Description
[Machine Translation] Dos Monos, the bug that suddenly appeared in the Tokyo hip-hop scene, has finally released a full-length album! After successful live performances in South Korea and France, and signing with the American label "Deathbomb Arc", Dos Monos has now released his first full-length album! Dos Monos is a 3-piece HIP HOP unit that has been rapidly gaining attention here in Japan after becoming the first Japanese to sign with Deathbomb Arc, the LA label that releases Deeath Grips and JPEGMAFIA, etc. The MC and track maker, Shouko it, has provided songs to Taichi Mukai, DATS, yahyel, etc. and is a newcomer to the scene. Dos Monos is an up-and-coming producer who has provided songs to Taichi Mukai, DATS, yahyel, and others, and they also became the talk of the town when they appeared as guest rappers on the DATS stage at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL'17 with TAITAN MAN, who also serves as MC. Although they have been highly supported not only by the music world but also by the art and fashion industries since early on, their true identity was still shrouded in mystery, with only a few songs and a few interviews distributed on the Internet. The video "in 20XX," which was distributed prior to the film, was produced by Sunao Watanabe, who has produced music videos for such artists as Campanella on Wednesday and Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, and it created intense images that seem to be a combination of all kinds of modern "bugs" and "cyberpunk," hijacking the senses of the viewer. In September 2018, they collaborated with Masanori Tominaga, a film director known for works such as "Pavilion Sanshojo," and their short film "PLAN B," a program provided by BEAMS on Space Shower TV, and their momentum shows no sign of slowing down. Their long-awaited first album, "PLAN B," is a more modern update of their long-established free jazz and progressive rock elements, as well as beats that emphasize "twists" and "gaps," reminiscent of retro video game music. The album is further modernized with tracks such as "Schizo Indian," in which a thick boom-bap beat rises from the sound of a weirdly echoing saxophone, "Agartha," in which words are packed into a chill beat with a flute, and "Clean Ya Nerves," which is the key to the album, pushing forward as if to twist the subtlety of free jazz with the beat. The album is centered around songs such as "Agartha", which is the cornerstone of the album, and "Clean Ya Nerves", which is the key to the album.
