THe Hype As the rescue efforts continue in the Japanese fishing villages that were rocked by a 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami on March 11th, so do the pledges from countless organizations to raise money for aid, medicine, food and fresh water to send to the ravaged regions. In the state of Tagajo alone the death toll alone is easily reaching 10,000 and still 20,000 people remain missing. Radiation from the nuclear power is seeping into the food and water. It is imperative that we keep helping the victims try to return to a degree of normality although theres no telling how soon that will be. In its 18-year history, electronic record label King Street Sounds has been bridging musical acts between the USA and Japan bringing the biggest and the best talent overseas and importing the same level of talent to our domestic shores. In doing their part to aid in the earthquake/tsumani relief effort, King Street has put together a special benefit compilation of cross cultural tunes by Japanese producers and artist that have made a significant impact on the dance floors across the USA and beyond. Previously unreleased, brand new tracks from P'taah feat Miho Hatori, Kuniyuki Takahashi, Tomo Inoue, OMB and Converge+.
