This superb new Jazz Room Records compilation showcases a vibrant mix of world genres that innovatively blend funk, J-jazz, Afro-Cuban, and boogaloo influences. The tracks range from the heavy Latin jazz energy of 'Bolivia 67' to the 1970s kung fu-inspired groove of 'Tong King Rock.' They all add up to a colourful collection that plays out with nice cohesion overall but also offers up some high class DJ weaponry. Along the way, the record takes in further highlights like 'Eastern Folktale' and the lively rhythms of standouts like 'Jump Up Life' which help to make this such a gem for the collection.
