Asian Jams #6 - Proto-Vaporwave

With our eyes set on unearthing the freshest flavours from unexpected places, we widen our scope with hand-picked selections from all across Asia. This week, we dig deep to dish out some obscure Japanese tracks that sparked the whole vaporwave movement from early 80s jazz fusion to instrumental jazz tracks that have been sampled till this very day.
