ep45. WELCOME TO MAISON J

Tokyo’s Maison J takes over The Young Punx FM for 80 minutes of disco house, turbo-funk and Japanese city pop, with a generous helping of French-touch grooves. Better known as hip-hop producer Jackkn, Jay brings his MofoHifi release TATATA and a sneak preview of an unfinished dance rework of Yasuha’s 1980s city-pop classic Fly-Day Chinatown. Hal occasionally interrupts to reminisce about Japan and a Cassius-fuelled road trip through France, while tracing the sound back to Cassius and Phoenix. Otherwise, Maison J is left to get on with the music. No elaborate snack reviews, no catastrophic studio accidents. A suspiciously professional episode.
