“Music for Night Life”

With the concept of “music for nightlife,” Captain Funk’s latest album contains stylish and vibrant tracks that are enjoyable not only as dance music but also as music for driving at night. It pushes forward the retro-futuristic-jazz approach, which was displayed in the last release, “Metropolis.”

- Album Description -

The album opens with "Parade," an upbeat synth-funk track that features a crisp piano intro and dreamy synth leads. The following "Night Shift," with groovy basslines and mellow electric piano chords, represents the album concept as well as other jazz-funkish tracks such as "Stepping Out," "Aquarius," and "Skyline." "Love Supreme," an elegant orchestral disco, will take you to the imaginary dancefloor (of the '70s). "Midnight Express," an uplifting broken-beats jam featuring trumpet and flute leads and a horn section, gives you a thrill ride. "Rendezvous" and "Lumiere" are future-funk/vaporwave tracks reminiscent of '80s R&B mellow grooves.

- Album Description (Japanese) - 

“音の一大スペクタクルを体験せよ”

エピック・エレクトロニック・ミュージックで評価の高いDark Modelが、そのシネマティックなスケール感を一段とアップさせた新作を披露。『Odyssey』はオーケストレーションとクワイア（合唱隊）サウンド、そして強靭なビートが織りなす、音の一大スペクタクル。今回は、オリジナル・フル・アルバムに加えて、各楽曲のインストゥルメンタル・ミックスを収録した『インストゥルメンタル・エディション』の2枚同時リリース。

Dark ModelはCaptain Funkの名前でもよく知られる音楽プロデューサー、タツヤオオエによる、壮大でエモーショナルなオーケストラ・エレクトロニック・サウンドを特徴としたプロジェクト。新作『Odyssey』は、高い評価を得たセカンド・アルバム『Saga』を彷彿させる、ブロックバスター映画のスケール感とエレクトロニック・ミュージックの疾走感を兼ね合わせた楽曲群が収録されている。クワイアをフィーチャーした曲が増え、よりメロディックでアクセスのしやすいサウンドに仕上がっているのも特徴。

ファンタジー映画のオープニングを思わせる「Heavenly」のドリーミーな世界観に始まり、オオエらしいアップリフティングなビートとクワイアが印象的な「God of Dance」、シンセウェイブ・ミーツ・オーケストラ的なアプローチの「Promises」、ファイティング・スピリットに溢れたエピック・ヒップホップの「Achilles’ Revenge」、そしてウェスタン・ムービー的な佇まいを感じさせる「March of Fury」まで、幅広いバリエーションを持ったドラマティック・ミュージックが目白押しとなっている。

Dark Modelの音楽は数多くのメディアプロジェクトでフィーチャーされ、ハリウッド映画では「Elysium (エリジウム)」「ザ・ペーパーボーイ」「マネー・モンスター」の予告編や、レクサス、米最大手通信会社ベライゾン「ドロイド」、X Box「Forza Motorsport」、ブリザード・エンターテインメント「オーバーウォッチ」などの企業広告、ロンドンのコンテンポラリー・ダンスアカデミーNorthern Balletのコレオグラフィーなどに使用されている。セカンド・アルバム『Saga』は米国第16回インディペンデント・ミュージック・アワード の「ベスト・ダンス/エレクトロニカ・アルバム」を受賞。Dark Modelの人気曲の一つ「Judgment Day」は中国のストリーミングサービス NetEase Cloud Musicにおいて200万回再生を達成している。

Soul Funk Ska Moods : Groovy Ska and Rocksteady Mixes

MER - Soul Funk Ska Moods: Groovy Ska and Rocksteady Mixes (Album Sampler)

Marking MER’s new release, Cosmic Funk Expo vol.2 continues the journey begun in vol.1, distilling the essence of jazz-funk—a genre that captivated the world in the late 1970s and early 1980s—reimagined through modern electronic sounds. It features a tight groove woven from bouncy beats, undulating synth basslines, and percussive slap bass, layered with spacey synthesizer arrangements, piano, and brass. The result is a work brimming with the uplifting energy, futuristic flair, and mellow vibes characteristic of that era’s crossover jazz.
