Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Night Tempo is a Korean producer and DJ, who in the recent years has gained popularity by revisiting city pop and 80's idol sounds from Japan and giving them his special touch. This is a compilation of many of his mixes of Shōwa-era idol pop songs, many of which were released digitally in advance but also including 4 brand new ones. The artwork is also by a Korean artist, named tree 13, who has also done the artwork of previous digital releases of the series.

If you haven't, be sure to check out Night Tempo's original music too, in the album "Funk to the Future" released last year, and also "Concentration" that came out in January.
