Nujabes





As a producer I was always looking for old obscure records for sampling. When I talked with another producer about sampling, he told me that I should look for Japanese Soul and Jazz. He also recommend me about one of the best Japanese hiphop producer and DJ who recorded under the name Nujabes (new-jah-bes). Nujabes was known around the world for his jazz-infused hip hop beats with a melancholy, nostalgic undertone. 

On February 26, 2010, Nujabes was involved in a traffic accident upon exiting the Shuto Expressway late at night. He died at a hospital after failed efforts to revive him. He was 36 years old. I really want to share his music. May his soul rest in peace and let heaven listen to his music now.
