This one will instantly appeal to the heads, and then everyone else once they get a second or two into the opening stunner, Tsutchie is cult Japanese hip hop producer Shinji Tsuchida's artist name, a chap who came through as part of the ShakkaZombie group but has mainly worked as a soloist or on collabs since. Here, he presents a top collection of work made for the anime series Samurai Champloo (which also used tunes by Nujabes and Fat Jon).

Not bad for a cartoon, you might say, Tsuchida's contributions are nothing short of beautiful, combining spectacular piano keys, low-slung beats, and a certain atmosphere of playful hypnosis, calling on elements of rare groove, funk, chip and computer music, downbeat and avant garde electronica. Combined, it's a masterclass of understated, achingly cool head nodding business.
