Album Review

Emerging from the Tokyo club scene, Soil & Pimp Sessions combine the dancefloor-filling grooves of funk and hip-hop with the imagination and melodic sophistication of jazz, and the group demonstrates their talent and showmanship on their 2008 album Planet Pimp. Planet Pimp features 14 songs in which the six-man combo (including "agitator and spirit" Shacho) performs music that moves classic groove jazz into the 21st century while honoring the sound and spirit of their influences.

Customer Reviews

Possibly the ONLY original album you'll hear in 2009

I honestly had to rub my eyes this morning when I saw not one, but several Soil & "Pimp" Sessions albums available on iTunes. This Japanese punk-jazz outfit have been favorites of mine for years, but up until today you could only find their material on pricey UK or Japanese imports. Hats off to Koch for taking the leap with these guys and releasing this new album plus their back catalog domestically. Wildly talented musicians with quite possibly one of the most intense stage shows you'll ever see. If you're thoroughly drained by lame economic news, sub par music releases being touted as the "next big thing" and you need a shot of adrenaline, skip the BUY SONG option and just BUY THIS ALBUM!!!

Planet Pimpin'

This band is somethin' else! "Storm" is amazing and the rest of the album follows. It's a bizarre, entertaining combination of tight jazz musicianship and reckless punk energy. I think it's clear from this release that we all need to go see them live, asap.

Soil & Pimp Sessions Are Cooler Than Your Moms

There is nothing else like these guys. Theyre nutz. I would love to see them live, but I'm sure their albums are just as dope. Glad I can finally buy them in dollars instead of pounds.

The group features five musicians — Josei on piano, Tabu Zombie on trumpet, Motoharu on sax, Akita Goldman on double bass, and Midorin on drums — as well as Shacho, credited as "agitator and spirit," who prowls the stage as the group performs and occasionally...
