Captain Funk-interview at J-Pop World thumbnail

Tatsuya had an interview with “J-Pop World (https://www.j-popworld.com/),” American website dedicated to promoting Japanese music and related artists from around the world. They talked a very wide range of topics, from his musical background, his thoughts about remix & collaboration, to recent activities and future visions at Tatsuya’s label Model Electronic. It is very rare for him to have such a long, deep interview like this (and he enjoyed it very much).

We would like to thank and give a shout-out to the interviewer Mark for his interest in Tatsuya’s music and, above all, his deep knowledge of Japanese pop music!

Hope you’ll read and enjoy, it’s rare to talk about the detail like this.

About J-Pop World (quote from the website):

We try to highlight Japanese groups who are making an effort to grow a fan base in English-speaking countries, as well as highlight international groups who are heavily influenced by Japanese music and culture.

中国の水墨画家である牧谿の実物の作品は、まだ『漁村夕照図』(根津美術館)しか見たことがない。一番見たいのは大徳寺の『観音猿鶴図』だが、寺社が蔵する作品は、ふらりと訪れて眺められる類のものではないので、しばらくは写真で忍ぶほかない。長谷川等伯をはじめ、牧谿の影響を受けた日本の絵師は非常に多いのに、本国・中国では正当な評価を得られなかったという。そうしたことを意に介さぬような気配もまた、惹かれるところではある。

アルバムOE『Letting Go』の収録曲を、メドレー形式で10分ほどにまとめた動画を作りました。まずはこの動画で試聴いただき、その後は各サービスでアルバム全体を楽んでいただけると嬉しいです。Model Electronic関連の動画を最初にアップすることにしているサービスVimeoは、地味ながらも「ラウドネスノーマライゼーション(音量調整)」のような余計なガバナンスを行わず、広告収益にも執着しない、今どき珍しいクリエイター想いの風土があります。

故デイヴィッド・リンチの著書『Catching the Big Fish』のオーディオブックを聴いた。彼が熱心な(超越)瞑想の実践者であることは全く知らなかった。僕は毎日、頭を空っぽ(無)にする時間を作るようにしているが、続いてせいぜい5分ほど。瞑想よりも呼吸法の方に興味があるけれど、どちらも誰かから「メソッド」を教わろうと思ったことはない。そもそも瞑想や禅思想には、その根底に「将来の実益や成果(”Big Fish”)を求めず、今を生きる」という姿勢があると思うのです。
