HOODOO FUSHIMI - KENKA OYAJI VINYL RE-ISSUE (LP)

Release Date: 14th May 2021

"Killer and cult electro funk hip hop musical U.F.O. from 1987 Japan. This highly sought-after record reissued for the first time since its original release with sound restoration, mastering and lacquer cut by Timmion Cutting Lab. 180g heavy vinyl pressing, reverse board print and comes with a 4 page insert including the original Japanese one, an interview with Hoodoo Fushimi (in English and Japanese), exclusive pictures and the album's lyrics translated in English. 1987, Kanagawa, not so far from Tokyo, Japan. Minoru Fushimi teaches his high-school classes during the day. Back from work, he transforms into "Hoodoo" Fushimi, turns on the drum machines, the synthesizers and the sequencers, blends them with his own shamisen playing and builds a cult album: Kenka Oyaji is born and becomes a milestone in Japan's early hip hop and electro-funk history, now reissued for the first time since its original release, in collaboration with Hoodoo Fushimi himself."
