JOHN ROSEBORO / JohnnyJ

ohn Roseboro（ジョン・ローズボロ）のフルアルバムとしては２作目でしょうか。EPとかSingleがたくさんあって、そういえば最近Mei Semonesと、”Waters of March (Agua de Março)"をSingleでリリースしていました。は、あの三月の水です。でもそれらは本作に収録されていないみたい。 John Roseboroはハイチ系アメリカ人で、ブルックリンを拠点とするシンガー・ソングライターです。2021 年末の時点では、なんと家も車も家族もなく、銀行には全くお金が全く残っていなかったといいます。しかしNYに引っ越して仲間たちと音楽を作り上げます。彼の前作"Human Nature"ももちろん素晴らしかったのですが、どこか素朴な感触があって、それが彼の特色でもあったのです。で本作はどうかというと、そんな感触はそのままに、サウンド面での面白さが際立っています。前作同様ボサノヴァ的な彼のガット・ギターが中心であることは変わりませんが、管楽器、フレットレス・ベース、ウッド・ベース、Rhodes、ドラム、パーカッション。そして仲間たちの暖かいコーラスと動きのあるリズム、もちろん彼の朴訥な歌声とで、賑やかでインティメイトな仲間同士の祝祭のように、しかし聴いたことのないユニークな空気を与えてくれます。これも今年のベストだなぁ。

Mei Semones Announces Debut EP 'Kabutomushi'

Mei Semones, the 23-year-old Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter and guitarist, announces her new EP and Bayonet Records debut, Kabutomushi, out April 5th, and shares a new single/video, “Inaka.”   “Inaka” follows the previously released “Wakare No Kotoba,” a “lovely slice of indie pop with some serious guitar chops” (Brooklyn Vegan), which also will appear on her forthcoming EP. Kabutomushi sees Semones refine her sweetly evocative blend of jazz, bossa nova and math-y indie rock, chronicling infatuation, devotion, vulnerability, and saying goodbye to some of her closest relationships, complete with sweeping strings, virtuosic guitar-playing and heartfelt lyrics sung in both English and Japanese. Throughout the EP, Semones’ straightforward vocal delivery calls to mind that of the late bossa nova great Astrud Gilberto, while also having drawn comparisons to Japanese contemporaries Ichiko Aoba and Lamp.   One of the more indie rock-leaning songs Semones has written, “Inaka” still has glimpses of jazz harmony throughout, with cinematic strings adding a romantic flair alongside Semones’ guitar lead.   “I wrote this song shortly after moving to Brooklyn in the autumn of 2022, when I was feeling defeated and exhausted everyday,” Semones says. “I’ve grown to love the city, but at the time I was idealizing losing all ambition and moving to the countryside with my partner, hence the name of the song "Inaka" which means “countryside” in Japanese. Looking back at that time, I realize the city wasn’t the issue, I was just tired.” In the video, directed by Lucas O.M., Semones starts in New York City’s Lower East Side, before taking the train to her friend’s farm in Old Lyme, CT, visualizing the track’s theme of escaping the city and moving somewhere more pastoral.  

WATCH THE VIDEO FOR “INAKA”

  Originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan, Semones began playing music at a young age, starting out on piano at age four before moving to electric guitar at age eleven. After playing jazz guitar in high school, she went on to study guitar performance with a jazz focus at Berklee College of Music. College is where she met her current bandmates, including string players Noah Leong and Claudius Agrippa, whose respective viola and violin add softness and multidimensionality to Mei’s intricate guitar work. After releasing a slew of singles and an EP in 2022, coinciding with her move to New York City, Mei and her band have since gone on to collaborate with post-bossa balladeer John Roseboro, and embarked on their first-ever tour with the melodic rock outfit Raavi.   All of the songs that comprise Kabutomushi are written and sung in both English and Japanese, with Mei wanting to stay connected to her first language through her music. The EP title translates to “rhinoceros beetle” in English, named after the horned insect that she would spot and catch in the park when visiting her grandmother in Japan growing up. Keeping things stripped-down with the help of electronic subtleties and plucked strings, Mei’s voice intertwined with her guitar come off as a poignant lullaby of treasured memories long-gone, but not forgotten, encapsulating Semones’ sonic trademarks: ornately catchy, genre-fusing compositions serving as the backdrop to tender lyrics touching on the universalities of human emotion.   Mei is embarking on a short solo tour with Bratty in the lead up to the release of Kabutomushi, with shows in New York, DC, Philadelphia, and Chicago, to name a few. Additionally, Mei has announced her record release show with full band on April 15th at Brooklyn’s Baby’s All Right.

hihi, songs 2, 34, and 41 from your top 100?

Sledge!!

Song #2 is Never Fall Apart (Epilogue) by Andrew Bird. So much better than the album version for repeated individual listens TBH.

Out on the boulevard Twisted, broken burning shards Walk softly with empty hand Strike up the band, strike up the band

Song #34 is Schadenfreude by Odd Robot! A punk pop ditty hay my bf introduced to me:

And now that you're still unhappy That would make my day [I can't remember much of it off the top of my head in a row sorry orz]

Finally, 41 is...a cover of Waters of March by John Roseboro and Mei Semones :) my fave bossa nova song prolly.

And the riverbanks flood with the waters of March It's the end of all things It's the joy in your heart
