Billboard biz

Tatsuya had a long interview with Mark Frieser, contributing writer of Billboard biz and founder of Sync Summit /Sync Exchange.

This was originally held as a series of interviews on Billboard biz he has been working on from the standpoint of “possibilities of music licensing business,” and the article has been pre-published on Sync Exchange and Music2Deal websites (as well as Blog page on this website). Publication on Billboard.com is due in this early summer.

While we comprehensively covered many topics about music licensing business, these are based on what he has actually experienced and learned for years. We hope this article will be helpful for independent musicians and publishers who have been exploring possibilities of the music business on a daily basis.

If you’re interested in Mark’s other interviews with Gerald Casale (Devo), Martyn Ware (Heaven 17), Chuck D (Public Enemy), Mathew Knowles (Music World Entertainment, and Beyonce’s father), etc., check out Billboard.biz and Sync Summit pages. These precious talks with the music industry greats should be helpful for you as well.

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。
