Musician — Ishikawa
A Ayaka Tatamino Photo
Name, where are you from?
Ayaka Tatamino, from Ishikawa, Japan.
What do you do?
Vocals & Guitar in the band Homecomings.
What’s the best gig you’ve ever been to?
A recent one would be a band called Night Flowers. We played together at Fever (Shin-daita) and Conpass (Shinsaibashi) back in November 2018. They are apparently inviting us on tour in April 2019 so I suppose it’s a mutual love.
Which subcultures have influenced you?
Films I guess. For example, I picked Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys on the playlist but he composed the soundtrack to the film 'Submarine'. The story itself is very dark but purely amazing. One of our music videos references the scene where he walks along the poolside (laughs).
Of all the venues you’ve played, which is your favourite?
Fantasy Kids Taichung, one of the venues we played when we went on tour in Taiwan in 2018. It’s a cosy space with the bar set up beside the stage and the atmosphere was just different from the usual live venue, which was very nice.
If you could be on the line up with any two bands in history?
Teenage Fanclub and Prefab Sprout… My favourite band is Teenage Fanclub (laughs). I have actually performed with the vocalist Norman Blake when he visited Japan as a solo artist. I would like to sing vocals & play the guitar during the period when they released 'Songs From Northern Britain'.
If you could spend an hour with anyone from history?
That’s hard… I’ve spoken to Norman Blake in person before so instead, I’d like to go on a walk in winter with Roddy Frame from Aztec Camera (laughs).
Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?
Night Flowers. Surprisingly, they still aren’t well known.
How did you select the tracks for this playlist?
Overall it’s a blend of musicians who I’ve been inspired by and those that I’m currently listening to. It should show my musical journey ever since I’ve started playing in a band. Not to mention Night Flowers, of course, Bill Ryder Jones, Yuck and Happyess are all recent bands too.
The first track you played on repeat?
Ever since high school I’ve been listening to 'Just Like Honey' by The Jesus & Mary Chain.
A song that defines the teenage you?
It’s kind of a typical answer but 'Blue Monday' by New Order. They're my favourite band since Joy Division.
One record you would keep forever?
'High Land, Hard Rain' by Aztec Camera. I like the whole album and the vinyl cover artwork. I’d like to mention that I like to listen to it all year round.
A song lyric that has inspired you?
I read the Japanese translation to the soundtrack for 'Submarine' by Alex Turner so many times. I also found the translation for the 'Two Wheels Good' by Prefab Sprout very interesting. It’s kind of gross in some ways and that's what makes it so good.
Best song to turn up loud?
'Your Love Is The Place Where I Come From' by Teenage Fanclub.
A song people wouldn’t expect you to like?
'I Still Remember' by Bloc Party.
Any new music you are listening to right now?
Bill Ryder Jones. His second album was released in 2018 but I've been a fan of his since the first one.
