about

CHURASHIMA NAVIGATOR is, at this moment, gaining global attention for its bass-driven modernization of Okinawan folk music.
Striking at rich veins of underground sound. From Okinawa to Kingston — and beyond. Into the unknown.
If their last twelve-inch, the amazing “Hairumu-bushi/Kashimasa-bushi,” was the moon, then this release — with its subtle dancehall vibes — is the sun.
Just like Jamaican roots reggae and dub, CHURASHIMA NAVIGATOR’s music has traces of blood and tears.
This is it — Ryukyu stylee sound system music!
- Hajime Oishi (writer)

ベース・ミュージックの視点から沖縄民謡をモダナイズし、少しずつその名が世界規模で広がりつつあるCHURASHIMA NAVIGATOR。彼らは今まさに僕らの足元に流れる音の地下水脈を掘り当てようとしている。沖縄からキングストン、さらには未開の地へ。素晴らしかった前回の12インチ『ハイムルブシ / かしまさ節』が「陰」だとすれば、ダンスホール・ヴァイブスもほのかに振り掛けられた今回は「陽」。ただし、ジャマイカのルーツ・レゲエやダブがそうであるように、そこには血と涙が流れた痕跡がある。これぞ琉球スタイリーのサウンドシステム・ミュージック!
