Commentary

I remember that Mr. Takkyu Ishino contacted my ex-label for this remix project as he had liked Captain Funk’s debut album “Encounter with.” As understanding the background, I tried to make a major alteration to the original mix which was straight techno and to transform it into an electronic funk track in the vein of the album. I even included my vocals which were recorded with a Roland vocoder I would often use for live performances at that time. Looking back 20 years later, I kind of surprise myself at how audacious remix it was.
