Hip-hop is a form of music and culture that respects all genres of popular music from the past while simultaneously creating new music by freely or arbitrarily reusing them. In other words, it is not destruction but regeneration, discovery, and creation. It all starts here. This is a historical invention born in the 1980s and 90s that unconsciously resonated with the re-evaluation of ideas such as Jacques Derrida's \"deconstruction\" in 1960s France and Michel Foucault's \"Archaeology of Knowledge\"?the \"postmodern\" movement. 90s club culture was a counter to \"disco as an entertainment device\" by a generation that had been baptized by hip-hop, and at the same time, it was a new dissemination and creation of music and culture. With the emergence of Giles Peterson, who was born in France and raised in London, disco DJs, who had previously been merely providers of entertainment, transformed into new \"expressers\" of music: \"club DJs\" and \"record labels.\" Popular music, which had previously been nothing more than consumer goods, became a treasure trove of cultural assets. These are the British-born \"Acid Jazz\" and \"Talkin' Loud.\" Around the same time, a new movement also emerged in Japan. Hashimoto Toru's indie book \"Suburbia Suite,\" which appeared in 1992 with great surprise and impact, became even more dynamic in 1994 as the CD compilation series \"Free Soul.\" It is widely known that Hashimoto Toru was the editor of the magazine \"Brutus.\" This is not unrelated to the fact that Kanazawa Toshikazu of the \"Light Mellow\" series began his career as a music writer after editing and publishing a mini-magazine. Editors are \"creators\" who weave new \"knowledge\" while repeatedly rediscovering \"knowledge\" within the continuity of the past. The fact that DJs and compilers are expressive through music is synonymous with editors being expressive through words. There are many generations in Japan who were greatly influenced by the passionate currents of music and culture that emerged in the 90s, such as club culture and postmodernism, which were based on the perspectives of \"re-evaluation\" and \"rediscovery,\" in other words, \"deconstruction.\" They are Giles Peterson's children, and the legacy continues unbroken as followers of Toru Hashimoto. \"JAZZ FRONT LINE\" is a compilation series that re-evaluates and reconstructs hip-hop and club culture in the 21st century, from the unique perspective of the 90's generation, for themselves and the current new generation. At the same time, it is a new \"rediscovery\" series that pays deep respect to the \"re-evaluation movement\" of the 1990s. From [JAZZ FRONT LINE] with Love. About MPS: MPS's headquarters, the Black Forest, is located in the (former) state of Baden-W?rttemberg, West Germany. Baden-W?rttemberg is an industrial city where the Mercedes-Benz Group and Porsche have their headquarters. There is an atmosphere that somehow resonates with Motown = Detroit and CHESS Records in Chicago, one of the leading industrial cities in the United States. This is probably not unrelated to MPS's unique \"high sound quality.\" That's just how cities are. After World War II, Germany, like Japan, was under Allied rule and divided into East and West Germany. West Germany, in particular, was under the divided rule of the US, UK, and France, and gained independence as a nation in 1955, considerably later than Japan. This explains why MPS (SABA) worked extensively on jazz, especially jazz by American artists. West Germany had many US military bases; even at the time of the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, there were 47 major bases alone. It is said that approximately 250,000 US soldiers were stationed there, and more than 500 military facilities were located throughout West Germany. In comparison, the largest number of US soldiers stationed in Japan is around 30,000 in Okinawa. In other words, postwar West Germany was under the strong influence of the United States in all aspects of politics, economy, culture, and human exchange, to the same extent as, or even more than, Japan. In the late 1960s, young people and artists in West Germany were strongly influenced by thinkers known as the Frankfurt School (critical theory). Herbert Marcuse's works, particularly \"The One-Dimensional Man\" and \"An Attempt at Liberation,\" had a profound influence not only on his own country but also on the May 1968 revolution in neighboring France and the student movement in Japan. Marcuse, who had fled to the United States from the Nazis, later returned to his homeland, where he would greatly influence thinkers, politicians, young people, entertainers, and artists in West Germany. The depth of the multi-layered historical correlation between the United States and West Germany, including not only these individual events but also the processes leading up to them, can be glimpsed, even to a small extent, from 21st-century Japan. MPS is not a label started as a hobby by German jazz enthusiasts. It is densely packed music from an \"era of upheaval and transformation,\" filled with all sorts of emotions?love, hatred, business, politics, respect?between West Germany and the United States. There you'll find Oscar Peterson's dazzling, virtuosic jazz, jazz-rock and crossover, experimental progressive and free jazz, fusion, beautiful jazz harmonies, soul jazz, and avant-garde jazz blending multinational nomad and ethnic influences?each one meticulously, orderly, and brilliantly shining. All of this is MPS jazz.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TOKYO JAPAN CD SHOP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53224838005045,"sku":"4526180752721","price":3400.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/5966\/5973\/files\/51ZSA8VqrHL._AC.jpg?v=1785320453","url":"https:\/\/tokyojapancdshop.com\/products\/4526180752721","provider":"TOKYO JAPAN CD SHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
