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.

一見難解だったり複雑に聞こえない音楽でも、プレイヤーたちの超絶的な技巧やセンスがそこに深みを与えていることはよくある。僕はバカテク系の音楽やミュージシャンには興味がない代わりに、その手の「深み・旨味系プレイヤー」(そんな言葉ないか、笑)の演奏には魅了される。ゴスペルアーティストKirk Franklinを支えるベーシストMatt Ramseyと、Snarky Puppyのメンバーでもあった故Shaun Martinのコンビは、まさに旨味系。

セールスに関するポッドキャスターが「何でもかんでもリバースエンジニアリング(RE)できると思う傾向には反対だ。人間関係や信頼が解析できないように、どんなに営業ツールやAIが進化してもセールスも解析できない」と主張していたのが印象に残った。音楽の世界でも、人の好みをRE的に解析する「推薦システム」が当たり前に使われているが、アルゴリズムやAIの薦めるものには当然限界や不自然さがあり、その違和感を感じられることこそ人間らしさだと思う。

12/8拍子、いわゆる「シャッフル」と呼ばれるリズムは、長い歴史を持つ。僕はよく使うけれど、エレクトロニックミュージックの世界では、「4つ打ち」のようにどこでも聴けて誰もが使うリズムではない。でも、昨日紹介した曲のように3連符の感覚を取り入れたリズムこそ、欧米と非欧米の世界を繋ぐカギが隠されているのではないかと思ったりもする。もしガーナのエウェ族の12/8拍子&ポリリズムを大きなフェス会場で奏でたら、どんなDJも勝てないだろう。
