Sleep Walker - Into The Sun
French label Jazzmin has released a new album from Sleep Walker. Well, one might say it's not a new album, but a collection of their previous 12-inches - either way, for the first time these tracks are officially available outside of Japan and in a digital format.
Sleep Walker are a jazz quartet around Hajime Yoshizawa, that already released two albums in Japan (Sleep Walker in 2004 and The Voyage in 2006) through Especial Records. Into The Sun mixes tracks from both albums and their more recent 12-inch singles.
