Jun Seba was a Japanese hip-hop music producer who recorded under the name Nujabes. The alias is an anagram of his first and last name spelled backwards and combined. His music is known for a strong cool jazz influence, frequently using samples from artists like Miles Davis and Yusef Lateef.

He was also an owner of "tribe", a record store in Shibuya, Tokyo, and led indie record label Hyde-Out Productions.

He has also contributed music to the soundtrack of Samurai Champloo, an anime which blends a setting in feudal Japan with modern anachronisms, especially hip-hop music.

On March 17, 2010, it was announced on the Hyde-Out Productions website that Jun passed away on February 26, 2010 at the age of 36 after being involved in a serious car accident on the Tokyo Metropolitan Expressway. He was promptly transported to the hospital, where attempts to revive him were unsuccessful.

With Cowboy Bebop, the best OST (Samurai Champloo) ever! But if you look further, he created so much more awesome jazzy hiphop music! R.I.P. Nujabes.

This man was a genius. His work in Samurai Champloo is stellar, and his work outside of it ('Metaphorical Music', 'Modal Soul') is simply sublime. 36 is no age for a man to die. R.I.P. Nujabes.
