Model Electronic Records, led by Tatsuya Oe, will release a new album under the moniker of MER. “Soul Funk Ska Moods” includes groovy & upbeat ska/rocksteady mixes of Tatsuya’s past songs, also deep downbeat tracks reminiscent of traditional UK & Jamaican dub sounds. Melodies in the songs such as “Avalon Ska” and “Hey Boy Ska” should be familiar to his fans. Get this album and enjoy your summer with these grooves!

[Updated on Aug 7th] Button Down Radio – Ska and Northern Soul, a radio broadcasting from Manchester, UK, chose MER and this album “Featured This Week.” We hope you tune in to the radio station and enjoy their music selection. We thank Martin and their staff for finding our music via Bandcamp.

「10月末までにCookie Consent(サイト訪問者にCookie使用の同意を得ること)を実装しないと、Clarityのアクセスデータ分析機能が制限されます」という通知がマイクロソフトから届いていた。ClarityにしてもGoogleアナリティクスにしても、僕が訪問者の行動を分析するためというより、手荒な情報収集を続ける彼らのために僕らが情報を「収集してあげている」感が強かった。というわけで、これらのエコシステムの呪縛から徐々に卒業すべくスクリプトを削除中。

先日、日米の充実感やストレスの質の違いについて書いたけれど、インドについては?中国は?ブラジルは?と聞かれると、まったく答えられない。世界の3分の2以上の人たちが何を話しているのかも聞き取れない。音楽はまだしも、彼らの間でどんなスポーツが熱いのかも把握していない。というわけで、インドでは国民的スポーツであるカバディの試合を立て続けに見て、この地球には自分が経験したことのない熱狂が、まだ山ほどあることを思い知らされている。

「たかが…されど…」という言い方には違和感がある。「たかが」で物事を深刻にとらえすぎず、執着しないよう自分に言い聞かせておきながら、「されど」で未練や割り切れなさを表す。この曖昧さや心の揺らぎ、余韻は、ある意味とても詩的で情緒的なのかもしれないけれど、結局誰も幸せにしない気がする(笑)。暴論かもしれないけれど、全部「たかが」で生きた方がストレスが少なく、本当に大切な時間と人を大切にして、充実した人生を送れるのではと思うのです。
