Captain Funk is the longest-standing project of award-winning music producer Tatsuya Oe. Under the moniker, Oe has created original electronic music inspired by the sounds that influenced him in his youth, such as funk, disco, synthpop, and house music. In its '98 debut album "Encounter with…," he exemplified unique sound by fusing old-school funk and state-of-art techno sound. Oe has earned praise from DJs across the board, including Coldcut, Carl Cox, Freddy Fresh, and Chemical Brothers for his infectious grooves. Fatboy Slim (Norman Cook) described "Bustin' Loose EP ('99)" as "F***ing insane!" and demanded extra copies. "Songs of the Siren ('00)," his most rock-oriented release yet, won "The Year in Music 2001" from the Billboard Magazine. In the releases of '07 "Heavy Metal," "Heavy Mellow," and '09 "Sunshine," Oe updated his early signature funky breaks/big-beat style with modern electro and synthpop sound. Catchy vocal tracks such as "Hey Boy, Hey Girl" and "Weekend" were ranked in several Japan and South Korea charts. He has continued to release original albums under this name, such as "Oceans,"" Metropolis('19),""Night Music('20)," and" Sail & Cruise('21)," Tatsuya Oe official website: https://www.tatsuyaoe.com/ Model Electronic Records on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/user/modelelectronic
