新品CD DJ DDT-TROPICANA – KIRA KIRA R&B VOL.8 BLAZIN’

Blazin’ R&B!! Streetに根付いた2000年代のHip Hop Soul、それが『Blazin’ R&B』。2000年以降のR&B ClassicsにSpotを当てたMix、『Kira Kira R&B』シリーズも今回で第8作目。今回のテーマは『Blazin’』。2000年代初頭、USの人気FM局を中心に『Blazin’ Hip Hop & R&B』なんて言葉を良く耳にしたはず。今回はそんなStreetのシーンに根付いたHip Hop色の強いR&B、言わば『2000年代のHip Hop Soul』とも言っても過言では無い、そんな一幕をPick。当時、渋谷のレコ屋街を中心に毎日の様に繰り広げられていた新譜Promo盤の争奪戦。そんな争奪戦の末に氏が集め抜いたPromo盤の数々…今となっては本国USでも入手困難な盤も少なくないとか。そんなデジタル化されていない様なマニアックな1曲から、当時ClubでPlayされない日は無かった様なアンセム的な1曲まで『Blazin’』をテーマに選んだ全50曲。当時の空気感を損なわずに、今現在でもしっかり聞ける様に、細部にまで気を配ったMixは時に大胆であり、また時には繊細である。Seratoが主流になって当時買ったアナログ盤を手放してしまった、そんなDJの方々もこのMixを聞いたらもう一度つい盤を探してしまう…、そんなMixに仕上がっております。この辺の年代のR&Bはファンが多いにも関わらず、あまり評価されていないのが実情…ならば2014年、今だからこそ再評価を促したい。
