bio: Jafrosax's "New Standard of The Future" meshes together the elements of new and old with a wicked spin on the future. Yukimi Nagano (Koop), Philadelphia's Vikter Duplaix and Japan's producer de jour DJ Mitsu The Beats are amongst the wealth of talent assembled on this project. Vocal Casanova Vikter Duplaix introduces the album with 'In The Morning', a mellow spring affair with his life affirming lyrics sitting on top of a sweet Brazilian house vibe from Jazztronik. Released as a promo 12" in the summer it found itself in every quality DJ's box. Spearheaded by the spine tinkling vocals of Yukimi, the tracks 'Wait and See' and 'Drawn 2 U' highlight why she has been dubbed the Billie Holiday of the modern era. 'Wait and See' sits with high tempo broken beat action exploring the depth and mood of Yukimi's voice. 'Drawn 2 U' has found fans worldwide especially from Dimitri From Paris who features it on his forthcoming Defected CD 'In The House Of Love'. The title track is a flagship for the album's unique style with Underground Resistance's timeless classic 'Hi Tech Jazz' getting the Jafrosax makeover to sterling effect. Beatmaker of the moment DJ Mitsu The Beats stands tall alongside his local outfit Gaggle to team up on production on 'Shin Ku Kan'. Also featured as bonus tracks are 'Drawn To You' flipped by fellow Tokyo neighbours and King Street recording artists Studio Apartment and In 'The Morning' remixed by Faze Action's new studio moniker
