先週末に久々にﾘﾊｰｻﾙでｽﾀｼﾞｵに入りました｡
hideka bandのﾄﾘｵ｡5ヶ月ぶりでしたが前よりﾘﾗｯｸｽしてていい感じです｡
なんとhidekaはUKから来日しているあのChapterhouseとUlrich Schnaussが出演する大阪のｲﾍﾞﾝﾄのｹﾞｽﾄで明日4月8日に1曲だけｽﾃｰｼﾞに立つらしく､今回のﾘﾊは久々のBandでのﾍﾞｰｽﾎﾞｰｶﾙなので予行練習のお手伝いって感じ｡僕とﾄﾞﾗﾑの周は行きません｡
実はChapterhouseが初来日したときに､Loco-Holidays時代hidekaは共演しているとのこと｡うらやましい｡
ﾘﾊのあとはようやく実現したhideka bandの新年会で居酒屋で飲んだくれた後､酒を買って僕の部屋に乱入してきて音楽ｶﾞﾝｶﾞﾝでﾊﾟｰﾃｨｰﾓｰﾄﾞでした｡周があんなに踊りが上手だったとは知らなかった｡MJかと思った｡ﾜﾝﾏﾝｼｮｰで踊り疲れた彼は僕のｳｫｰﾀｰﾍﾞｯﾄﾞを占領していました｡
そしてhidekaとUKのThe Pristinesのｺﾗﾎﾞｱﾙﾊﾞﾑを僕のﾚｰﾍﾞﾙから5月に世界に向けﾃﾞｼﾞﾀﾙﾘﾘｰｽします｡
｢Mayflower / hideka & The Pristines｣
This heartfelt collaboration took place over the networks, traversing thousands of miles.
It all began with an encounter between British Lo-Fi shoegaze artists, "The Pristines", and "hideka", Japan's pioneer shoegazer, following which they began to exchange music files together over the Internet.
Their songs began to take shape in gradual layers: Jon would send noisy sound sources captured on MTRs to hideka, hideka would soak up the British vibe and add her unique lyrics to their jointly-forged melodies. Feeling the British vibe, hideka even found elements of rock awakening deep inside her.
It's hard to pinpoint exactly which genre this new sound belongs to - should it be called shoegaze, Britpop or guitar pop? Either way, it's certain that this catchy, rhythmical chemical reaction is a melting pot of two styles from opposite sides of the ocean.
The long-awaited experimental collaboration is scheduled for global distribution release this May, and is aptly named "Mayflower".
The Pristines are a cult indie lo-fi psychedelic shoegaze band from Coventry, England.
After being part of the fanzine scene they began releasing records in the mid 90s for labels such as Pillarbox Red (UK), Elefant Records (Spa), A Turntable Friend (Ger) , Meller Welle Produkte (Ger) and Sunday (US), culminating in the 1995 album "Teen-Fraud, Pop-Whore (part one)" released on Sunday Records.
