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.

「(広告や商業)デザインは自分を消すことだ」という意見があると聞く。僕の生業では、表現から自分を消したら終わり。ただ、万が一その手の仕事をするならば、商品やサービスを実際に使う生活者(エンドユーザー)にとってその表現が「善かどうか」で判断したい。現実的にはお金を払うクライアントがOKを出してくれれば仕事として成立するが、課題を解決し、本当にハッピーにしなければいけない相手はその先にいる。「自分問題」はそもそも課題の次元にはない。

阪神・淡路大震災から31年。あの日、仕事場へ着くと皆がテレビに釘付けで、画面越しに戦慄が走った。1月17日の早朝に地震が発生してから、実家と連絡がついたのは数日後の夜だったと記憶している。両親は家具の下敷きになりかけながらも無事だった。東京にいた僕は安否を案じることしかできなかったが、震災はその後の自分の生き方を確実に変えた。
