ハナミズキ (feat. 一青窈) (梅下晃平 Plum Groove Remix Dub Version) / Kohei Umeshita

2023年7月28日にリリースされた「ハナミズキ (feat. 一青窈) (梅下晃平 Plum Groove Remix)」のヴォーカルレス＆バランス再調整を施しトラック部分のみを重視させたダブバージョンである。歌の無い楽曲部分だけも聴きたいと言う意見があり急遽制作。こちらに関してもじっくり聴くも良しだが実際にダンスフロアで使ってみても面白い仕上がりになっていて、また各種ライヴやネットなどでの「歌ってみた」での活用も想定している。

This is a dub version of “Hanamizuki (feat. Yo Hitoto) (Kohei Umeshita Plum Groove Remix)” released on July 28, 2023, without vocals and with the balance readjusted to emphasize the track part only. This version was produced in a hurry in response to requests to listen to the song without singing.

It is good to listen to it carefully, but it is also interesting to use it in DJ play, and it is also intended to be used in live performances and “I tried singing it” videos posted on video distribution.

This remix has two image concepts. The concept of Yo Hitoto, who can dance on the dance floor while maintaining the sophistication of the original song, led to the idea of house music. And if it had been remixed to house music when Hanamizuki was released? This is how it might have turned out! Kohei Umeshita remixed the song based on this image.

The first project of “Rework with” is a collaboration with Yo Hitoto, who celebrated the 20th anniversary of his debut. Yo Hitoto shared TuneCore Japan’s stance of supporting artists, and this “Rework with Hanamizuki” was realized.

Rework with” is a new artist support project by TuneCore Japan, which recently held the “Independent Artist Awards by TuneCore Japan” to mark the 10th anniversary of its service, and aims to support independent artists and their scenes, as the environment surrounding music continues to change drastically. This is a new artist support project aimed at expanding the music creator economy in today’s drastically changing music environment, where independent artists and their scenes are thriving.
