WRWTFWW RecordsがInteriorのメンバーDaisuke Hinataによる1989年の幻のソロ・アルバム『Tarzanland』をヴァイナルで初リリース。カリフォルニアの陽光を浴びた環境音楽、ミニマルなプロト・チルウェイヴ、海風が心地よく吹き抜けるようなシンセ・メロディが詰まった一枚。Steve WinwoodやSteely Danを思わせる洗練された空気感に、John Hughes映画のサウンドデザインを思わせる情景が重なり、シンプルな幸福が広がる。  

Daisuke HinataはInteriorのメンバーであり、作曲家・プロデューサーとしても活躍するグラミー賞ノミネート・アーティスト。WRWTFWW Recordsはこれまでに、Haruomi Hosonoプロデュースによる1982年のセルフタイトル作、そしてドイツの環境アーティストNILS-UDOのために制作された未発表作品『Sculpture of Time (Apocalypse)』をリリース。どちらも高い評価を受け、いまも入手可能。  

シンセサイザー・ミュージック、環境音楽、チルアウト、80〜90年代のムード、海沿いのドライヴや陽の光を浴びる時間を愛する人へ。350gsm仕様の重量スリーヴ、帯付き限定ターコイズ＆ライトピンク・ヴァイナルで登場。

WRWTFWW Records presents its third collaboration with Japanese electronic/ambient/synth-pop crew Interior, this time with the release of band member Daisuke Hinata’s forgotten solo treasure from 1989: Tarzanland. The feel-good/smooth ride LP is available as a limited-edition turquoise and light pink vinyl housed in a heavyweight 350gsm sleeve with obi strip.

Available on vinyl for the first time ever, Tarzanland is late 80s California sun-soaked kankyo ongaku, minimalistic proto-chillwave, the synth melody of a pleasant Sunday breeze as the ocean waves breathe in and breathe out. Steve Winwood and Steely Dan come to mind as the ambient sound design of an imaginary John Hughes movie unfolds as all pieces of the puzzle come together for a blissful journey of simple pleasures.

Daisuke Hinata is a Grammy-nominated artist, composer, producer, and member of Interior. This is WRWTFWW’s third release centered around the work of the band, following the reissue of their Haruomi Hosono-produced self-titled debut (1982) and the first release ever of Sculpture of Time (Apocalypse), their rarely heard before commissioned piece for German environmental artist NILS-UDO. All still available on We Release!
