Captain Funk-Sunshine-review-Spring Magazine-September

We would like to deliver a comprehensive press/media exposure report on Captain Funk “Sunshine” here. We appreciate that these magazines, radio programs, and websites took the time and featured “Sunshine.” Thank you so much!

Captain Funk “Sunshine” album page

– “Sunshine” album reviews & comments-

(original language: Japanese)

“Have you ever heard such catchy and all-direction dance music? “Weekend,” which sounds almost like being possessed by Michael Jackson in his prime, is particularly a gem. “(bounce)

“The way he pursues “pop” in this album is overwhelming, which almost makes me wonder if there has ever been high-quality dance music crafted like this. “(Oops!)

“If you’re looking for music to listen to, you should choose a good one like this. “(Spring)

“This album, filled with outstanding melody as sustainable as that of Brian Wilson and Kyohei Tsutsumi, clearly answers the question if popular music can survive in the 21st century.” (Studio Voice)

“This album includes straight-ahead radio friendly songs. His attitude toward pushing the envelope to make outstandingly pop music reminds me of his 90’s masterpiece “Bustin’ Loose EP.” (CD Journal)

Tomoyuki Tanaka to Captain Funk Sunshine

– Press & Chart Info-

“Weekend” got ranked No.5 at FM COOLO “Hits40″ (Japanese international radio station program).

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。
