Jun 28, 2014

Tatsuya had an exclusive interview with Under The Gun Review, one of the Technorati‘s top 10 music blogs. While they mainly discussed the debut album of Dark Model, he talked additionally about my background, influences, and other projects such as Captain Funk. As this may be a rare interview of Tatsuya’s, we hope you will visit the interview page and enjoy the article.

We’d like to thank the interviewer Brian Lion and the website so much for having me. We hope you will visit the page and enjoy the article.

Also, Dark Model’s first album scored 9.5/10 on the magazine.

“Tatsuya Oe has created one of the best electronic music efforts in recent memory and easily one of the most grandiose and memorable of 2014. The fact that his self-titled album as Dark Model is merely a debut should be nothing short of intimidating to all other producers within the world of EDM.”

新作のミックスダウンが佳境を迎えている。一つの曲をずっと聴き込んでいると、どうしても耳も頭も近視眼的になっていく。この仕事を長く続けている割に(だからこそ、かな)、僕は「神は細部に宿る」という職人的なエリート意識や美学があまり好きではない。本当の意味で全てのプロセスに責任を持つならば、時間、クオリティ、そしてビジネスを俯瞰するバランス感覚と実行力、そして「モメンタム(勢い)」が不可欠になる。

昔、フランスのレーベルBarclayのアーティストのリミックスを手掛けた縁で、その後数年間新譜が届くようになった。当時彼らが注力していたのがフェミ・クティで、アルバムもリミックスもDJで重宝した。先日、久々に見た彼のライブ動画に1曲目から度肝を抜かれた。あの「Truth Don Die」が、当時のクラブマーケットに向けたプロダクションを遥かに凌駕する、爆発的な生演奏へと進化していたのだ。最高に血が沸き立つ音楽。

「ブックスマート(学識)」と「ストリートスマート(現場知)」。この二つは対立する能力のように語られがちだが、本質はトレードオフではなく「掛け算」の関係だと思う。つまり片方が備わっていても十分ではないし、伸びしろは幾らでもある。ただ、徒手空拳の生き方に憧れて生きてきた僕が、後者のタイプに強く惹かれるのには理由がある。彼らは、自分を偉く見せようとする虚栄心こそが最もスマートではない、という真理を肌感覚で知っているからだ。
