BLACK MUSIC / FUNK / SOUL / JAZZ / VINYL ONLY / 45s VINYL SET BY DJ Vicar LIVE AT ON THE CORNER

ON THE CORNER BASE IN NEW TAIPEI CITY, TAIWAN VINYL ONLY HOST BY   / purpose_analog     / kengaicoffea   ------------ About DJ Vicar   / djvicar   ------------ DJ Vicar has dedicated his life to promoting soul, funk, and hip-hop music in Taiwan. With 20 years of experience as a DJ, he has become a cornerstone of the local music scene. Known as the “Black Music Evangelist” ＆ “ TAIWAN Music Digger” in Taiwan, Vicar’s journey began in the early 2000s when access to music was limited. He worked as the manager of the legendary Taiwanese hip-hop record store, “Da Project  Records,” which became a cradle for hip-hop culture on the island. After Da Project  Records’ closure, Vicar founded his own record store, Soul Amazin', which continues to serve as a gateway for many Taiwanese listeners to discover Black music. Beyond retail, he co-founded the independent music label Floatingmusic with his partners, further cementing his influence on Taiwan’s music landscape. VICAR play with a lot of DJs And not only play,he also share Taiwan music on vinyl To them Like 🇺🇸 AFRIKA BAMBAATAA, DJ Jazzy Jeff, DJ Clark Kent, DJ Shortkut, DJ Numark, Kero One 🇨🇦 Skratch Bastid, Flipout 🇯🇵 DJ MURO, DJ KOCO, DJ KENTA, DJ MITSU THE BEATS, DJ DECKSTREAM, DJ BUNTA, DJ SHOTA, DJ SHU-G, DJ SHINGO 🇰🇷 DJ Soulscape ------------ During the post-show Q&A session, DJ Vicar shared his perspective on Black music. “To me, Black music is more of an umbrella term rather than a single genre,” he explained. “It’s like how we wouldn’t categorize city pop as just one style of music. Black music is incredibly inclusive—spanning funk, soul, hip-hop, and even jazz. In fact, its influence is embedded in nearly 80% of today’s popular music! So, isn’t modern pop music also a form of Black music in its own way?” he added with a laugh. ------------ A Vinyl-Only Set with 7-Inch Records ------------ For this special event, Vicar crafted his entire set using 7-inch vinyl records—a deliberate choice that added both charm and challenge to his performance. When asked about this decision, he explained, “My music collection for this topic had more material available on 7-inch records. Plus, performing with 7-inch vinyl is technically more demanding, which I enjoy!” Interestingly, Vicar opted not to use any effects or sound color during his set. “I wanted to present my DJing in the purest form possible,” he said. The result was an unfiltered and authentic experience that highlighted his technical skills and deep connection to music. ------------ Tools of the Trade: DJ Vicar’s Gear ------------ DJ Vicar’s love for analog equipment is evident in his carefully curated setup. His go-to turntable is the iconic Technics SL1200 series, which he regards as timeless regardless of the model generation. For mixing, he prefers the Vestax PMC 07 Pro mixer, praising its sound quality and ergonomic design. When it comes to cartridges and needles, Vicar swears by the SHURE M447—a. “I stocked up on enough needles before they were discontinued to last me a lifetime,” he joked. He also pays close attention to needle pressure, adjusting it between 2.5 to 3.5 grams to minimize wear on his records. One unique piece of gear in his arsenal is a custom-made 7-inch adapter. “A friend from Japan crafted this for me based on my preferences,” he shared. “It’s made entirely of metal and is much heavier than standard adapters, which suits my style perfectly.” ------------ ABOUT DJ Vicar DJ Vicar 致力於推廣SOUl FUNK HIP HOP MUSIC 投入DJ 業界至今已20多年 不遺餘力的在影響大家接觸自身也喜愛的音樂 並於08年在臺北經營著獨立唱片行Soul Amazin' Music 引進自身喜愛的黑膠外 2020年與夥伴成立 音樂廠牌 浮氣音樂 / Floating Music 至今依舊堅持使用黑膠作為演出媒材 更與許多知名DJ 同台演出 如.   🇺🇸 DJ Jazzy Jeff, DJ Clark Kent, DJ Shortkut, DJ Numark, Kero One 🇯🇵 DJ MURO, DJ KOCO, DJ KENTA, DJ MITSU THE BEATS, DJ DECKSTREAM, DJ BUNTA, DJ SHOTA, DJ SHU-G, DJ SHINGO 🇰🇷 DJ Soulscape 在臺灣人稱黑樂傳教士 早期任職於臺灣傳奇嘻哈唱片行 大計劃唱片擔任店長一職 在資訊不發達的2000年初 便致力於引進嘻哈音樂與黑人音樂 也使大計劃唱片 成為臺灣嘻哈音樂人的重要搖籃之一 大計劃唱片宣告終止後 VIcar便創立自身唱片行品牌 Soul Amazin' Music 繼續推進新一代接觸黑人音樂 AFTER show QA Q. 想請教VICAR 對於Black Music 的理解與想法 對我來說Black Music黑樂比較像是一個統稱 不是一個類型，就像我們不會說City Pop是一個音樂類型，Black Music對我來說包容性很強從Funk Soul到Hip Hop甚至Jazz 但對我來說他其實包容的更廣 就如同這些元素早已淺藏在當今幾乎80%的音樂內！ 那這些流行音樂不也是另類的Black Music(笑） Q.此次一小時的DJ SET選擇全部以7寸黑膠做為媒材有什麼特別的意義？ 而且我們注意到這次的演出中Vicar完全沒有使用任何效果器甚至是Sound Color ！ 主要原因是我的音樂收藏在這次的Topic下，7寸有比較多的素材可用！ 加上其實使用7寸的挑戰性也比較大！ 對於技術的要求也比較高😝 至於效果器不使用的原因是 我希望可以用最純粹的方式去呈現DJ Q.請跟大家分享Vicar 慣用的DJ器材&選擇他的原因 慣用的DJ器材 唱盤的部分無庸置疑Technics SL1200代數差異其實不太影響我 Mixer的部分 我的最愛是 Vestax PMC 07 Pro 不管是聲音的質地還是使用的手感都非常順手 唱頭唱針 我現在Vinyl Set主要用 SHURE M447 雖然已經停產，我在停產前收了十幾組備用唱針應該夠我用到掛了😝 我的7寸 Adapter 是最有趣的 算是為了我自己使用習慣 托日本的友人量身訂製全金屬下去做切削 重量比仿間的重量重許多 Equipment List Turntable:Technics SL1200MK2 Mixer: Pioneer DJM900n2 Limited Cartridge:SHURE M447 Headphones:Technics DJ1200 Sound System JBL 4311A REVOX B150 Recording Equipment REVOX B77
