Speedometer (JPN) - Private (2002)

Photobucket
(Toys Factory)

The second full-length album by this Japanese ensemble, Speedometer (not the UK Funk band) and as with their debut album "...Or Not" they continue to explore the limits of downtempo electronica. Seasoned with the occasional pinch of sweetly layered female vocals and turntablism, the result nudge the traditional downtempo envelope by combining elements of smooth jazz (as on "Walk"), and experimental electronica (as on "Wake Up Afternoon," with its Japanese talk-radio samples). Fans of Kruder & Dorfmeister and Zero 7 will feel at home with Private.
