Description
This is the Shinkansen, a classic train making a classic journey through Japan. Welcome aboard.
Ditching eccojams for vaportrap, hypnagogic pop and ambient influences, Shinkansen is a far cry from vapour producer Kappa's previous efforts- the acclaimed Hi-Poly Lime Pool and Canarias Virtua duology. However, this ambitious and conceptual project combines samples with original compositions to create a dense, varied yet focused album that is sure to delight any fan of vapour new or old.
"True passion put in every second... the future shines bright for this talented artist from the United Kingdom..." - Biohazard Penguin credits
