“Enter” is DJ Kentaro’s full production debut and it follows his “On the Wheels of Steel Mix” that announced his arrival as an international artist. It boasts an impressive also-featuring list that includes The Pharcyde, Spank Rock, New Flesh, Little Tempo, Hifana and Fat John.
At times the album bears the hallmark of a former DMC mix champion in that it feels just that bit busy. However, there are some great moments when less proves that little bit more. “Tasogare Highway” is a laid-back jazz groove phattened up with lovely acid squelches and “One Hand Blizzard” is a tempo-changing drum’n’bass gem that could have done with being longer. All in all, “Enter” is a promising debut with real highlights. Its wide ranging sound-thievery is difficult to dislike and proves Kentaro as a potentially great producer as well as DJ.
