Sakura Beat by Latte Chill – the first of a long series. I plan to work on more cherry blossom inspired Japanese oriental chill-out mixes. Cherry Blossom is a great event in Japan and all over the World symbolizing the reborn of nature. Commonly know as Sakura. This is my hour long tribute to the event.
Last year I had the chance to be in Japan, Tokyo during the cherry blossom, for more, click below:

Sakura Beat songs were chosen from many albums
Oriental chill is pretty much part of my beats, but I kind of scatter them on different albums. In these mixes I fuse my past (even 10+ year old) LPs with my latest releases to offer a timeless sakura beat mix.
I have chosen beats from Earth nature chill album. Year 2017 also delegated an oriental chill beat ‘South Chinese Sea’. Leaf Green became number three on my list. Lavender offers a bitter but cleansing vibe to the listener. It matches the feeling you may encounter if you have ever played with Pokémon Red/Blue games.
Moon offered the opening beat ‘Iki’ for Sakura Beat. Contrary to Leaf Green’s Lavender, Iki is happy and upbeat. It brings back the sunny vibe of the mix. Orange is another example for nature chill beats I desired to feature on Sakura Beat.
Memories of the Untold is an album from the past. While I cannot say it is a fully oriental one. It has lots of songs inspired by the Far East. Two of them are being featured on Sakura Beat. Finally, Dragonic Eve closes the mix with ‘Epilogue’.
Few more EPs are also being featured on Sakura Beat mix
Starting with Chinese Restaurant. An EP fully dedicated to the Far East and therefore a must for Sakura Beat mix. Followed by Tokyo19, the oriental EP I produced inspired by my trip to Tokyo in 2019. Color Scheme also features songs on the mix. This EP is an interesting one: I feature traditional Asian instruments only on the release. Furthermore all songs are in pentatonic scale that were used in China mainly.
Fire at Night is part of Earth story, one of the first nature chill beats from 2018. Tanabata on the other hand brought 2 songs, both dreamy yet oriental.
