K.O.L. Radio was launched in mid-2020 with the goa

K.O.L. Radio was launched in mid-2020 with the goal of introducing all types of great music, via mixes and podcasts created by dedicated & knowledgeable collectors. Whether musicians, producers, DJs, journalists, label owners or broadcasters, all the contributors to date have in common a sincere commitment to sharing music in a dynamic and informative way, something no algorithm can do! We’re excited now to present the K.O.L. Radio Digest Ep.#1 where channel co-programmers DJ Otsuka and Mr. OK Jazz look back at the first five mixes put up in mid 2020.
This program is presented in both English and Japanese! この番組は英語と日本語で提供されています!)
(Our first try so ignore some of the sound issues!)
Listen at the K.O.L. Radio page at MixCloud.com, and stay tuned for some more big news coming soon..!

@philiparneill & I wrap up our 5 day jazz adventure by racing through Kyushu! A remarkable discovery at Naima in Oita City, plus 6 other joints! Listen via iTunes, Spotify or SoundCloud. The end of our 2018 journey, but more to come..

A bumper length episode today as our journey comes to a climactic end with a manic, phenomenal day of discovery, and we hit 7 joints around Kyushu. More importantly, James finally reveals the secret ingredient to his luscious locks: the reason that you’ve really been listening all this time….We hope you’ve enjoyed coming on this epic trip with us, and thanks for all the listens and downloads.
Happy New Year from TJJ!

Another epic day in our 5 Days In June series on the @tokyojazzjoints podcast! This time going deep into the hills of Kyushu island in search of some very hard to get to jazz spots.

Part 6 of 5 Days in June brings us easily the most beautiful location of any jazz kissa ever, and the uncovering of a beautiful Fender Rhodes hidden in a B&B, before a slightly frustrating afternoon of shuttered shops and a desperate search for some food!
