These are fakes. Aside from sounding like complete crap they are made with the sole intention of ripping off you guys, as well as the band. Anyone that can give us the name of the scum bag making them, we will take care of mightily. Don't go off on stores, eBayers, online shops as they were likely ripped off as well. Please tell anyone trying to sell it, that it's a fake/counterfeit, as they might not know.

Vince has been making &lt;a href="http://synesthesiacorp.com/"&gt;Synesthesia Mandala&lt;/a&gt; drums for years. The drums have been Danny Carey's secret weapons for live and recording. He showed the depth of the drums and their software "Virtual Brain". The drums are not typical drum pads. It's hard to explain, check them out and find out what the drums do at &lt;a href="http://synesthesiacorp.com/"&gt;http://synesthesiacorp.com/&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SkHe_xODwMc/TmaQoxsSbBI/AAAAAAAAAuM/P3ytevvO288/s1600/DSC07425.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SkHe_xODwMc/TmaQoxsSbBI/AAAAAAAAAuM/P3ytevvO288/s200/DSC07425.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5649361812791127058" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been learning about the software since the meeting.

As the EP’s title suggests, it’s four songs, each strong enough to be its own single. Get a taste via mighty opener “Always Never Know When To Quit.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Big Business – “Always Never Know When To Quit” &lt;br /&gt;“Quadruple Single” tracklist:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;01 “Always Never Know When To Quit”&lt;br /&gt;02 “Ice-Cold War”&lt;br /&gt;03 “City Ham”&lt;br /&gt;04 “Guns”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quadruple Single is out 7/26 via Gold Metal. For the upcoming tour Martin will be handling the guitar, the quartet acting like a power trio again. Other guitarist Toshi Kasai will be elsewhere:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After a long talk where the Biz stayed up all night crying, Toshi decided that he needed to stay home and honor some recording obligations. They wish he could come, but they’ll be sure to do something creepy to acknowledge his absence like leave his guitar on stage with a fog machine blowing ethereal smoke at it’s base, implying that Toshi is playing with them from another realm. They’re probably too lazy to pull that off, but Toshi wishes Coady, Jared, and Scott a safe trip anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dates:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;07/07 – Houston, TX @ Walter’s on Washington *&lt;br /&gt;07/08 – Baton Rouge, LA @ Spanish Moon *&lt;br /&gt;07/09 – Birmingham, AL @ Bottletree Cafe *&lt;br /&gt;07/11 – Tampa, FL @ The Orpheum *&lt;br /&gt;07/12 – Miami, FL @ Churchill’s *&lt;br /&gt;07/13 – Orlando, FL @ The Social *&lt;br /&gt;07/14 – Atlanta, GA @ EARL *&lt;br /&gt;07/15 – Greensboro, NC @ Greene Street Club *&lt;br /&gt;07/16 – Washington, DC @ Rock and Roll Hotel *&lt;br /&gt;07/17 – Baltimore, MD @ The Ottobar *&lt;br /&gt;07/19 – Philadelphia, PA @ First Unitarian Church *&lt;br /&gt;07/20 – Brooklyn, NY @ Music Hall of Williamsburg *&lt;br /&gt;07/21 – Cambridge, MA @ Middle East Downstairs *&lt;br /&gt;07/22 – Buffalo, NY @ Mohawk Place *&lt;br /&gt;07/23 – Cleveland Heights, OH @ Grog Shop *&lt;br /&gt;07/24 – Newport, KY @ The Historic Southgate House *&lt;br /&gt;07/25 – Grand Rapids, MI @ The Pyramid Scheme *&lt;br /&gt;07/26 – Detriot, MI @ Magic Stick *&lt;br /&gt;07/27 – Indianapolis, IN @ The Hoosier Dome *&lt;br /&gt;07/28 – Chicago, IL @ The Bottom Lounge *&lt;br /&gt;07/29 – Minneapolis, MN @ Triple Rock Social Club *&lt;br /&gt;07/30 – Omaha, NE @ The Waiting Room *&lt;br /&gt;07/31 – Denver, CO @ Bluebird Theater *&lt;br /&gt;08/02 – Salt Lake City, UT @ Club Vegas *&lt;br /&gt;08/03 – Boise, ID @ Neurolux *&lt;br /&gt;08/04 – Seattle, WA @ Neumo’s *&lt;br /&gt;08/05 – Portland, OR @ Hawthorne Theatre &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/06 – San Francisco, CA @ Slim’s &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/07 – West Hollywood, CA @ The Troubadour &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/08 – San Diego, CA @ The Casbah &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/09 – Scottsdale, AZ @ Martini Ranch &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/10 – Albuquerque, NM @ Launchpad &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/12 – Dallas, TX @ Club Dada &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/13 – San Antonio, TX @ Korova &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/14 – Austin, TX @ Red 7 &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/16 – Tucson, AZ @ Club Congress &amp;&lt;br /&gt;08/20 – Missoula, MT @ Total Fest&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* w/ Torche and Helms Alee&lt;br /&gt;&amp; w/ Torche and Thrones&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16983437-993986374019762114?l=toshikasai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://toshikasai.blogspot.com/feeds/993986374019762114/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16983437&amp;postID=993986374019762114' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16983437/posts/default/993986374019762114'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16983437/posts/default/993986374019762114'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://toshikasai.blogspot.com/2011/06/big-business-always-never-know-when-to.html' title='Big Business – “Always Never Know When To Quit” (Stereogum Premiere)'/><author><name>Toshi Kasai</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12856643561978038571</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rOEWu0DRL0I/ToCsTG_vMRI/AAAAAAAAAu8/IPvwlk_Fzpg/s220/DSC01501.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16983437.post-7438343995180866968</id><published>2011-06-29T00:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-25T16:27:50.973-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Skivies'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Action Friend'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Osyluth'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='shows'/><title type='text'>"Toshi Fest," featured the Skivies, with Action Friend and Osyluth</title><content type='html'>Three of four bands I produced last September had a show for their album releases, called Toshi Fest.

