Trico!這位日本女音樂人,2005年出版第一張專輯《愛家》(Love Home) 即引起樂迷注意,人們對她充滿女性觸覺,散發溫柔寧靜氣質的音景留下深刻印象,日常生活的環境採音、溫暖懷舊的手風琴、玩具鋼琴與小風琴演奏,在這色澤豐富的音樂氛圍中,家的氣氛因聲音產生質的變化。
作為一名職業音樂人,Trico!平日以Rie Yoshihara的名字創作廣告配樂與擔任伴奏樂手。另外還有與吉他手Yusuke Onishi合組Small Color,除了音樂,Trico!日常還有著廣泛的不同興趣,從懷舊物件、玩具、建築到玩具相機,到烹調、花草、旅遊等等,這些興趣豐富了她的生活,也反映在她對音樂的表達上。
今年她終於出版了第二張個人專輯《日常之旅》(Everyday Trip),以聲音表現她如何在平凡生活中發現不平凡,每天生活都可以是一段新的旅程,處處皆是小發現大喜悅,Trico!繼續以她最愛的手風琴、玩具鋼琴與小風琴伴奏著日常音景的瞬間,柔美的電子聲響與環境聲響、玩具鋼琴的可愛旋律與加料鋼琴的有趣音色並置,音樂傳遞出一股平靜和諧之美。專輯還特別邀請Hauschka (FAT CAT)、Masayuki Ishii (aka TICA)、Tomo Yamaguchi 、Hiroshi Funato aka (Fuchigamitofunato)與杉本佳一 (Filfla/Four color)助陣,另外還特別收錄了“on a bright day”的MTV。

BRAGILE / miho folio

miho folio is a solo project by Toshihiro Horio who roots his musical inspiration from various pop music, Brazilian and Jazz music such as Eric Dolphy and Joan Gilberto."Bragile" is his debut album - a snapshot of those various roots music blending together.
The layers of hip hop flavored cut-up phrases forms an impressive harmony and the simple melodies are singing the positive feeling gently. The electronics flows to a tender and deep atmosphere and arouses the shimmering beautiful ambient-scape.
"Bragile" is full of pop essences - unexpected developments, comfortable chords, lyrical melody senses, uplifting rhythm patterns etc and the more you listen, the more you will get captured by the music. And then, you will find yourself elevating moderately to the colorful tones.
RADIO - ACOUSTIQUE / masayasu tzboguchi trio

Pianist & Composer, Masayasu Tzboguchi (from Tokyo Zawinul Bach, DATE COURSE PENTAGON ROYAL GARDEN) drops a new album showing new directions of acoustic/electronic Jazz. This is his first album in this kind of project where various elements such as afro funk, electronica, reggae and avant-garde mixes into the jazz based sound. Indeed the birth of cool & thrilling music.
This is a "reconstruction" album using original performance of the trio; Masayasu Tzboguchi (Piano), Masaaki Kikuchi (AC. Bass), Nobuo Fujii (Drums) . These 10 tracks were made under a concept to deconstruct the original materials from this performance and build them up again in a contemporary method/perspective.
The organic combination of the electronic effects with their performances of mellow ballad, rhythmic afro funk, freeform session, poly-swing track (3 people playing in 3 different tempos) resulted to something original showing new directions of his works that would expand the definition of jazz. In this album, you could also hear collaboration works with other foreign/domestic artists within the same concept - Jan Jelinek, AOKI takamasa, Sora, DIll and Pardon Kimura rearranges and recomposes their original materials.
