DJ 19 has teamed up with JORGE GARCIA from CLUBBERVISION under the guise of JAPAIN – fusing the names of the two countries together in this musical excursion. However, JAPAIN is not just a wry play on words. Leading magazine, The Economist, has said that Japan is in pain because the world's second-biggest economy is still in a funk - and politics is the source of the problem. Using this name provides an element of sarcasm because DJ 19 thinks despite the bleak outlook, Japan will never die and rise again. Japan is after all, the Land of the Rising Sun. HIDEOUT from HOT STATION has added a chillhouse vibe to the original.
JAPANとSPAINのタッグによる新ユニット、JAPAIN（ジャペイン）。その正体はDJ 19とCLUBBERVISIONでお馴染みのJORGE GARCIA。JAPAIN名義では過去に『Essence – Resort Sessions』に「Asterisk」なるチルアウト・トラックを発表しているが、シングルとしては第一弾となる。トライバルでテッキーな質感を持つ2種類のミックスに加え、HOT STATIONのHIDEOUTが初リミックスを披露。チルハウス的質感のピアノが印象的な仕上がりになっている。
DJ 19 will release his cool 'Angel Of Mercy' track as a celebrating of 19BOX RECORDINGS' 50th release. The original is in the style of Lil' Louis' classic 'French Kiss' track and sees a sexy and sultry female vocal pitched up and down for added effect.
DJ 19の新作「Angel Of Mercy」が、19BOX RECORDINGSの記念すべき50番目のカタログとして2012年の先陣を切る。リル・ルイスの「French Kiss」スタイルのピッチのアップ＆ダウンが楽しめる。1/16からbeatportで先行配信。
“Muzik 4 The Boyz” is based on party grooves instead of pop melodies. It’s for DJs, club punters and the home listener looking to have a smile put upon their face. Taking this idea up to the next level, HOT STATION has created what they call “Electro Hip Funk”. Several track have already seen licenses to theatre productions and so forth. It features "The Captain of Her Heart", which was a single originally released by Swiss duo ‘DOUBLE’ in 1986. The song was an international success, reaching #8 in the UK Singles Chart and #16 on the Billboard Hot 100. HOT STATION have covered this classic, featuring vocalist KEN SPECTOR aka LENS.
HOT STATIONとして遂にデビュー・アルバム『Muzik 4 The Boyz』を1/18にリリース。ドゥーブルの「The Captain of Her Heart」のカヴァーを含む11曲入り。各系列店によって異なる特典も用意。詳細は随時UPしていきます。
