Upstairs at Larry's: Lawrence Welk Uncorked

various artists
label:: Vangaurd Records

This CD looks like a generic chillout or house mix comp, but it is a dynamite disc that sounds like classic 2000 J-pop.

The only artist I have heard of is Q-Burn, but every track is well-produced and fun, upbeat dancepop with odd samples and pieces of original 60s Lawrence Welk show vocals.
