Kyoto Jazz Massive featuring Vanessa Freeman and the Echoes Of A New Dawn Orchestra

Led by Shuya Okino and featuring Vanessa Freeman on lead vocals, KJM is now backed by the powerful Echoes Of A New Dawn Orchestra, spreading their unique cross-over vision from jazz-funk, broken beat to soulful house, cosmic grooves and everything in-between.

The DJ duo pioneered Japanese club jazz and crossover music worldwide.  In 1994, their first production came out but their breakthrough came while signing their first single Eclipse to on the label Compost.  KJM gained international recognition, as both critics and audience acclaimed their innovative crossover style, blending electro, jazz, house, funk and broken beats.

In 2022 Kyoto Jazz Massive returned with their second and long-anticipated album. The wait has definitely been worth it as Kyoto Jazz Massive have once again delivered another incredible genre-defying recording that continues to be forward looking.  With "Message From A New Dawn", KJM offers an ultimate vision of a modern, deep and jazz dancefloor crossover, including elements of house, afrobeat, soul and funk.
