The album is produced by Neil Young and John Hanlon and was recorded in Colorado in April & May 2019.

ンガーソングライター柴田聡子の面目躍如! 最強のサウンドを従えた、超ポップ、超キャッチーなグッドメロディーてんこ盛り。 ニューアルバム『がんばれ!メロディー』、出し惜しみなしの全13曲でいよいよ登場! 参加ミュージシャンはイトケン(Dr.)、かわいしのぶ(B.)、岡田拓郎(G.)、ラミ子(Cho.)ほか。 バンド形態「柴田聡子inFIRE」としてライブを積み重ねてきた最高で最強なミュージシャンを中心に、前作『愛の休日』において、くるり・岸田繁プロデュース曲のエンジニアリングを担当した宮﨑洋一が全面参加。他にも素敵なゲスト・ミュージシャンが参加。 2ndアルバム『いじわる全集』以来のセルフ・プロデュース・アルバム。 2ndの剥き身を晒すような生々しさが、柴田聡子という「個性の中核」を惜しげも無く提示した名盤だったとするなら、今作は頭の中で鳴っている音楽を余すところなく、そのまま作品として昇華した、柴田聡子という「才能の総体」といえる。 マシンビートは『愛の休日』『ワンコロメーター』を経て柴田の血肉となり、超強力なバンド・メンバーにガッチリと脇を固められたことで、柴田のサウンド・プロデュースが水を得た魚状態に。 結果、サウンドの強度が格段に上がりつつ、「これぞシンガーのサウンド!」と言えるものになりました。 その強力なサウンドの中で柴田聡子が常に最も存在感を保ち続けるのは、生半可な歌とメロディーでは到達できない境地。 アルバムタイトル『がんばれ!メロディー』 は柴田聡子が自分に送ったエールのようでもあります。

Neil Young / The Stray Gators genre: Rock
release date 2019-06-07 publisher: Reprise
The next chapter of Neil Young’s ongoing archival series will spotlight a concert he played with the Stray Gators at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa on February 5th, 1975. Titled simply TUSCALOOSA, it will come out June 7th on a single CD and a three-sided vinyl album with etched artwork on side four. “It’s from the period right around Harvest and Tonight’s the Night,” Young told Rolling Stone earlier this year. “For me, it’s edgy. It’s like those mellow songs with an edge. It’s really trippy to be down in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and singing those songs from Harvest and the songs that we were doing for Time Fades Away before it came out. I found this thing and it had such a great attitude to it. I just loved the whole night, so I put that together with [engineer] John Hanlon.”

The Good, the Bad & the Queen genre: Rock
release date 2018-11-16 publisher: Rykodisc (Warner Music Austria)
Merrie land is the second album from The Good, The Bad and The Queen, a band comprising of Damon Albarn, Paul Simonon, Tony Allen and Simon Tong. Their debut album from 2007 traced a journey from the English music hall tradition to West Africa and Afrobeat, zigzagging through the West Indies and its reggae and dub, back to England and London's punk scene, all the while taking in a strand of British beat music from the '50s right through to Britpop. The result was a record specific to a place and mood but with a background that was geographically wide-ranging. Now the four musical storytellers are back with a new studio album titled Merrie Land. Produced by Tony Visconti and The Good, The Bad and The Queen was completed in London and Wales this year, during the current ongoing period in which the UK is preparing to leave the European Union, Merrie Land is a questioning good-bye letter, a series of observations and reflections on Britishness in 2018. Even though it has been over 10 years since the band last released a record, the timing could not be more apt – there could not be a more perfect band to untangle the optimism, disorientation and confusion in the atmosphere today. With Merrie Land, the band taps into a creative symbiosis of past and future, drawing inspiration from their shared glittering musical histories and wrapping the hybrid results in a brilliantly postmodern yet thoroughly British package. The album sees the band’s focus move beyond London with a beautiful and hopeful paean to the Britain of today - an inclusive Britain - and the possibilities of the future. In the band’s own words, Merrie Land is a ten song lament of Anglo-Saxosentialism marking the reluctant end of a relationship, and about picking up the pieces and seeing what can be salvaged. The band set a beautifully muted palette and lustrous finish to bring out a mood that is bruised yet unapologetically defiant and optimistic, and carries the underlying message: we will survive. In times of metaphysical trauma, the people need to forge ahead and wear armour. Here it is, set to the mood music of a nation about to be broken yet undefeated.

Phew genre: Electronic
release date 2017-03-18 publisher: MESH-KEY
Propulsive rhythms from early drum machines, whirring electronics and dreamlike vocals make for a jaw-dropping late-career masterpiece from legendary Japanese musician Phew, recorded solo at Phew’s home in Tokyo. Phew’s career began in the late 1970s as lead singer of Osaka punk group Aunt Sally (whose only full-length was released by Vanity Records in 1979). Ryuichi Sakamoto produced her first solo release in 1980, a two-song single, and in 1981 Pass Records released her debut album, a bonafide classic recorded with original Can members Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit at Conny Plank’s studio in Germany. She’s forged a singular path over the past thirty-plus years, collaborating with folks from DAF, Einstürzende Neubauten, Boredoms, Anton Fier, Bill Laswell and more. It’s borderline sacrilegious to compare an artist as unique as Phew with anyone else, but for those unfamiliar with her work, “Light Sleep” might be described as a more animated Nico singing (in Japanese) for early Suicide.

