Takuya Nakamura - Shape The Future Takuya Nakamura

New York-based Japanese jazz and electronic music polymath Takuya Nakamura presents his debut album Shape The Future - almost 35 years into his storied musical journey. An expansive double album, the album’s first LP documents a spellbinding live performance by Nakamura recorded at fabric. A hybrid set combining DJing, live electronics, vocals, and trumpet, the set also features studio versions of special collaborations with Shigeto and Tim Reaper.

The second LP complements the first by assembling studio recordings of select album tracks alongside these collaborations, as well as an exclusive collaboration with Greentea Peng. Altogether, the two volumes make for a definitive display of Nakamura’s exceptional musicianship across jazz, DnB, jungle, broken beat, deep techno and more. Across his career, Nakamura has played Brazilian music, merengue, salsa and straight-ahead jazz.
