Hybrid Leisureland：
フランスやアメリカなど海外での評価も高い小泉豪記によるソロユニット。2006年フランスのUltimae Recordsから「Scroll Slide」をリリース、ヨーロッパ・日本でデビュー。2012年には「Variable」を発売。外資系ファッションブランドのパーティーや、野外夏フェスティバルなどで幅広くライブを行う。知的で流麗なフレーズと共にノイズ、空気音までも取り入れて独自の世界観を表現。ミクロの世界を散歩してるような音楽を表現する。

Days Less Ordinary：
「Keeping Track of the Human Race」（2014年6月）の続編とも言える、自身のレーベルSonar library recordsより2014年3アルバム連続リリース予定の第2弾。新たなHybrid Leisurelandの音楽が広がる。バランスよく整っているようできく場所やムードによって違ってきこえる彼の音楽は、聞き手に成立を委ねる成熟したアンビエント・ミュージック。「元から全て完璧なものはない」とでも言うように。

1. During Interval
一定の間隔、幅、距離があり、その間の中で存在や行動範囲を決めてしまう。
範囲や距離なんて誰も決めていないのに・・・

2. Domain of Definition
言葉の壁や文化や国同士の問題。
このことだけで、考えや思いは変わってしまう。
しかし、今いる場所から世界につながる、国や言葉が異なるとしても人と人でつながることが出来る、国の問題なんかより、もっと近く個人で近づけることは何かが異なろうとしても可能なはずだ。
自分はそう信じてる。

3. Have It
沢山の友達と楽しい時間を過ごした時に、この瞬間を記憶や写真だけでなく音楽にしたかった自分の目から見えた思い出です。
誰もが友人との大切な時間があるはず。

4. Sugar Cube
箱は、白く淡く光る
とても素敵な箱
箱を使って甘い蜜を出す
みんなが欲しがれば欲しがるほど
箱は、ぴたりと蜜を出さなくなる。
大慌てになって箱をなだめる。
箱は、言う。もう空っぽだよ。

5. Swing Sleep Smile
誰もが思い出の中でその人だけの夢見る時間。
それは、その人だけが知っている大事なこと。
誰もが持っている大事なこと

6. Thinking of You
とてもとても大切な言葉。

7. Mirror Dose Not Know Its Face
鏡は、人やものを映す。うわべだけで内面は映せない、本当の自分は誰なのだろう

8. Silver Silk
ゆっくり音をたてて、流れ落ちる。
それは糸のようにひっそりとしたたり続ける。

9. Fourth Myself
3人がピアノを弾いている。
これは未完成、あなたがピアノを弾いて4番目になって完成させてください。
そう、あなたの音楽として。

10. Civilian Control
(none)

11. Advance
過去は大切な財産であり記憶である。
自分の前には、これからの時間しかない。
そう、あなたが今立っている場所は未来へとつながって、世界のどこまでも行ける。
これからの可能性は無限だ！


Hybrid Leisureland:
Hybrid Leisureland, Hidetoshi Koizumi debuted in 2010 with his first album "scroll slide" released from a French label Ultimae records, followed by his second album "Variable" in 2012. In 2014, he digitally released a new work for the first time in two years. Though his music is categorized as ambient, the album "Keeping the track of human race" presents with one-of-a-kind soundscape that goes beyond mere ambient. In a gentle sound he expresses, one can also feel a sense of loneliness, happiness and a hope, along with his intention to defy any labels put on his music. His new work may overturn your idea on what is ambient or music itself.

Days Less Ordinary:
Something that was not said in the first album "keeping track of the human race"
The second album brings you to a new world, yet it is the sequel of the previous one. His music continues to develop. Hybrid Leisureland's announcement of his plan to digital release three albums this year excited his fans around the globe. With the second one, which has just become available, Hybrid Leisureland, or Hidetoshi Koizumi, will bring you to the world of his new soundscape you have never experienced before.
The sound of his music appears different depending on which place or mood you are in. It first seems neutrally balanced, but one will soon come to realize there is something more about it; Like nothing is perfect from the beginning, his music will be completed only when each listener takes part in it -- at least that's what he is up to.

1. During Interval
Why do we limit our world and our existence in a limited space?
No one has ever told us to do so…

2. Domain of Definition
Language, culture and nation define or fix our perception.
But we can all connect beyond borders and barriers. At least I believe that.

3. Have It
This tune is about good times I spent with a lot of friends, the memories that I wanted to put into music rather than taking pictures.
Hasn't everyone had a precious time with friends?

4. Sugar Cube
The box shines with sickly whitish gleam
Such a nice box
Dropping from the box is sweet honey
But the box stops giving out honey as more people crave for it
They try to soothe the box in panic
The box says, "I'm already empty"

5. Swing Sleep Smile
Dreaming time, a private and priceless moment that everyone indulges.

6. Thinking of You
Priceless words.

7. Mirror Dose Not Know Its Face
Mirror reflects humans and things, only surfaces.
Who am I really?

8. Silver Silk
Falling down slowly, with sounds.
It continues to drop quietly, like a string.

9. Fourth Myself
Three people are playing the piano.
This tune is incomplete. You become the fourth person to play the piano and complete it. Yes, it is your music.

10. Civilian Control
(none)

11. Advance
The past is a precious property and memory.
There is only the future in front of me.
Where you are standing right now is connected to the future and brings you to any corner of the world.
The possibility is infinite!
