“Each well-timed move thrilled the excited crowd. By the end of the show, the dance floor was a mass of funk converts who, even if they had wanted to, were unable to stop themselves dancing feverishly to the explosive rhythmic energy that Osaka Monaurail generated.” Upside News

“By far, one of the hottest funk bands on the planet.” Marva Whitney, Soul Sister #1 and featured vocalist with James Brown

“You know when you see a band that plays so well, you just need to take off your shoes and hold them in the air? These guys are jaw-droppingly tight!” FBI Radio

“Frontman Ryo Nakata is more like James Brown than he has any right to be; the voice, the mannerisms, the sense of humour… it’s all perfect.” Double J

“As a showman, Nakata does not disappoint with his contagious energy, smiles or cheeky grins that transmits his soul feeling flawlessly to the audience throughout the gig… A bitchin’ night of Japanese funk!” Matrix Barcelona
