专辑简介
bulljun : bulljun and el barrio 2016 - p-vine (pcd-23814) CD 2006 JAPAN
http://www.bls-act.c
In the late 90抯, A.Y.B. Force was born out of a small record shop in Kyoto Japan. Out of this group came the neophyte upstart, Bulljun.
His first solo foray, Bulljun & El Barrio 2016, is neither Jazzanova nor West London Style but refreshingly organic in it抯 approach. Even though the album strays from his normal conventions, it is still very much Break Beat. Bulljun boldly combines carefully selected samples with sensitive beat phrases to make one of the hottest break beat albums ever.
Bulljun & El Barrio 2016 is the essence of hip hop music and Bulljun is one of a few who can deliver product with roots this strong in the genre, and it抯 no wonder. Soon after graduating high school, he moved to New York from Japan and lived in the back of a record shop. It was here that his love for urban music marinated and grew strong.
His sound is reminiscent of early Pharcyde, both moody and energetic. However, the most impressive aspect of it is the sense of analogue maintained by keeping the melodies mainly in the middle to low sound range. Many DJ抯 manage to duplicate this sound by careful sampling but his method maintains an original beat sensation right down to the whip of the finger marks. A nod to the originators of the craft is evident but whatever it may be called, the bloodline of hip hop culture runs strong in Bulljuns?work. No one can deny the importance of that. Especially in light of the commercialism that抯 plagued a genre so rich in urban culture.
