Character experience

The first time I saw her name from Sin: Ned of the music colony, it was not intentional at first; At that time, when I was young, I only preferred English music, and even stubbornly believed that only English music was the best, and I always turned my nose up at japanese pop and refused to listen. How influential is Sin: Ned? Seeing this article, it's like the master said to you earnestly: "You can learn this set of kung fu and use it for life!"

About 98 years ago, when I finally asked my Japanese colleague to work in Hong Kong, she bought me her record. The first record I owned her was a collection of selected songs published by Toshiba EMI: * * * There were fifteen songs in all. After listening to their words, I am not as surprised as I thought, or I should frankly admit that my acceptance is still far behind that of the 1980s. At least I think her music is too strange. The new electronic classical music was followed by Haruomi Hosono's electric shock pop music. I was afraid of scaring you and singing Pachelbel with a childish female voice. Then suddenly an Okinawa folk song came at me. ...

What surprised me even more (unbearable) was of course her directionless singing. Opera Hua Dan, an imbecile, a pure singer, a vicious bitch, a girl who longs for love; Even if it is a short song for three or four minutes, I can't grasp what role she will play next to sing this song.

Of course, love from fear to destruction is another story.

I don't know much about her history (please let me know if there are any mistakes), but one thing is certain: Jun togawa is the kind of person who is destined to sing. Halmens, a newwave band composed of Koji Ueno, Guang Zhi Ishihara, Kenzo Sasuke, Bi Ryong and Quan Minlang, released its second album (the last album) on August1>, in which Jun togawa tried to sing the lead singer and singing part of three tracks for the first time. In less than a minute's song, Tokawa performed an opera aria commonly used in guernica, which was a blockbuster. With the dissolution of Holmes, all members have different developments. Among them, Koji Ueno and Hua Dan, who once made a guest appearance, formed guernica with peculiar musical style.

ゲルニカ

Named after Picasso's famous anti-war paintings in the 1930s, guernica's three members include Koji Ueno, who is in charge of music, Tai Tian Jian, who wrote lyrics/art design, and of course Jun togawa, who sings. At that time, they were classified as Nouvelle Vague, but those mini musicals/big bands interwoven by piano, a lot of orchestral music and electronic music were definitely not found in many Nouvelle Vague. Even, it is an unprecedented (it seems that no one? ) electronic neoclassicism. In addition to playing nostalgic music forms and shapes, Tokawa's blasting sound and vibration sound have been brought into full play here, which has also become the focus and feature of guernica. Haruomi Hosono's first album >; Appeared in 1982, it seems that they are bent on creating a unique music in mainstream music. The theme revolves around the transformation of post-war revival. Rich and vivid music, coupled with a large number of electronic music produced by synthesizers, makes people smile and move forward with nostalgia. Even the name of the album should be read from the right side of the envelope to the left!

What does Yuji want?

Whether guernica's unique voice made them dig out vigorously at that time is impossible to verify, but what is certain is that Jun togawa has become a high-profile name in the alternative music circle, especially when she launched her controversial first solo work. .

Undoubtedly > is one of Tokawa's most classic works. Previously, Tokawa was just a singer. Besides being a record producer, she also filled in more than half of the lyrics of songs. Pacser Bell's timeless classical music is accompanied by quotations from her own novels. Eternity is warm touch and sweet melody. More topical, even let the girl blockbuster is the theme song. The general meaning of the song is Yuji's magical transformation once a month; The central nervous system has moved to the uterus, but it has 100 thousand horsepower, but it can't be controlled. At this moment in 2005, it seems that it would be deviant to take women's menstruation as the content of the song, but Tokawa sang it as early as 20 years ago. This is more than the antithesis of the 1980 s, which strongly advocated the pure love line! ? It is conceivable that if Akina Nakamori sang it, her acting career would have ended earlier. However, for Jun togawa, how reasonable this is; She never deliberately put on a silent oath to please her fans. People who don't know her may say that she is deified, abnormal and eccentric. Wow. Only pay attention to her words and deeds, the news of her suicide failure (1), her photos, how many years she retired, the death of her sister Kyoko, and so on. But if you listen to her music carefully, you will know that everything she does is just to be herself, which is valuable.

Hallmen Japs-?

If Haruomi Hosono and his fame are the main reasons that make Jun togawa an alternative singer, then Holmes is an influential unit in her early music career. Needless to say, the importance of Koji Ueno, but in Tokawa's solo album, former members of Halmens such as Hikazumi Qiao Xiong and Izumi Minlang are responsible for some music performances. In the future, they will become full members of early Japs.

