Japanese jazz label, mostly local talent and some excellent recordings. Official homepage.

Time Music International
British super-budget label, of the sort that releases music that has been recorded by session musicians, typically in something less than an inspired fashion, and is the packaged with a slightly misleading allusions to a different "original artist" on the front cover, or what used to be called "exploitation disks" (I gather that this term is outdated by now). In all fairness I got a few disks from this company that where too new to have been included in the catalogue on their website (Nov 2003) that contain out of copyright recordings, mostly transfers from old 78's by artists such as Judy Garland that are actually rather tastefully done and in a stark contrast to the rest of the labels output, what is especially noteworthy about them is the light use of digital noise reduction that has resulted disks that are less distorted than similar I have bought recently and at the typical resale price of 2 to 3 £ these are highly recommended. Quite novel to find that a transfer engineer working for a budget label that not only has a head fastened upon his shoulders but ears on that head as well. Official homepage.
