Jam Fillux

datto has been active in the music scene with a style that combines sample-based beats centered around jazz and soul with down-to-earth lyrics that reflect real-life experiences. Since 2021, he has released an album or EP every year, including two EPs last year titled Itsu no manika no Ima woand Colorful no shita wa Itsumo mujii.This album marks his first release of the year.

Jam fillux is a beatmaker who releases solo beat tapes, provides beats for rappers, and creates music for commercials. He primarily uses live instrumentation with sampling, and his previous works have featured mellow boom bap and edgy LA-style beats. He is also a member of the beatmaker collective GONIN and has contributed to all three of their released albums.

This is the first time the two have collaborated. datsuto fell in love with Jam filluxs beats and proposed the collaboration, and Jam fillux, who had been listening to datsutos music for some time, expressed a desire to work on an album-length project. jamfillux beats that maximize the use of wordsand beats that can resonate with someone's heart even without words, creating a mellow and warm beat. datsutos straightforward and unpretentious lyrics, themed around being with the people you care about,are layered over this soft boom bap track.

The only featured artist is shou, a rapper from Okayama, on the track kuki. The mixing was done by Jam fillux himself, and the mastering was handled by Lou. The artwork was created by NOX, who is part of THE WEST CLASSIC RECORDS alongside datsuto. Below are comments from both artists.


datsutos Comment

The first beat I received was Hometown, and upon hearing it, I thought, I want to use words that resonate with people and touch their hearts. The lead track Hometown is a song dedicated to a senior MC who took his own life, someone who always believed in me without judgment.

The album was completed after a year and a half of continuous communication with Jam fillux, and it is my personal masterpiece. As always, it is authentic and down-to-earth, with many descriptions of my hometown. I hope listeners will feel that what is taken for granted is not necessarily so. Alternatively, even if you just let it play in the background, the words will still come through, so I recommend listening to it during sunset or after work.


Jam fillux Comment  

From the first time I heard it, I felt that dato-kun's music truly reflects his personality. The deep love for his hometown, friends, and family, and the lyrics that honestly depict his vulnerabilities without trying to put on a facade. Every time I encountered his down-to-earth, raw, and straightforward words, I was deeply moved.  

I wanted to bring out his worldview further through my beats. But I realized that one song alone wouldnt be enough. Thats why I decided to create an album with him.  

The main motivation for creating this album was the desire to leave behind a work that only he and I could create. I hope this music can quietly accompany you in your daily lifewhether its on your way home at sunset, taking a break after work or school, or when youre feeling a bit sentimental.
