Description
Experience the moment that J-reggae took Japan by storm with Tokyo Riddim 1976-1985. Reissued by Time Capsule, this groundbreaking collection features the fusion of commercial city pop style and a captivating backbeat, drawing comparisons to the emergence of Lovers Rock in the UK.
Although the development of Japanese reggae may not follow a linear path, one thing is certain: the indirect influence of styles can lead to beautifully strange and entirely new music. Originally released only in Japan, these tracks are a testament to the unique fusion of cultures and sounds within the world of reggae.
