Pacific Breeze 3: Japanese City Pop, AOR & Boogie 1975-1987 marks the latest chapter in the famed series and features holy grails plus under-the-radar rarities. The collection bursts at the seams to reveal some of the greatest Japanese tracks ever laid to tape, pushing towards the edge of City Pop to reveal glimmers of the next waves of styles to spring forth from the country’s creative minds. The appearance of Pizzicato Five hints at the emergence of Shibuya-kei, while the influence of hip hop and electro as an emerging global trend is also evident here through the prevalence of heavier programmed drum beats on tracks such as “Heartbeat” by Miho Fujiwara.
- 2xLP housed in a deluxe wide-spine jacket with full-color inner sleeves and custom die-cut OBI
- Cover art by renowned illustrator Hiroshi Nagai
- Newly remastered audio
