For me, the only criterion for good music or not is "soaking or not soaking". RC Succession, The Rolling Stones, Sly Stone, Marvin Gaye and Martin Denny shut out all the day-to-day problems while listening. And he took me to Another World.
No matter how well a record is packed with famous performances or famous songs, it is useless to me if it does not guarantee such a sterile condition. I have always had a longing for concentration.
At first glance, it seems to be a contradiction, but what I think recently is, what makes KFC's family barrel that someone happened to buy as a souvenir so delicious? Whether it's food or music, I'm wondering if it's actually a roundabout way to ask myself too much. On the contrary, if you were a little passive, new music that you suddenly met would permeate your heart. A hit song that happened to be on the wire at an okonomiyaki restaurant could become a song in my life.

Good music and delicious food come over from there. Even if you don't play.

PROFILEKensuke Okuda

Born in Fukuoka in 1974, raised in Otsu City, Shiga Prefecture. With the piano I started when I was a child, I acquired a relative pitch that was as close as possible to an absolute pitch. A unique stance that mixes one side as a guitarist influenced by British Rock and one side as a keyboardist who loves elaborate chordwork, playing the core of the arrangement of Nona Reeves.
At the same time, he is expanding his field of activities in various fields such as live support, composition and arrangement, and production (Nice Hashimoto, Asako Toki, Suneohair, etc.).

  • Product name

    Women / The Rolling Stones

    The best thing about Stones is that I don't know if it's bright or dark. After all, the voice of Mick Jaguar. "Shattered", which decorates the last of this work, has a pitchless "flesh voice" that can be said to be rap-like, and has an addictiveness that makes you want to leave yourself for about half a day. I used to imitate when I was in middle school. The interlude that is "musically meaningless" is so cool that my heart stops every time I listen to it. What is this music

    Revenge of Changa / Frank Zappa

    The third song "20 short cigars" that the late Mr. Jinichi Uekusa loved very much. The essence of Zappa, which has produced so many masterpieces as the number of stars, lies in the jazz-like instrument that is just over two minutes. Do you get angry at a maniac saying, "What did you understand?"
    Intelligent and poetic. There are also science fiction and ancient times. There is also a taste of looking into the micro world. Unfortunately, this song ends soon. I can listen even if it is 50 times longer than this. Nevertheless, he is a great composer.

    Straight From The Heart / Patrice Rushen

    When I started listening to music like "Number One" in this album, I used to hate "something like aerobics". It's a big misunderstanding if you think about it, but you can understand the feeling. Now that I'm 34 years old, the feeling of syncoping and chords makes me think that it's a great treat, so I'd like to bring this song to Jim or another place and try to sweat while repeating with a roar. This person's work is the same as Zappa and there is no discarded song.

  • Product name

    Solo Piano / Gonzales

    The album "Soft Power" released last year was also the best of all songs, but this work, which is a collection of excellent piano instruments, functions as the best sleep-inducing agent in my room. It's like ballet music, it has a tango-like atmosphere, and when you go to bed while listening to this elegant music that you can hear even the painful melody reminiscent of old-fashioned songs, it is immediately at the bottom of the deep sea. So I don't really remember the last song.
