"Ki-Oku" est l’album collaboratif du trompettiste de jazz japonais Toshinori Kondo et du producteur de hip-hop japonais DJ Krush sorti en 1996 au Japon (Sony Music Entertainment), puis en Europe par Apollo en 1998, et aux États-Unis par Instinct Records en 1999. L'album comprend 10 morceaux principaux et trois interludes courts, avec une reprise de "Sun Is Shining" de Bob Marley.
L'album Ki-Oku ouvre inéluctablement un espace pour le rêve et la contemplation, la musique est douce, cosmique, et dirigée par des breakbeats à la fois percutants et cotonneux que DJ Krush distille avec maestria. Les beats krushiens semblent trouver l'accord parfait avec les sons cuivrés de la trompette de Toshinori Kondo et emmènent les treize plages instrumentales vers des ambiances atypiques, prochent de l'acid-jazz et du downtempo. "Ki-Oku" a reçu des critiques positives, avec AllMusic le décrivant comme du jazz groove lisse révélant des nuances subtiles. Fact l'a classé au 25e rang des meilleurs albums de trip hop de tous les temps.
Il est réédité en 2024 à l’occasion des 3 ans de la mort de Toshinori Kondo.

There’s a new EP afoot for the three piece hip-hop unit MONJU. Currently awaiting a name, there’s a lot of mystery surrounding this first major undertaking by ISSUGI, SENNINSHO and Mr. PUG since their last EP Black de. ep released all the way back in 2008. Now veterans of the Japanese hip-hop scene, their legendary status has had no marked effect on the raw and rooted sound that has stuck with them since the early days, and we expect a fire of fresh material. All tracks will be produced by the prolific 16FLIP who has worked tirelessly with the unit’s back catalogue and many key records in Dogear Record’s rich history.
