SK says: 'Casting its temporal net a little wider than the cult hit first compilation, Pacific Breeze 2 takes in cuts from Herbie Hancock collaborator Kimiko Kasai and the hard-boiled jazzsploitation of The Mystery Kindaichi Band, alongside smoother tracks which showcase the breadth of the City Pop sound.'

Expected release 9th April 2021. “I wanted to try and showcase as many people as I knew on this mix. My idea of Late Night Tales was to distil a series of relaxing moments; the whole conceptual sonic of relax- ation. So, I was trying to think of all the collaborators and friends that I knew, who’d recorded stuff with this horizontal vibe. Plus, I was also trying to help my friends' stuff get into the world. I know the story of Khruangbin blowing up after appearing on the series (in fact, I t...
