\"michir_mond_portraits_101b\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A wonderful portrait of Monday Michiru \u2013 one of our favorite singers of the past 20 years \u2013 equally well-versed in jazz, soul, and Brazilian modes \u2013 all of which come together on this collection of very well-chosen and overlooked tracks! The special 2CD package brings together music from some of Monday’s smaller label and under-distributed titles \u2013 including a number of import-only selections, a few collaborations with other artists, and a really wonderful array of tunes that show just how much Michiriu has grown since she first started out! Monday hit some great fame in the mid 90s in Japan \u2013 but during recent years, she’s been living in the US mostly, and really working on her craft away from the limelight \u2013 opening up with expressive jazz inflections that rival some of her best inspirations of previous decades, while still holding onto the richly soulful power that brought her some strong early attention. If you’ve missed hearing Monday at all, this set is a great introduction \u2013 and even if you’ve followed her as closely as we have, we’ll bet that there’s some tracks here you might not have in your collection. 23 tracks in all \u2013 including “Dreams Of Tomorrow”, “Mi Vida”, “Sometimes”, “One (Alter Ego version)”, “Generations”, “Epiphany”, “Aldeia De Ogum”, “Nexus Interlude”, “Hung Up”, “Genetic Imprints”, “Just Be Good To Me”, “No Matter What”, “Belle O Byron Bay (Bluey mix)”, “No Answer”, “The Cosmic Laws”, and “Cut To The Chase”.
