Curated by renowned Japanese DJ and tastemaker DJ Notoya, Funk Tide: Tokyo Jazz-Funk From Electric Bird 1978-87 explores a vibrant era of jazz-fusion from Tokyo’s influential Electric Bird label. Featuring standout artists like Yasuaki Shimizu, Toshiyuki Honda, and Mikio Masuda, this compilation shines a light on the cross-cultural sonic exchanges between Japanese and American musicians during a groundbreaking decade.
With most tracks making their international debut outside of Japan, Funk Tide offers a fresh insight into the evolution of Japanese jazz-funk. Expertly assembled by DJ Notoya and presented by Wewantsounds, this album is a showcase of dynamic grooves, soulful melodies, and exciting collaborations, capturing the innovative spirit of late-70s and 80s Tokyo.
