Tatsuya had an interview with Metropolis, Japan’s Number 1 English magazine (paper and digital). He talked mainly about Club Model Electronic, new digital download service and website launched by his own label Model Electronic. We hope you will visit the interview page and enjoy the article.

“Tatsuya Oe opens an online “club” for his banging digital creations”
https://archive.metropolis.co.jp/tokyo/775/clubs.asp

This interview mainly consists of the story about Club Model Electronic ( Captain Funk Official Store, as of 2010 ), including the introduction of me.

Thanks a lot to Metropolis & Don for your interest.

映画『ボビー・フィッシャーを探して』のモデルの天才チェス少年で、その後太極拳からフォイリング(通称「飛ぶヨット」)までを極める「上達の達人」ジョシュ・ウェイツキンは、自身の体調管理のためにHRV(心拍変動)を常に測定していると聞いた。僕も前から興味があったのだが、成人してこのかた腕時計すら殆どしたことのない僕はスマートウォッチを腕に装着するのに抵抗があった。ついに重い腰を上げて1つ手に入れたのだけど、これ着けて寝られるかな…。

「言語化」ばかりがもてはやされる風潮には少し抵抗がある。英語圏の音楽ライセンス業界では、ずっと前から「自分の曲を言語化し、検索できるキーワードや説明に落とし込む力」が必須のスキルだった。知らない単語を覚えたことは勉強になったが、「耳で楽しむものを文字にするほど野暮なことはない」という思いは今も強い。僕は絵心がないので、言語化よりも、伝えたいことや相手から聞いた情報を的確に絵にできる「視覚化能力(描写力)」がもっと欲しい。

次の作品をどうまとめようか思案中。久々に歌物を作りたいと思って数十曲スケッチを作ったのだけど、歌詞とヴォーカルをどうしようかと考え出すと途端に手が止まる。実は、僕は大の音楽好きの割に、言語を問わず、歌詞に注目して深く浸る事はあまりない。でも、中身のない言葉が載った曲は、言語を問わず、耐えられない(笑)。1971年の言葉が、2026年の今、色あせるどころか、むしろこれまでになく切実なリアリティを持って鳴り響く。
