LP's No Karōshi J-Pop Selection

"Karōshi, which can be translated literally from Japanese as "death from overwork", is occupational sudden death."

- Angleška Wikipedija, vnos za Karōshi

Malo nakladanja, veliko glasbe... in sicer Pilotova selekcija J-pop-a, oziroma japonskega popa, ki nas bo kot gigantski jazzy laserski top obstrelila s srčki, mavricami, lepimi željami in vsaj 100 različnih odtenkov "happy". Kot nalašč za 12-urne delavnike!

* Just in case any Japanese people happen upon this, in my brief introduction I explain that I can't vouch that any of this music (except the Larry Levan remix, obviously) is "hip" or "cool", and for all I know some of it may be considered garbage by cool Japanese people. Please don't hate, I was born this way (that is to say, not Japanese).

** Don't quote me on this, obstaja več verzij te klubske klasike, ki naj bi nastale pod roko disco polboga Larrya Levana. Vem pa zagotovo, da se ta verzija pojavi tako v Larryevih zadnjih setih kot tudi v novejših miksih. Mancuso ga pridno rola, pred kratkim pa ga je remiksiral nizozemec Legowelt.
