The Jansen Jardin imprint has really made an impression at Juno HQ since their releases started being made available outside of their Japanese homeland, and this sixth twelve in a fledgling career is perhaps the finest to date. Minus Yogis is the intriguing musical combination of Japanese magician, Motoyoshi 'Donkey' Shimazaki, ex- Tokyo policewoman, Kimiko Kawabe and Englishman abroad Max Essa with "All Tied Up" an auspicious debut production. Driven by bouncy bass that sends a shiver all the way to your toes and chords with a fully upward trajectory, your senses are captivated long before the expert synth lines sway into focus. The flipside treatment from Juju & Jordash finds uncharted haunting sonic territory in the source, adding some menace to the bassline and flushing the melodies with a fuzzed out melancholia.
