Wim Wenders film „pina“ which Miyake contributed core music for has been awarded as „best documentary film“ by Europian film award 2011, Nominated for Academy award 2012
June Miyake’s music comes light-footed as the bossa nova, accessible as sophisticated pop and refined and versatile as lively jazz. Whispered Garden is an ever-changing constellation of sound images and scenes, bossa nova and reggae, Kurt Weill and Nino Rota, chanson and symphony, jazz and improvisation, rock and folk: the album is a must-hear from start to finish, mixing all styles and genres to create a hybrid of musical genius
Jun is truly unique: he constantly produces that “Third Thing”between music and imagery.You enter this space for the first time and you’re already addicted to it…” Wim Wenders
.
Stolen From Strangers, by Japanese arranger Jun Miyake, is your new best friend …it sounds right in any context: loud, soft, in the kitchen, while travelling, on the radio. Each track is full of delight,.. whether Miyake is the new Gil Evans or merely the new Bacharach, he’s made a fantastic album. The Guardian
