Euphonix has started distributing their second album for the first time in about two years. This time, Chris Mosdell is in charge of the lyrics. He has written lyrics for the Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO), Eric Clapton, Boy George, Yoko Kanno, Yukihiro Takahashi, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Sheena & Rockets and others. On the other hand, he writes lyrics in a wide range of fields such as movie music and stage music. The scientific and spacey world view of his lyrics is expressed by the electronica sound of Euphonix, who respects YMO while producing music. The lead song "Spaceship Head", with its catchy chorus, is perfectly linked to the sci-fi movie-style music video that makes full use of the latest digital human technology, making it an interesting work for sci-fi movie fans. Overall, the electronic sound is reminiscent of YMO's mid-term, 1980s electronic music, and Yukihiro Takahashi's Meta Five, which makes extensive use of vintage synths.
A Tokyo-based electro / synth-pop producer. Influenced by 80s and 90s technopop and electronica, he creates music that blends the texture of vintage synthesizers with modern production aesthetics. In 2010, he won an award in a music contest organized by Fred Perry, judged by Yukihiro Takahashi of YMO. Since then, he has participated in J-WAVE "MUSIC HYPER MARKET" and provided music for female vocalist Joanna Koike, also working under the alias "Drip dry eyes." His second album SPACESHIP HEAD, released in 2023, features lyrics by British lyricist Chris Mosdell, known for his work with YMO and film music. The album combines meticulously recreated vintage synthesizer textures with contemporary clarity, resulting in a sound that evokes 80s electro while remaining fresh and relevant today. The lead track SPACESHIP HEAD is accompanied by a sci-fi inspired music video created using digital human technology. In the same year, it was awarded the Grand Prize in the synthesizer contest on "Logic Radio" (alpha-STATION / FM Kyoto), hosted by Hideki Matsutake. Currently, he is working on new music while developing a live set, aiming to create an immersive performance centered around sequencers and synthesizers.
