Nik Weston has been collecting and spinning music for over twenty years now and has DJ'd with a laundry list of luminaries including
Peanut Butter Wolf, Tricky, Richard Dorfmeister, Phil Asher, Marlena Shaw, Fertile Ground, US 3, DJ Krush and even Courtney Pine. He's been a monthly DJ resident at Russ Dewbury's legendary Brighton Jazz Rooms (which has been running every Friday and Saturday for the last fifteen years) for the last four years and regularly spins all over the globe . The last few years have seen him spinning extensively across Europe but he's also played in Russia, Canada, Australia and completed four DJ tours of Japan. Nik also writes several Japanese music columns as well as co-presenting a two-hour radio show “Forwardsbackwards” on www.milkaudio.com out of Canada (also syndicated in France and Australia).
Sakura Aural Bliss is an excursion into the sound of Japan’s electronic underground. Nik has gathered a selection of well established producers like Yukihiro Fukutomi, United Future Organization, Chari Chari and Calm to rub shoulders with lesser-known producers with no compromise on quality. A varied musical journey that takes no prisoners, this album takes its influences from jazz, ambient, deep house, brazilian, afro and beyond as we immerse ourselves in this melodious blend of music from the “Land of the Rising Sun”. |
