*ニュー・ウエイブの時代の大きな柱にテクノ・エレクトロ・ポップがありました。８０’ｓに入りますとパンクの気負いみたいなものも無くなって独自の道を歩き出す連中も。このブロンスキ・ビートもそうで、けっこう下世話つうかチャートポップなとこもあったりする。それでも決定的に違う味が有ってそれがとてつもない魅力となってます。その味何だろうと思うに、どうゆう訳かそれらのバンド・ユニットには特定の国、地域を思い起こさせる風味が有りまして。このブロンスキ・ビートは私にはポーランド。それもワルシャワとか都会で無くて、まあ都会でも小都市、ドイツ国境の。名前がブロンスキだからだったりして(^0^)。もあるけどメンバーにおよそロック・スターらしくない、タルコフスキー監督の世界史上最も退屈、そして最も引き付けられて目が離せない映画「ストーカー」の登場人物顔の人がいる。じゃロシアだろとなるけどポーランド。何でだ。メンバーは二人がグラスゴー出身、一人がロンドン出身なのに。みんなけっして金持とは言えない境遇に育った連中でボーカルのミスター裏声ジミー・ソマービル君は父ちゃんが肉体労働者、母ちゃんがクリーニング職人。グラスゴーのルチルつう貧民地域で育って、青年期に入ってロンドンにおのぼり、デパートの店員、パン屋さんの見習いとかしながらいきなし歌えることに気付いたそうです。鍵盤・マルチ楽器担当のスティーブ・ブロンスキ君は父ちゃんは倉庫業、母ちゃんはこれまたクリーニング職人。グラスゴーで舞台係やデパートの在庫管理の仕事をした後、ロンドンにおのぼり。だそう。もう一人、ラリー・ステインバチェック君。彼も鍵盤担当、エンジニアリングも。ロンドン出身で父ちゃんはガソリンスタンド勤務、母ちゃんは社会奉仕のお仕事。学校卒業後菓子職人、電話会社の技術者をしながら音楽してたと。謎だ。どこで音楽の修行してたんだろ。ラリー君は給料のほとんどを楽器・録音機材に費やしてたそうだけど。どこで出会ったか公営住宅で同居をし始めた三人。その時には既にラリー君、ＤＸ７を始めとした凄い機材一式持ってたそうで。そりゃまあ給料つぎ込んだんだろうな。この時期、高かったよシンセとか。食い物は一週間タマゴチャーハンかな。何か我が身を思い出してしまう。バンド名はブロンスキ君の名前があの怪鳥音ガラス割り少年大活躍、いきなし馬の中からウナギが仰山の映画「ブリキの太鼓」の登場人物アグネスの従兄弟役と同じだってんてそうなったそう。アグネスの従兄弟ってどんな人だっけ。そうだここでポーランドだ。相当この映画にメンバー全員入れ込んだか。あの摩訶不思議な鮮烈世界の印象がそっくり音楽に取り付いている気が。テクノは元々ドイツが故郷。ポップ畑でもジョルジオ・モロダー氏があのビコビコ発明でシンセの新しい使い方、機械ビートの快楽を見出した。そのモロダー氏の秘蔵っ子がドナ・サマー。ドイツとソウル。その元祖曲がアイ・フィール・ラブ。やってます最後に。はまりすぎ。そこから感覚想像力発展してドナさんと同じ味を持ったテルマ・ヒューストン、グロリア・ゲイナーの曲を別所ではカバー、マーク・アーモンド氏と共演。ひたすら自分と同じ臭いを持った人、音楽と連結してる。お金は無いけど時間と根性やる気体力だけはある若い時代にデジタル楽器のノブをいじくりまわしいいとこも悪いとこも喰い尽くす。これは今までと同じ態度で音楽を作らざるを得ないベテラン連中には絶対出来ないことです。しっかりしたイメージと自分の楽器テクに見合った工夫、そこに自動演奏つう新技術があったのもでかく、そして熱情。全員がゲイだとゆう。マイノリティの生き方を訴えたいとゆう気持ちもどかんとのっかって、これが８０’ｓ。ここでしか出来なった最高の音楽だと。思う次第。

SORRY,Mistranslation multi.
*There was a techno electro pop in a big pillar of the age of the new waving. The party who disappears when entering 80's the one like eager of the blowout and begins to walk on an original road. This Bronski beat is also so, and of care in the under chart pop considerably. Still, a definitely different taste becomes and it becomes an extraordinary charm as for having. There is a flavor to make it recall for those band units ..the desire as the taste how many.. ..whether it is translation.. ..a specific country and the region... This Bronski beat is Poland in me. It is not in Warsaw or the city either, and a small town probably and a German border also in the city. It is because the name is Bronski and (^0^). It is bored with the member most in the history of supervisor Tarkovskii's world who doesn't seem to be about lock star, attracted most, and there is a person with the characters face of movie "Stalker" that cannot take his/her eyes off. Then, it is Russian Polish. . of whatTwo people : the member one person from Glasgow is a London coming from. All..never..moneybags..say..circumstances..grow up..party..vocal..Mr...falsetto..Jimmy..Sommer..building..Herr..father..labourer..mammy..cleaning..workman.It seems to have noticed none living it grew up in the Ltil poor people region in Glasgow, it entered youth, go up to London, and be able to sing while learning it of the clerk and Mr. bakery at the department store. For Steve Bronski in charge of the keyboard and the multi musical instruments, in father, the warehouse industry and the mammy are this and the cleaning workmen. It rises to London after the work of the stock control of the person in charge of the stage and the department store is done in Glasgow. Let's put it out. Another and rally Stambachecc Herr. He and the keyboard charge and engineering. The gas station work and the mammy are the work of the community-service order in father from London. It is ..sound.. ..enjoyment... the cake workman and the engineer in the telephone company after it graduates of the schoolIt is a mystery. It is training of music where. Rally Herr : though spent most of the salary on musical instruments and recorder materials. Three people who began to cohabit in public housing in where met. At that time, let's already add terrible machine parts complete set Mo including rally Herr and DX7. Then, might not that is not the next salary probably Co. This time and Shinse ..high... Is food Tamagocharhan for one week?My some bodies are recalled. It is a cousin post of characters Agnes of movie "Die Blechtrommel" of the mountain to begin with and the same is from among Bronski's large name Toriot the glass remunerative boy activity and the horse of none living. the eel the band nameWhat kind of person is Agnes's cousin?It is and Poland. It ..Uts picture.. crazyall members..? ..corresponding.. likedThe nature that the impression in that mysterious, shocking world has completely clung to music. In techno, Germany is originally a hometown. Mr. Giorgio Moroder found the usage that Shinse is new in that Bicobico invention and the pleasure of the machine beat was found also in the pop field. The fair-haired boy is the Mr. Moroder's Dona summer. Germany and Seoul. The originator tune is eye feeling love. At the done end. Fitting in too much. The tune of Telma Houston and Gloria Gaynor who develops there the sense imagination and has the same taste as Dona is covered in Bessho, and Mr. mark almond and it co-stars. It single-mindedly connects it with the person and music with the same smell with me. It is ..saying.. camphor in a certain young age that the first cousin of knobs of digital musical instruments of tinkering Ac only in time and the spirit motivation physical strength though there is no money. The old-timer party from whom this cannot help making music in an up to now and the same attitude cannot never do. It is also strapping that there were automatic performance new technologies devising and there corresponded to the musical instrument tramping of the image and me who is steady and is passion. All members are gay. And this of feelings that wants to appeal for minority's way of life are 80's. When it is the highest music that can do only here and became it. It thinks.
