about

Evoked nice 80s New Wave
2nd album of Walk With The Penguin by a Japanese steelpanist Yoshio Machida and Serbian artists (ex. Cinc). The 1st album was regarded like: “postrocktronica”(Terrascope), “Cocorosie kind of home made fun”(Folkpop reviews), “spring in your step”(Delusions of Adequacy). This 2nd album has more New Wave feeling. Recorded in Belgrade and Tokyo between March and July. Respected to spirit of some cool Yugoslavian New Wave band in 80s like Film, Aerodrom, Idoli, Paraf, etc, the sound changed to more rock beat music comparing to 1st album. Based on New Wave beat, tastes from various kind of music are combined; acoustic, funk, synthpop, poetry reading… Worked with talented guest musicians: Tatsuhisa Yamamoto(Jim O’Rourke band), Paranel(cool Japanese rapper), Misha(New York based artist, Tomlab), etc.
With beautiful Steelpan melody (tr1), impression of sensitive guitar sound (tr2), transparent and silky female vocal (tr3), bright funk with a Japanese rapper (tr7), cover song of New Order (tr11), New Wave bossa (tr12), cheerful banjo sound (tr14), sweet Jap & Eng lyric song feat. Misha(tr16)…
Including warm and nostalgic illustration booklet by Djordje Ilic (Vo, G).

【80sニューウェーブを彷彿とさせる、爽快なキラキラ・サウンド】
スティールパン奏者=町田良夫と、セルビア(旧ユーゴ)のバンド「Cinc」メンバーによるバンド、2ndアルバム。これまでアモルフォンよりリリースされたCincやW.W.T.P.のアルバムの延長線上にありながら、80年代ニューウェーブの香りを注入、ネオアコ〜ボサノバ〜ファンクまで様々な音楽を英語、セルビア語、フランス語、日本語で歌っています。ニューオーダー名曲「Regret」カバーも収録。ゲストとして、ジム・オルーク・バンドの山本達久(Ds)、文系奇才ラッパー=パラネル(Low High Who?)、NYのシンガーMisha(Tomlab)ら参加。

スティールパンの音が美しいメロディー(tr1)、繊細なギター・サウンドが印象的な(tr2)、透明感ある女性ボーカル(tr3)、パラネル参加のキラキラ・ファンク(tr7)、ニューオーダー名曲をシンプルにカバー(tr11)、ニューウェーブ・ボサノバ(tr12)、陽気なバンジョーの響きがユニークな(tr14)、Misha参加の甘い西海岸ポップ(tr16)。ステレオラブ、ハイラマズあたりの陽気で爽やかテイストが好きな方、お勧めです！

Vo/Gのジョルジュ・イリッチによるキッチュでかわいいイラストレーション・ブックレット付き。
