Captain Funk-Sunshine-review-Spring Magazine-September

We would like to deliver a comprehensive press/media exposure report on Captain Funk “Sunshine” here. We appreciate that these magazines, radio programs, and websites took the time and featured “Sunshine.” Thank you so much!

Captain Funk “Sunshine” album page

– “Sunshine” album reviews & comments-

(original language: Japanese)

“Have you ever heard such catchy and all-direction dance music? “Weekend,” which sounds almost like being possessed by Michael Jackson in his prime, is particularly a gem. “(bounce)

“The way he pursues “pop” in this album is overwhelming, which almost makes me wonder if there has ever been high-quality dance music crafted like this. “(Oops!)

“If you’re looking for music to listen to, you should choose a good one like this. “(Spring)

“This album, filled with outstanding melody as sustainable as that of Brian Wilson and Kyohei Tsutsumi, clearly answers the question if popular music can survive in the 21st century.” (Studio Voice)

“This album includes straight-ahead radio friendly songs. His attitude toward pushing the envelope to make outstandingly pop music reminds me of his 90’s masterpiece “Bustin’ Loose EP.” (CD Journal)

Tomoyuki Tanaka to Captain Funk Sunshine

– Press & Chart Info-

“Weekend” got ranked No.5 at FM COOLO “Hits40″ (Japanese international radio station program).

ラスタファリズムで言う「イスラエル12支族」という概念は、迷えるアフリカ系ジャマイカの人々(特に貧困層)のことであって、現在騒がせている国家イスラエルとは関係がない。”Get up in the morning, slaving for bread, sir / So that every mouth can be fed”(朝起きて、パンのために奴隷のように働く。みんなの腹が満たせるように。)というこの曲がヒットしたのは、僕が生まれる1年前。そんなに昔のことでもない。

Captain Funk『Renaissance』を来月17日にリリースします。全曲新曲によるフル・アルバムです。このプロジェクトを始めてから30年近くになりますが、今作はこれまでで最もアップリフティングでダンサブルな作品に仕上がっているのではないかと思います。スローナンバーは一切なし。新生Captain Funkのサウンド、グルーヴ、そしてメロディをぜひお楽しみください。

(3/3) 創作や勉強、瞑想などの「長時間没頭できる習慣」を持つことが、単なる集中力の向上ではなく、「余計な物語工場への侵入を物理的にロックアウトする時間」を確保することにもつながる——そんな視点は、創作に携わる身としてもとても興味深い。もちろん、DMNを全て排除すべし!と言っているわけではなくて、毎日2時間のウォーキングが無理なくDMN時間を作ってバランスを取るのに役立っていると思う。
