Nujabes was a one-off and I was gutted when i found out he was no longer around. Think I came around to him like many people - via Samurai Champloo. Can't help but wonder how much his cultural background (i.e. the Japanese hip-hop scene) would have influenced his unique approach. A bunch of his pieces only seem like hip-hop in the sense they make use of sampling - he's very jazzy
