Next up is "Bonjour Records," which you were looking forward to, right?
The attraction is that you can see Yuge's collection of vinyl records in Kyoto. As a record collector, I am very excited to see analog vinyl records lined up in a row.
Yuge: Your store "Adult Oriented Records" carries used FPM records, right?
Yes, that's right. Yuge's aesthetic sense is quite good, and it shows in "Bonjour Records" as well. From big names such as Tatsuro Yamashita, Mariya Takeuchi, Eiichi Otaki, and Haruomi Hosono, to very minor releases, it's worth digging through!
Q: Which of these titles caught your attention, Mr. Tanaka?
This is it! The soundtrack to the movie "The Lady of Martha". I had never heard it on vinyl before, but the familiar saxophone melody caught my ear and I grabbed it. I was right when I watched it. The rhythm track was actually DJ-use.
From a rack filled with records, we pulled out the soundtrack ¥5,500+TAX to the classic film "The Martha Women," which, as those who have seen the movie know, contains many classic songs that reflect the realistic atmosphere of the film, which is about money, love, hate, and power.
Not only records, but also apparel closely linked to music, such as "RAP TEES" by DJ Rothstein, a world-renowned collector of hip-hop goods, and "POET MEETS DUBWISE" designed by Hoharu Shimoda, are available. RAP TEES" and "POET MEETS DUBWISE" designed by Noriharu Shimoda.
All of them are so stylish graphic T-shirts that you can't help but notice them all.
Tanaka: Was it "Richardson" that particularly caught your attention?
Now that I have collected everything from the precious first issue (he owns two copies), I'm still curious.
The book is not for sale, but the apparel is quite extensive: jackets, sweatshirts, hats, in addition to T-shirts.
And don't miss the original "Bonjour Records" sweatshirt and T-shirt that I also have.
You sewed phosphorescent tape into the design, didn't you?
It is exactly for nightlife (laughs). . I would love to wear this to a party someday, as it stands out even in the dark.
Original sweatshirt ¥ 9,800+tax, T-shirt ¥ 5,800 yen + tax , Kyoto version of the Glow In The Dark series with luminescent tape around the neck that glows in the dark.
