Boot Beat "Manifesto!"
Popular DJ Kamiya Naoaki, aka Boot Beat, is releasing a first mix CD using no less than 43 songs for a total of 65 minutes. The release has received a "5 stars" comment from Konishi Yasuharu.
Boot Beat being close to the Readymade scene, and having remixed Pizzicato Five, Lupin the 3rd, Maki Rinka and MJ-Classical, it's best to keep an eye on him.

Two points (so far) about this release:
1. I really like the red sleeve the case is in, the front cover kind of surprised me when I pulled it out.
2. Referring to "The Readymade Record of Humour (formerly entitled Boot Beat Manifesto!)". Coincidence? I wonder if there is a connection...

Glad to see you could get ahold of that one! It's great, except for that stupid "Mambo No.5" version. That song really annoyed me when it was on the charts for a long time.
1. Yeah I loved the sleeve too! You'd need a green one to read the artist names comfortably though. I didn't have one and it was a pain. :)
Btw, Japanese students use red and greed transparent vinyl sheets like that to study. They use red and green markers to mark words to be memorized in their books, and when covering the page with a vinyl sheet of the other color, the words are effectively hidden! I had never heard of that great technique before coming here.
2. Yeah I was curious too! Certainly not a coincidence, since Boot Beat and Konishi-san/Readymade are very close. Funnily though, I don't think Boot Beat appeared on that one.
