Biography
Biography
Tatsuya Nakamura has been working as a drummer since he was a teenager, performing with various bands such as Oxydoll, Genbaku Onanies, The Stalin, The God, Masturbation, Nickey & The Warriors, and The Star Club. After coming up to Tokyo, he went wrong and hunted the leather jacket of motorcycle gangs around Kanto, and he competed with his fellows for the number. When Nakamura had time job at a record store, he found a kindred spirit in Kenichi Asai whom he met by chance at a disco. Then, Nakamura and Asai formed Blankey Jet City with Toshiyuki Terui in 1987. Nakamura started a design for his solo works "Love Shop Losalios" which he composes all by himself in 1996, and he released 1st album "World map is a trace of blood" in which many musicians, such as Asai, Terui, Ken Morioka, and Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, participated under the name of Losalios in November 1999. Blankey Jet City disbanded in 2000. Nakamura restarted Losalios in 2002. Nakamura released the collaboration album "Buck Jam Tonic" of John Zorn and Bill Laswell in 2003. Nakamura formed Twin Tail with Toshiyuki Terui, Yuji Katsui (ROVO) and others in 2006. Nakamura is active under the name of Friction with Reck at present. Nakamura starred in the movie "the blood of the resurrection" released in December 2009. Nakamura appeared on the last episode of NHK Taiga drama "Ryōmaden" in 2010. In June 2011, Nakamura formed the rock duo Mannish Boys with guitarist and singer Kazuyoshi Saito. They had their first concert at the Join Alive music festival on July 24, and their second at the Fuji Rock Festival on July 31. In 2013, Nakamura formed the band Gokumontō Ikka alongside Avu-chan from Queen Bee, Tokyo Jihen's Ryosuke Nagaoka and KenKen from Rize.
