Captain Funk-interview at J-Pop World thumbnail

Tatsuya had an interview with “J-Pop World (https://www.j-popworld.com/),” American website dedicated to promoting Japanese music and related artists from around the world. They talked a very wide range of topics, from his musical background, his thoughts about remix & collaboration, to recent activities and future visions at Tatsuya’s label Model Electronic. It is very rare for him to have such a long, deep interview like this (and he enjoyed it very much).

We would like to thank and give a shout-out to the interviewer Mark for his interest in Tatsuya’s music and, above all, his deep knowledge of Japanese pop music!

Hope you’ll read and enjoy, it’s rare to talk about the detail like this.

About J-Pop World (quote from the website):
J-Pop World is dedicated to promoting Japanese music and related artists from around the world. We try to highlight Japanese groups who are making an effort to grow a fan base in English-speaking countries, as well as highlight international groups who are heavily influenced by Japanese music and culture.

ジェームズ・クリアーは「環境は習慣を作る”見えない手”だ」と言い、自制心の強い人は、実は「自制心を使わなくても済む仕掛け/仕組み/ルーティーン」を作るのが上手い人のことだと説いた。離れた部屋で眠るギターを手に取るには強い意志が要るが、視界に入る場所に置かれたギターには、自然に手が伸びる。成長のための負荷を「良い摩擦」として残し、目的達成や成長を留まらせる「悪い摩擦」を減らす。仕組みや環境を見直し、アップデートしていこう。

「やる気」は過大評価されている。より大事なのは「環境作り」の方だ。 https://jamesclear.com/power-of-environment

ドキュメンタリー「イマジニアリング」を見て再確認できることは、テクノロジーはあくまで「手段」であり、クリエイティブこそがその「目的」であるという事実。 本来、表現したいものがあるからこそ技術は発展してきた。しかし、昨今は手段(テクノロジー)が目的(クリエイティブ・社会的意義)を飲み込んでしまっているようにも感じる。 だからこそ今、あえて「テクノロジーを使わないクリエイティブ」に宿る価値を、深く考える習慣を取り戻したい。

ディズニーのイマジニアや、マペット作家ジム・ヘンソンのドキュメンタリーを見たくて、これまで縁のなかったディズニー・プラスに入会してみた。「イマジニアリング〜夢を形にする人々」は、熱心なディズニーファンでなくても、ものづくりやクリエイティブなことに興味のある人なら見て損はしない内容だと思う。トレイラーを紹介したかったのだが、それよりも自分のショート動画を紹介したい衝動が勝るので(笑)、MER『Monkey Business』をお楽しみください。
