About this item

M-Scape is a solo project by Japanese DJ / producer/remixer Makoto Nakatani.

"Urban Reconstruction" is a release that blends house, techno and broken-beat in a very skillful way.

The title track is, dare we say, a Los Hermanos sounding track that holds both the energy and harmonies Gerald Mitchell would produce. 'I Do' is deep house on a broken beat tip while 'Freedom' has got more of the M-Scape sound, fusing house, jazz and techno in a contagious and elevating form, a must for lovers of Galaxy 2 Galaxy and the jazzier side of the Underground Resistance catalogue. Ending the EP is 'Let The Drums Play' which is not far from what electronic-jazz pioneer Mark de Clive-Lowe does and a great way to end an EP that makes a stellar debut on Local Talk.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: If you like UK broken beat like Bugz In The Attic, IG Culture & Kaidi Tathum; and hi-tech jazz like Los Hermanos and Galaxy 2 Galaxy, then this record literally could not be more perfect for you! A mix of two stylistically strong camps come together for a winning moment on GAMM.
