Bush of Ghosts / BUDDHISTS TRACKS (2024年リイシューLP盤)
Rewind Dubsレーベルの国産ジャパニーズ・ダブ復刻シリーズ第2弾。本作は、2000年代初頭大阪を拠点に活動していたバンド、ブッシュ・オブ・ゴーストのファーストアルバムである。2001年、バンドの中心人物でもあった市原“icchie”大資(通称イッチー)が個人で運営していたBUS-recordsからCDとしてリリース、それから20年以上の時を経て、今回初めてLPフォーマットでリイシューされる。ルーツ・レゲエやダンスホールなどジャマイカ音楽の要素に加え、クンビアやアフロ・キューバンなど中南米音楽のフレイヴァーを加えたサウンドは、ユーモアと心地よいグルーヴに満ちたサイケデリックな世界に導く、間違いなく唯一無二な作品だ。本作は彼らの貴重なインタビューを掲載したライナーノーツ(日本語、英語)を封入した特別盤! Rewind Dubs label's 2nd releases of legendary Japanese dub band series. This album is the first release of Bush of Ghosts, a band based in Osaka around the beginning of the millennium. The album was initially released in 2001 as a CD from BUS-records, which was independently run by Daisuke Ichihara known as Icchie, who was also the key player of the band. After more than twenty years, it is now being reissued in a LP format for the first time. With the element of Jamaican music such as roots reggae and dancehall, as well as with the flavour of Latin and South American music such as cumbia and Afro-Cuban, the sound simmers down into chaos and its psychedelic world filled with humor and pleasant groove is definitely one of a kind.
