A FEW OF THE ITEMS WE WANT...
 | TOSHIO MATSUURA GROUP Loveplaydance | 8 Scenes From The
Floor (2024 UK/EU limited edition 8-track double album 2-LP pressed
on Black Vinyl, a welcome reissue of Toshio Matsuura’s 2017
cult classic Loveplaydance, issued for the first time as a complete
album. The project focuses on covers, presenting classics and
influential tracks in a new context. This new edition includes a cover of
the Rotary Connection’s classic "Black Gold of the Sun'' featuring
Afro-Cuban singer Daymé Arocena and her prodigious Havana-based
players, as well as the high energy re-lick of Byron Morris and Unity’s
‘Kitty Bey’, a classic from Gilles Peterson’s seminal afternoon session
at Dingwalls in the 1990s; neither included on the original vinyl LP.
Picture sleeve, factory sealed. Highly recommended)
Tracklisting: On Loveplaydance, legendary Tokyo DJ and producer Toshio Matsuura charted a new direction by casting musical cornerstones in a fresh light.
The Toshio Matsuura Group features Tom Skinner (drummer for Smile, Sons of Kemet, amongst others) as its musical director, as well as some of the UK’s most exciting jazz-influenced musicians. Drawing on years of surveying and curating different corners of music, Matsuura deftly combined this talented pool of players into one singular, wide-ranging album.
A co-founder of Japan’s United Future Organisation (aka U.F.O.), this record sees Matsuura reconnect with longstanding friend and collaborator Gilles Peterson. Releasing the album via Brownswood Recordings in the UK, it’s a continuation of a relationship which started as a bridge between London’s then-blossoming jazz scene and Tokyo’s new musical vanguard of the early ‘90s. This album continues that two-way dialogue between Japan and the UK.
The scope of the music reflects the breadth of Matsuura’s interests; It ranges from Bugges Wesseltoft’s Detroit-influenced, dancefloor-minded jazz, stretched out into a more meditative contemplation, to Flying Lotus’ LA-rooted, Brainfeeder beatmaking, translated from laptop-to-live, given a new, equally idiosyncratic lease of life. Elsewhere, Carl Craig’s iconic ‘At Les’ is taken in a looser direction, the overtones of euphoria cast in a different hue.
They’re touchpoints which hint at interests in the different, diffuse corners of electronic music, and how they connect to jazz and improvisation. Featuring an all star line up of some of the best players London has to offer, line up includes Nubya Garcia, Yazz Ahmed, Yussef Dayes and more.