約1年ぶりのフルalbumは阿部芙蓉美+薫國(from DadaD)との共同プロデュースにして2人のみで作り上げた新しい阿部芙蓉美の世界。 以前のフォークのイメージとは違い、洋楽のような重低音に彼女の歌声がとけ込む楽曲が目立つ。 阿部芙蓉美の歌声は勿論のこと、本来のサウンドセンスが更にグッと前に出た作品になっている。 また彼女の独特の詞の世界感は相変わらずユーモアだったり、時に卑屈だったり、そして憧れをも感じさせるが、おしつけがましくないところが魅力のひとつ。 album通して33分ではあるが、1曲1曲が内容濃いので満足度も申しぶんない。 何度もリピートしたくなるのは間違いないalbumになりました。

Kikagaku Moyo / 幾何学模様 genre: Rock
release date 2016-05-13 publisher: Guruguru Brain
Like a long journey this record unfolds itself through many layers. Fans of Kikagaku Moyo will be comforted by the soft vocals harmonies and warm Sitar but what sets this release apart is the refinement of the band’s songwriting and their delicate execution. Side A begins with a pair of travelling songs where the interplay between the vocals, guitar, and sitar lift and suspend you on an unexpected journey. The patient listener is rewarded by tracks like “Trad” and “Silver Owl” that demonstrate the masterful balance the band has between soft and loud; chaos and order, or being both cold and tender at the same time. “House in the Tall Grass” takes the listener by the hand on a comfortable quest through destinations both familiar and unknown. It is a natural step forward for the band and perhaps the most refined example of their style to date.

The Roxy Music front man is a longtime fan of the great man Dylan having first recorded a swaggering version of Hard Rain抯 A-Gonna Fallin 1973.

release date 2018-08-24 publisher: !K7 Records
Renard Bleu marks the first new music released by Takada in nearly twenty years; it would be difficult to overstate the importance of her return to the public eye. Her first solo record, 1983's Through the Looking Glass, has been rediscovered and heralded as a lost classic; the influence of her percussion trio, the Mkwaju Ensemble, continues to permeate and inspire a new generation entranced by its lucid beauty, playfulness, and sensual patience. Takada has performed in numerous film score orchestras, including the ensemble for Akira Kurasawa’s Dreams, coincidentally a key influence on Renard Bleu. Le Renard Bleu, the new musical and cinematic collaboration between Lafawndah and composer Midori Takada, and filmmakers Partel Oliva, takes a cross- generational echo as ground zero for recovering a crucial myth for uncertain times: the blue fox.

Mac DeMarco genre: Folk
release date 2012-10-22 publisher: Captured Tracks
When the then 21-year old Mac DeMarco released his debut Rock and Roll Night Club 12" in the Spring of 2012, it was accompanied by a barrage of bizarrely funny promo videos, wildly unhinged live performances and a not-so-subtle disparate range of promo photos. The glam facade was purely that, an image that was manufactured for fun to confuse the stiff and compartmentalizing world of indie music journalists. But it wasn t all a jest, as that EP covered a whole range of music styles that were latent in the ex-Makeout Videotape frontman s already impressive slough of cassette-only releases. The sincere and warm Mac who sang "Only You" was the same lipstick-wearing sleazoid that crooned "Baby s Wearing Blue Jeans" and that suited him and his listeners just fine. Six months later is his first proper full length, Mac DeMarco 2. As opposed to RNRNC, 2 is a concerted effort to produce a cohesive work that showcases Mac s natural ability as a songwriter, singer and producer. With a new arsenal of recording gear, the fidelity has substantially improved without compromising the immediacy and organic quality of his prior releases under any monicker. The results are immediately rewarding, from the warm "Cooking Up Something Good" to the heartfelt "My Kind of Woman. " It s obvious Mac is presenting himself musically in the most sincere way possible, no matter what happens in his wild videos or live shows. "Freaking out the Neighborhood, " Mac s apologetic ode to his loved ones about such public behavior, shows that Mac DeMarco is still with us, coming along for the ride, getting everyone else in trouble. Even so, the maturation process of Mac DeMarco, recording artist, is in full swing. He did, after all, turn 22 before this record.

尼尔 扬 Neil Young genre: Rock
release date 2018-11-30 publisher: Reprise
Neil Young announced his plan to release Songs for Judy, a live album drawn from his November 1976 U.S. tour. The 22-song LP includes solo acoustic performances of all-time classics like “Heart of Gold,” “After the Gold Rush” and “The Needle and the Damage Done,” along with a number of rarer selections, including one song, “No One Seems to Know,” that has not appeared on any previous official release. Young spent the majority of 1976 on the road with Crazy Horse or on the ill-fated Stills-Young Band tour, which he famously dropped out of midway through that summer. He also found time to make Hitchhiker, the lost solo acoustic studio album that he recorded in August 1976 — three months before the shows documented on Songs for Judy — but kept in the vault until last fall. At the November 1976 shows featured on Songs for Judy, Young performed a solo acoustic opening set before returning to the stage for a harder-rocking performance with Crazy Horse. These shows have been widely praised and discussed by Young fans for years, but this is their first official release.