Unique Japanese female singers such as Haco, Phew and Tenko had many opportunities to perform abroad as early as 1980s, and even got the favor of many European and American record companies to publish records for them. Jun togawa is like a player who saved to win goals for the national team. Up to now, Jun togawa's voice has only been published once outside Japan, and it was published in Yoshihide Ohtomo in 2002 under the label of avant-garde performer JohnZorn >, among which, it was used as a singing part of three tracks.

Although Jun togawa's popularity outside Japan is not high, and fans from all walks of life are not easy to get in touch with, there will always be people who can appreciate the beauty. JohnZorn as early as 85 years ago >: One of the songs is "Hail to the Prophet Tokawa", and JimOrourke, an experimental genius, reprinted two Yapoos albums in 2003. And > write an article/detailed record review for the orchestra. Between the lines, you can see how much he admires Yapoos/ Tokawa: if they create the great status of Juntoga Walikaetherewafmichaeljackson, IT DBegreettoseeherflowingthemes, looking at the trains into the Zurichbanhof and toweringcoverCentralPark, it will be brilliant. However, the world has not progressed yet. ....

Yapoos is the longest band or sideline in Jun togawa. It consists of the first record >: from the beginning until 2004, Tokawa will still perform live under the name of Yapoos. But with the change of players, Japs's musical orientation has also changed obviously. Compared with the first generation of relatively popular and personal works, after entering the 1990s, Yapoos' voice has obviously become heavier and more electronic, especially in >: one of the introductory songs is marching towards music such as IDM. To 1998 >: It comes with drums. However, the new album >: has never been released. Yapoos' latest orientation is only known to fans who have watched their recent live broadcast.

Recently, in addition to being busy with the previous JunTogawaBand, Tokawa, together with the guitarist Yamamoto Kutu of Most, actively participated in the performance of the orchestra Tricom and formed a new orchestra Dongkou.

Edge look back

Jun togawa, who has participated in many movies and stage plays, has also performed many explosive things in her singing career. Her elder sister is very interested in collecting insects. She used to play with dragonflies and spiders. Monks, lobsters, schoolgirls, witches, flower girl and so on.

However, no matter what she is playing with, her eyes are still equally unpredictable. > it's hard to look back at Nakagawa Shoichi on the inside page. >,> The eyes on the cover are full of evil and despair. You look at her, she looks at you. I'm sure she's not giving you unattainable contempt, but anyway, she's always a little chilling. And her lyrics, such as songs with normal style, are inseparable from red tears. In other songs she wrote, words related to sexual desire, morbidity or violence are often found, such as vomiting, blood, infinite hell, child sexual violence, death consciousness and so on. After all, what was she thinking? Even if we know her mind, can we understand it?

In the past, there were always not many ways to know more and more interesting Jun togawa. Even when I mentioned Tokawa to my Japanese colleagues, their reaction was just: "Sheiscrazy!" It seems that even in Japanese local music circles, she has never been a popular category (2) (it is said that only three Yapoos songs can be found in Japanese karaoke * *), not to mention that she will be a first-line and second-line female singer. Later, I met a Japanese friend, who is a rare congenial person. He is one of the few people who like Jun togawa. At least his peers don't listen to Chuanchuan's music. Therefore, he was surprised why a Hong Kong person was so interested in her. She described Tokawa as "Sheisveryeccentric", and I agree. It is this arrogant and indifferent character that brings extremely derogatory praise such as "crazy" and "eccentric".

In recent years, I have tried my best to collect her records. The ultimate trio set from Japs to guernica, her solo works in the 1980s, and even vinyl for Helmand's singing some tracks are finally available, except for live recording. And the sound of nostalgia in the sixties and seventies.

Thanks to the help of my friends, the last two records can finally be collected, and I can finally have most of the official albums published by idol as excited as a small fan. (Unfortunately, it's just an album, and she has many guest appearances and sideline jobs ...) This undoubtedly rekindled my love for her music; I know, I shouldn't complain that I miss her so much. In this small life, I can meet Jun togawa's good music and look for her history. I can't say much about most of her works. When I am lucky enough to meet my sister in person, I will naturally thank her.

* * Post-press: According to textual research, this is not the case.

(1) Jun togawa1committed suicide in 995; Ironically, Ky?ko Togawa committed suicide in 2002.

