Samplefiends rejoice! Magical Mystery Mix have uploaded the second volume of their 70s Japanese Jazz Mix on YouTube and it’s a stonker. There are only 10 tracks on this but each one is packed with jazz goodness from a great transition period in jazz. What’s more, it comes from the Far East, where Western music goes to get that glow up and that can only mean one thing: SAMPLES, BABY!
Stream it below and peep the tracklist underneath.
