Simoncino - Ai Shi Tai (Japanese Love)(ft. Soichi Terada)

So for anyone who's been following the channel for a while you'll have noticed that the uploads have slowed down a lot this year. A few factors have come into it which I won't bore you with but tl;dr: real life. Demonstrated perfectly by the fact that the process of uploading this record, from lending it to a friend to get it cleaned (because they were only open when I was at work), and ripped (because a recent party destroyed our needles), to downloaded, unzipped, made into videos and upped, has taken me literally six weeks. Massive shouts to you Sam.
Essentially, this is possibly my single most prized possession. It's not even that hard to get hold of now, but a few years ago I shipped it over from the US because I couldn't wait any longer, which, in addition to the price of the LP itself, was and still is the most I've spent on one record.
I've been intending to upload it for years, because I utterly adore it, and because you couldn't hear it in full anywhere on the internet. But there are lots of amazing Mathematics releases not on KZbin and I really wanted to go through in order uploading all my favourites. This being #067, it was always a long way off. But now that I can see I'm definitely never going to get round to the Mathematics marathon, and as passing 5000 subscribers felt like a fitting landmark, it feels like the right time to share it.
To Nick, and Ron, Ben, Gregg, Soichi, Jamal and everyone that helped create this masterpiece, thank you. You have given me hours of euphoria, joy and peace. I will still be air-keying to Ron's Part 1 mix when I am old and grey.
D2 from 'Open Your Eyes', released on Mathematics in 2013.
