A producer closely-aligned to the mutant, hybrid sounds emanating from both instrumental grime and wider strands of UK-centric bass music, <a href="spotify:artist:2KpGANYR8s65QVps1eIvFg" data-name="Last Japan">Last Japan</a> has certainly carved out his own niche within the landscape over the last three years. His sound is a positively cold spin on formative grime beats, laced with full-blooded melodies and softer, eerier textures. Last Japan’s self-released mixtape, '<a href="spotify:album:7Bun2k6WPBFBH4usIviJWA" data-name="Ride With Us">Ride With Us</a>', was the first to fully alert the wider scene to his conceptual, future-facing producer world, and take note.
Last Japan joined the ranks of emergent grime label, Coyote Records, from which he has since launched ‘<a href="spotify:track:2Ow5w6zBf1WSwVCtpTCFfm" data-name="Harca (feat. Prince Rapid)">Harca (feat. Prince Rapid)</a>’ and 2016's highly anticipated track ‘<a href="spotify:album:4ofMte1F0yUMGJPs6IoaJs" data-name="Ascend">Ascend</a>’ (2016) – arguably his most identifiable track to date - his signature icy grime production supported effortlessly by MOBO award nominee, <a href="spotify:artist:4Xi6LSfFqv26XgP9NKN26U" data-name="AJ Tracey">AJ Tracey</a>.
His most recent release '<a href="spotify:album:6cFMWwo6SspOeN3oZzPfSa" data-name="LUNA">LUNA</a>' is a 7 track EP that runs parallel to the work released on Coyote Records. Arranged to evoke personal interpretations from the listener, it's a winter-inspired body of work; a soundtrack to misty days and cold, crisp nights with Canary Wharf looming over the East End. Followed by a 3 track collaboration with Finnish producer Inner – '<a href="spotify:album:5AbajutL8CZfC6vJIZclqg" data-name="Cold Ascent">Cold Ascent</a>' (2018) was released on Last Japan’s own label Ascend which saw both producers fuse their own tastes and influences from Drill, Grime and Jungle.
