The Japanese jazz scene is currently hotter than ever. With high profiled bands like Soil & Pimp Session and Sleepwalker enjoying great success all over the world we now introduce the next big Jazz band from Japan. Quasimode is a 4 piece Jazz band based in Tokyo, Japan and was formed in 2002. Their sound is based on authentic jazz rhythms from the 60's and 70's. With a mixed club and Latin feel they deliver all their music live and have gained strong support in their native Japan. On their recording debut Quasimode comes through with two amazing club Jazz bombs. First off is a killer cover version of UK Jazz hero Tubby Hayes and his hugely in demand "Down In The Village" track from the mid 60's. On the b-side Quasimode deliver a self-written composition entitled "oneselfLIKENESS" which is slightly deeper and spiritual but possibly even stronger.
