Nujabes Tribute / Samurai Champloo Ost

A composer, producer, and leading figure in Japanese instrumental hip-hop, Nujabes developed a style in which samples, jazz, and electronic textures coexist with great simplicity. The Samurai Champloo soundtrack remains one of the most striking examples of this.

Here, Nujabes’ music takes on a new form, designed specifically for the concert stage. The best-known themes from Samurai Champloo are featured alongside other compositions by Nujabes, in arrangements that leave plenty of room for improvisation and musical interaction among the instrumentalists.
