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.

この「Rakuen」という曲は、2019年リリースの『Oceans』に収録されているが、最初のバージョンを作ったのはそのずっと前、OE『Director’s Cut』を制作していた頃だったと思う。曲の雰囲気の通り南の島をイメージして作ったのだけれど、当時実際に行ったことのある島は沖縄くらいだった。その後、常夏の島で暮らしてみた後でこの曲を聴くと、頭に浮かぶ映像が俄然リアルなものになった。年中半袖&短パン生活を目指して、今日も頑張るか(笑)。

『ピクサーの裏側』という記録映像を観た。脚本や衣装など、専任の担当者が作った雛形に対し全参加者が意見を出し、それが原案よりも良ければ即座に採用・修正される、徹底的に民主主義的なチームワークが貫かれていて驚く。「最大公約数的なベスト」を追求するのはピクサーの真骨頂だが、近年のディズニー周辺のクリエイションの傾向として「“正しく”作らねばならない」という道徳的/倫理的な規律が強くなりすぎて、現場が窒息しないか心配も少々。

自律神経とホルモン。日常でよく耳にする言葉だが、専門家ですらその「仕組みの違い」は理解していても、「どちらが原因か」を特定するのは極めて難しいという。ところで、テストステロンは誤解されがちな「攻撃のスイッチ」ではなく、年齢や性別を問わず、自分が属する場所で「いかに価値ある存在であり続けるか」を支える、極めて“社会的なホルモン”らしい。「自分らしく、社会の中で価値を感じて生きる」ことは、誰にとっても大切なことだと思う。
