• Shiro Amamiya – Spiritual World [BPM] (1993)

The Ecstasy Boys-formed by Mitsuru Kotaki, Shiro Amamiya, and Tatsuro Amamiya-were a driving force in the Japanese electronic music scene. Known for their eclectic productions and boundary-pushing performances, the trio captivated audiences and influenced a generation of local DJs, producers, and club-goers.

Ecstasy Boys Selections pays homage to this vital chapter in Japanese dance music history, highlighting the trio’s creativity. The compilation includes three tracks that exemplify their unique blend of Balearic, leftfield house, and progressive sounds.

The best thing is that a reissue of this great track has just been released on Glossy Mistakes!