(2) Jun togawa has never participated in a red and white song concert.

Since 1980s, Jun togawa and his participating bands have published a lot of works. Although I like every movie, I can't say that every movie is a masterpiece. But I believe that the publication of each issue is worth pondering and occupying more space, because these are the reflections and important milestones of Tokawa's multi-directional music positioning and evolution over the years.

There is not enough writing, so write a brief introduction here.

Album tracks:

Album title: Jade and Jade Sample

Issue time: 84.0 1.25

Needless to say, this is definitely the most important work in all Jun togawa's records.

Compared with guernica, Jun togawa is quite different in music and participation. Besides writing most of the lyrics, Jun togawa is also the producer of this record. At the same time, > also marks that Jun togawa successfully presented her unique changeable singing voice and her crazy characteristics of schizophrenia in the pop music scene of that year, and created a new road that only Jun togawa can take risks (unimpeded? ! ). Because of this record, she has been praised as the first generation of "incredible singers" in recent years, and has been reported by the media as the teacher and mother of Ringo Ashe, Cocco, Kojima Mayumi and others.

Of course, in my mind, only Jun togawa is incredible.

Just the first song, the music played by organ twist has made people feel heavy, and Tokava's voice has also been processed. The feeling of pulling away is like an elf living alone at the bottom of the water singing the addiction and myth of love.

Among Jun togawa's many songs, the most emotional (in other words, the most shouted) can be said to be this song adapted from the folk songs of the Andes in South America. The lyrics describe how persistent love is: if you love me, you can hit me or kill me. I'm just a piece of meat like a pig or a cow. When there is no love, I begin to rot. After all, I'm just a piece of meat like a pig and an ox. The lyrics of different colors written by Jun togawa are so direct and disturbing, but why are they disturbing? ! Isn't this the idea that everyone has been pursuing? !

It's a pity that her indignation and helplessness can be heard from her singing.

Yu Ji's idea is quite experimental, but behind half reading and half singing, the sound of current is a bit sinister. It's the darkest song in the whole disc. Listening to Jun togawa's signature singing is the first choice, and it is a matter of course. Yu Ji, whose menstruation is surging, cooperates with Haruomi Hosono's techno voltage to push the valley, and the physiological and psychological changes come together for you. Isn't this a story circulated by our fans?

And they are all excellent and touching slow-motion works, especially Pacser Bell's Eternal Classical Music, whose lyrics are even more infectious. Immortal melody, string, true singing is the ending.

For Tokawa fans, the word "Yuji" has been directly equated with Jun togawa and is her symbol; A symbol, a cult can, a lovely, an incredible.

The live recording was made in Harajuku in 1984. I completely heard Tokawa's excellent singing performance here. The best performance is that the change of voice in harmony is fast enough and hard enough; Not touching strings (punk version), but the finale. My sister has become a tiger, and I believe I will be excited about this makeover version at the scene.

It was initiated in the name of Jun togawa unit, and its members also included Yukihiro Takahashi. Because I like her album best. Because music and my sister's singing skills are further unique and cheap!

It's very popular, and some of the drums are loud enough to scratch the ears. It is rare for her to sing "I will never forget you …" affectionately.

This is an Okinawa folk song. Of course, Okinawa's characteristic singing has never been difficult for her. Even the first half of the primary school songs were adapted as harshly as those from the military academy, but this elder sister's singing skills are really enough to make people believe that she is a primary school student. The second half was replaced by lively and relaxed silver music.

The Cd version has two more songs than the vinyl version, namely and, both written by the eldest sister.

All of them are personal collections. The key is to have this rare B-side song, which is a cover of another Halmens song, but only a CD was released that year. But in addition, there is a more crazy and excessive live recording here; The shocking scene is to hear her desperate roar and scream and the high-pitched whine at the end, which is invincible. Other recorded songs also summarized her important personal works.

Jun togawa's "Ten Years of Artistic Life" was published, which was adapted from the old Japanese songs in the Showa era. The six cover tracks were arranged by P-Model's old partner Koji Ueno and Heping Zejin, and each person was responsible for three tracks. At first, the sound of fried beans in vinyl and the heavy singing in Chuanchuan were similar to the nostalgic sound in the sixties and seventies. This is Isao Tomita's early TV theme song.

It is worth mentioning that Sister Zhong's styling, makeup, hairstyle and even record producer are all arranged by her.
