong collection of tracks packed with well chosen samples and beautifully crafted instrumentation. Materializing his influences on house music, and with early support from IG Culture, Pablo Valentino & Thatmanmonkz, Takaya’s EP is a stylish debut, available for purchase.
