OHHHHH!!
The end of the semester....
I hear everybody shouting "I've done!!!!."
I wanna shout back "I haven't yet!!!."
I am editing a movie now. That movie is called "Beat Fanatic."
This movie starts with the director’s prologue about beat language, while in the background, an example of beat language plays.
The first scene starts with the phone ringing in BP’s, (main character) room. The ringing will be a beatbox sound. BP gets the phone and starts talking with his friends, TD and KeN who are supposed to come to his house. BP gives them direction from the station to his house.
TD and Ken walk to BP’s home while chatting. They get to in front of my house and push a bell. BP let them in and treat them coke.
BP sits on the big chair in front of his desk for DTM (Desk Top Music). TD and Ken sit on the floor and relax. BP starts talking about his audio project entry for the music competition. He shows it to Ken and TD and asks what they think about it. They criticize it and give him the feed back. They suggest that BP needs to turn up the gain of the low frequency and to compress the middle frequency sound. BP looks for a way to fight back against their opinion. But they keep criticizing the song. BP asks them what this song’s good points are. Ken answers there is no good point as long as he doesn’t change the beat itself. TD suggests that it is better to overdub the beatbox on that. BP asked them to demonstrate to see what it would be like. Ken starts beatboxing and TD makes the rhythm with the beat machine. They jam for a while.
After 2 weeks, BP got a mail from the organization which held the music competition. It says “You win. This is PRIZE MONEY.” A few days later, TD and Ken come to his house as usual and find the paper envelope with the prize money on his desk. They ask him how much they can have. BP just laughs at the end.
I' ve almost done. I'll show you soon!!

The CYPHER
The "Cypher" is many musicians, especially rapper and beat boxers, gather together and jam. Everything is inprovised on the spot.
This movement started in New York in mid 80's and came to Japan later in late 90's. The "Japan Cypher" has become popular very recently.
I sometimes go join the cypher when I feel bored staying my home.
AND EXPRESS MY FEELING WITH BEEEEEEAT!!!
This is what I recorded recently on AZABU street. Check this out!!

Voice in Mind
I made a new song. As you know from the title, I make sounds
with only VOICE. Of course, I use a lot of effects in the CUBASE VST
plug in but original sound is all from my voice.The concept of this song
is "dilemma".
What I express here is twoconflicts that disturbe what I want to
think or do. I really don't knowwhat they are. I am shouting in both low tone
and high tone in the song. heck this out!

The list of parks in TOKYO.
If you are musitian. You definitely need a place to practice.
Of course you can practice at your house, if you are pianist
or guitarist. But if you are saxophonist or drummer, you can
not play intruments at your house. I am drummer, and I always
practice in Yoyogi park. Yoyogi park is the best if you, musician,
want to practice playing music. However, there are more parks in
Tokyo than you think.
This entry is for the musicians who want to know which park is available
to play their instruments.
1, Shiba Park
2, Shinjuku-Goen
3, Arisugawa park
4, Kiba park
5, Senjidai park

Tokyo vs Kyoto
Tokyo and Kyoto...
East capital and west capital...
Which do you think is a real Japan?
It is sure that both are part of Japan. But what I am asking here is that which seems more like Japan in terms of beauty.
I think Kyoto have preserved a lot of Japanese treasure which keeps Kyoto city aesthetic and consistent such as old architecture, temples, shrines, food and lots of nature.
I think it is important for people, mainly local people, to preserve their own city in order to protect Japanese beauty
that Japanese people have built up over thousands of year.
How about Tokyo? Although it seems, of course, convenient and efficient, it is incoherent as we see from the appearance
. We can not see any of scenery Edo people was seeing.
That's what I wondered on the train today...
