In Focus: Roc Marciano 230824

Leading this month’s Carhartt WIP Radio show is @red-lebanese, a French publishing house and independent record label, whose music production arm operates under Studio X8. 

The platform was founded in 2012 by visual artist Pablo Jomaron and musician Quentin Leroy (AKA @madreyy), who bonded as childhood friends over a shared love of graffiti, art, and hip-hop. With a focus on physical media, Red Lebanese has released books and zines, as well as cassette tapes and vinyls from the likes of Rio de Janeiro rapper @adrianobico and Bordeaux MC Prosper.

For this episode of the Carhartt WIP Radio show, Jomaron and Mad Rey have incorporated their collage of influences into a mix, which includes syrupy rhythms from Lime G, synthwave sounds from  @buntlax, and lo-fi acid from Doukkala.

宇治香園からのご挨拶

2015年、宇治香園の創業百五十年時の記念品に端を発するTealightsoundは、「記念品であり、茶をテーマとした協働作品であり、コンセプト媒体である」という特異な成り立ちにもかかわらず、多くの方々のご協力のもと、おかげさまで現在11作を数えています。

本年は、そのTealightsoundが11年目を迎える年であり、これまで10年間の流れを踏まえ、未来を展望するような媒体を制作したいと考えました。

そこで、文筆家・選曲家の原雅明さんに、音楽的な観点からこのシリーズを捉えていただき、概論をお書きいただきました。

また、Tealightsound最初の作品、「SOMETHING IN THE AIR─the soul of quiet light and shadow layer─」を制作いただきましたCOMPUMAさんには、11作品の楽曲を使用したミックス作品を制作いただきました。

いずれも「読むお茶」「聴くお茶」としてお楽しみいただけましたら幸いです。

なお、表題はCOMPUMAさんのミックス作品のタイトルが素晴らしく、ご本人の許可を得て使用させていただきました。感謝申し上げます。

宇治香園 小嶋 宏一

"Tealightsound"について  

宇治香園は、お茶の提供を通じてすこやかな暮らしのお手伝いをしたいと考えています。

そしてそのお茶の核心は、豊かな彩りと響きに満ちた体感にあります。

一般的にお茶は単なる飲み物として捉えられていますが、それを飲む瞬間、たった一口の刹那でさえつぶさに観察すると、そこには絶えざる変化を伴う体感が見出されます。そしてこの感覚は、オーロラのように変化する色のようであり、お寺の鐘の音がアタックから減衰してゆくゴオォォォォォンという音を聴いたときの感覚のようでもあります。

宇治香園はこの三つの体感の要素、茶と光と音の統合を、Tea + Light + Sound =“Tealightsound"として探求しています。

この試みが、すばらしい音楽、アート、写真、デザインの融合として楽しんでもらうきっかけとなるだけでなく、茶を淹れ味わうことに伴う地理的及び環境的制約を越えて、お茶の核心にふれてもらうきっかけにもなることを願っています。

On "Tealightsound"

Ujikoen, a Japanese tea company founded in 1865 in Kyoto, Japan, has a vision of bringing joy through the quintessence of sencha Japanese tea. The company's experiment “Tealightsound" is produced based on its concept that tea (Japanese tea), light, and sound are—despite their different appearances—similar in terms of the invisible sensations they generate that continuously change.

Although Japanese tea is generally recognized as simply a drink, careful observation of the drinking moment, even a sip or taste, will reveal a sensation involving continuous change. And this sensation strongly resembles to the one evoked when hearing the attack and decay of a church bell sound, ding-dooooong, as well as to ever-changing colors (like the aurora borealis).

The experiment integrates and explores the three elements: tea, light, and sound. The company hopes it will be an opportunity not only to enjoy the fusion of wonderful music, art, photography, and design but also to experience the quintessence of sencha Japanese tea beyond geographical and/or environmental constraints involved in making and tasting Japanese tea.

Goodie Mob - Investigative Reports On Sesame Street (ft. U-God)

Los Angeles based DJ, multi-instrumentalist, rapper, and music producer Madlib let his mind free wheeling and prepared a Carhartt WIP Radio show that accompanies the Medicine Show Europe Tour 2012 featuring Freddie Gibbs, J Rocc, and himself. His mix features unreleased, unheard, and exclusive Madlib material in combination with some known stuff out of his musical universe. An edgy twisted, 47 minutes long collage that melds hip hop and audio drama into one big psychedelic trip.
