Captain Funk
Country: Tokyo, Japan
Label(s): Elektrax Progressive
Norman Cook (Fatboy Slim) called Captain Funk’s 1999 big beat record, Bustin’ Loose, “Fucking insane!” Simple as that. Tokyo-based DJ/producer Tatsuya Oe, the guy behind the good captain for just over a decade now, is one of this city’s favourite DJs, he’s a really nice guy, and he’s previously unfurled his music through respected Japanese label, Sublime – they also released Co-Fusion, Tanzmusik, Susumu Yokota and Ken Ishii.
Tatsuya has also released more experimental albums in his own name, as well as under the moniker of ONJQ+OE, with Yoshihide Otomo, and now operates a web-based label, called Model Electronic and occasionally remixes for Elektrax Progressive.
