In the mid-seventies, Tokyo and the entire Japanese scene were swept up in the disco fever. Following the success of the Fatback Band's "Do The Bus Stop" in the US charts, Victor, a Japanese label, responded with the first domestically produced disco track in 1976 – "Sexy Bus Stop" under the enigmatic moniker Dr. Dragon & Oriental Express, a guise for the accomplished Japanese pop composer Kyohei Tsutsumi. The track quickly became a sensation in the country, leading various Japanese record companies to dive into the disco wave. From 1976 to the early 1980s, skilled studio musicians, not computers, crafted the music, delivering a robust sound to the dance floor. Disco tunes permeated TV series, commercials, and even anime.

This compilation delves into the golden era of Disco and Boogie, exploring some of the finest releases from the legendary Nippon Columbia label. From the chart-topping "The Birth Of The Odyssey - Monkey Magic" by Godiego to the obscure yet excellent "Disco Great Tokyo" by Pink Parachute, this selection promises an immersive journey through the rich soundscape of late seventies and early eighties Japan. So, lace up your dance shoes, and let the rhythm take over – it's time to enjoy the groove!
