Takagi Kan is from Japanese rap group Sha Darra Parr and was featured, funny
enough, on De La Soul's 3rd album. This track was originally from one of the
older MoWax comps. Top release with Trugoy doing his usual older rapping
techniques as heard from his Prinze Pawl days. Most sought after track in Hong
Kong at the moment, in the "rare and shit hot" department. All Automator fans ,
listen to this. If you like what UNKLE did with Tim Goldsworthy, before Lavelle
became commercial and amarketing freak, plus, like as well Japanese acts such
as "Small Circle of Friends" , then this the one. Bit pricey but worth it if
you can't go to Japan yourself.

Nice. Classic 1992-93 period when the Japanese were well ahead of the times,
when Krush started lickin the beats and Pizzicato5 went 60's/house/rap. Their
collaboration is the most unique combination on this album. Rough and massive
bass from Krush contrasting Pizzicato's sweet voice. Essential. Some of the
other tracks was a struggle, as songs like Look of Love is always too
commercialised in nature. Just like trying to remix Mission Impossible and call
it underground. Although UFO pulled it off.
Good luck and thanks for the address.
Cal.
