who records under the name Nujabes.
The alias is an anagram of his first and last name spelled backwards and combined.
Alongside making music, Nujabes is also owner of the Shibuya record stores, T Records and Guinness Records and founder of the independent label Hyde-Out Productions.
Nujabes's genre-blending music style is known for a distinct cool jazz and soul influence.
He most typically uses samples from artists such as Miles Davis, Pat Metheny, and Yusef Lateef and adds live instrumentation, such as flutes, acoustic guitar, piano, and saxophone to create warm, mellow tracks.
Despite his role as DJ, Nujabes rarely plays live and does not make many media appearances, which adds to his enigmatic charisma. This trait extends into his album covers, all of which express a particular distinct, abstract imagery.
Nujabes has released two albums in Japan,
Metaphorical Music in 2003 and Modal Soul in 2005.
Specifically, Metaphorical Music sold over 20,000 copies by 2004, an unheard-of amount for an independent release.
Seba Jun's music is the inspiration for many upcoming artistes of a similar genre.
Having an excellent ear for music, Seba Jun has also featured many talents in his records
including the likes of Emancipator.
