Great price, great music, great album if you are new to Krush. Vinyl DJ Krush is how it’s supposed to be heard.

Fantastic Album. Wonderful 180 gram pressing

I have owned the CD and digital versions of this album for a while and I figured it would be nice to have the vinyl as well. Sounds GREAT.
I only wish MORE of the other older albums were still in print and available on vinyl.

Was at a friends house drinking and chilling and I heard the Tsugaru Jyamisen for track 13, Beyond Raging Waves. Bought this album for this song but was suprised at how most of the songs were good. I know have about 6 of his albums. Also check out 'Zen' and if you like the sounds of the trumpet, check Ki-Oku for some nice turntable and trumpet sounds.

z funk

honestly... some of Krush's best work

Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2004

(i would actually give this album about 4.6 stars simply because of the absence of japanese rap which really worked well on message). Ive been a Krush fan for a really long time. I actually didn't start buying his cd's until fairly recently, but i got into him from various ninja tune comps. I have all his official, US releases. The only one i dont have is strictly turntablized which is damn near impossible to find. ANYWAYS, I just got Jaku and it really is probably my favorite Krush cd. It seems like every one of his cds are very different from one another. Message at the depth was much darker and more experimental, but also excellent. Jaku, unlike some of his music, has a very japanese feel to it. The first song "still island" is the perfect intro. It slowly brings you in and is very japanese sounding, it's slower but not boring at all. The next 3 trakcs are all equally good, and then transition. This really stands out to me, even though its short, i really like the string arrangements, which Krush doesn't use very often. Then is Stormy Cloud with Ken Shima on piano. This is something Krush certainly hasn't done before, and it's one of the standout tracks on here, Laying classical piano over trip hop. The next two tracks are also extremely good. I'm just not spending the time to cover every track. Next is Kill switch with Aesop Rock. Aesop Rock is one of the most talented rappers around today, ill definitely say that. I do listen to alot of hip/hop (good hip hop) but i've never really gotten into aesop, but all his work with Krush is amazing. The next track "pretense" is also one of my favorites, it's got a pretty thick breakbeat running throughout. The whole song has sortof an eerie feeling about it, yet something about it feels upbeat and light. Track eleven is "slit of cloud" which is a bit of a chanting track like candle chant off zen. It uses saxophone, another thing Krush rarely uses, and it blends perfectly with the break beats. i won't really go into it but track 12 "passage" is also great. AND, it's the only track with a hint of japanese rap (which is the slight downgrade in my rating). Then, onto track 13 "beyond raging waves" which could be my favorite track on the cd. It has an extremely japanese feel to it and really good use of... well whatever it is. It's that japanese instrument we all know, similar in sound to a mandolin but i cant quite put the name on it.Anyway, if used in a non-corny/cliche way, can sound awesome in songs. It's perfect here. The beat is pretty subtle, yet still maintains a heavy quality but doesn't overpower anything else. Everything on this track blends together so well and it is one of my favorite krush songs, hands down. track 14, also great. track 15 "song 2" starts out with one of the mallot instruments, sound slike a vibraphone but i don't know what it is. Then that plays behind a really heavy trip hop beat that is one of the best beats on this album. There's some variation with the vib type deal, and it sounds pretty cool. This is also one of my favorite tracks on teh cd. ALl in all, this is one of Krush's best cds in my opinion. If you asked me to order his cd's from best to... not best, id have to decline and shoot myself in the foot as an alternative because that is something that shouldn't be done. They're all different, and you have to respect every one of them for what it is, don't expect the same from Krush, and if you're new to him, wehere to start... If instrumental is your thing, try out kakusei, if you want something dark and experimental, try message, or if you want something with a very japanese feel, try Jaku which is truly amazing.

日本の伝統楽器がこんなにクールでかっこいいなんて！！！　この手のコラボは非常に難しく、ただサンプルとして取り込むと簡単にチープな仕上がりになってしまう。
ところがこれは完全に成功例。妥協を許さないKrushであるから当然わかっていたのだろう、ものすごく張り詰めた真剣勝負に立ち会っているかのような気持ちになる音だ。協働するアーティストのほうもものすごい緊張を維持しているのがわかる。
真剣の上にたたずむような、切れ味鋭く清涼な空気感。禅的なテンションに思わず聴く側の顔も引き締まる。

聴きやすい日本色の強い融合曲

Reviewed in Japan on January 15, 2005

Verified Purchase

クラッシュのCDはこれが初めてですが、サンプルを聴いてこれを選びました。
日本色が強く文化系の曲が多いですが、クラッシュのセンスで若者でも聴きやすいビートと上手く融合されてます。
もはやヒップホップとは言いがたいのですがとても素晴らしい出来だと思います。
一番驚いたのは民謡に暗く風が吹いてるようなバックを混ぜるクラッシュのセンスでした。
ただただかっこいい音とノリノリを求めるならこれはお勧めしません。
渋いのが好きな人で家でゆっくり聞きたい人向けでしょう。
日本版は高いので中の文を読みたい人以外はこちらをお勧めします。