It's been three years since I did one with Peter for &lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/projectserce"&gt;Serce&lt;/a&gt;. This time, I was with Tommy of &lt;a href="http://westernmystic.com/"&gt;Western Mystic&lt;/a&gt;. We used the same junk yard as last time. The manager of the junk yard remembered me. Huge cranes and trucks were up and running inside of the yard. So there were restricted areas and he let us use a part of the yard. He also found us some materials, such as a metal pipe and a huge chain, and showed us how to get great noises. We got some great sounds, are going to edit those as samples! You will hear those on songs of Western Mystic!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9gfuAyXG04U/TZVx77tL6wI/AAAAAAAAAsA/ICLci9TEndU/s1600/DSC06393.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Dale and I had produced their previous album a few years back. They told me that they found a studio there with a great deal, so they wanted me to go to Denver and work with them on their new material. The studio though, did not have enough recording devices, so I decided to drive there with some of my equipment. Since it takes 15 hours to get to Denver from L.A. by car, I wanted to get the most out of my trip while there and asked them to find another band for me to work with. They found me another group within a day, who are called the Skivies. The Skivies were only available though for two weekends worth of recording. So, I had to found some other bands to fill my weekdays up with for work. Action Friend proceeded to find another band for me to record with called Osyluth. Then, to top off things, a friend of mine found me one more band to work with called Tree. So I ended up recording four bands in 15 days!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSO4IsYZ8I/AAAAAAAAAq4/BytgRqzf-cw/s1600/DSC05463.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSO4IsYZ8I/AAAAAAAAAq4/BytgRqzf-cw/s200/DSC05463.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527199737747892162" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Three days before I left for Denver, there was some miscommunication between Action Friend and the studio we supposed to work at, and so we canceled our studio time there. I told them to find a place where we can make some loud music. I would then bring my gear, so we wouldn't need to be in a commercial studio. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSPS9eUhAI/AAAAAAAAArA/qeNssQq3W7k/s1600/DSC05388.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSPS9eUhAI/AAAAAAAAArA/qeNssQq3W7k/s200/DSC05388.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527200198592594946" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Zahari, the guitar player from the Skivies found a community center in the town where he lives. It was an half hour drive from downtown Denver and was surrounded by woods. I recorded Action Friend and the Skivies there. The results of the recordings were way better than we had expected. It was a beautiful place full of nature and a great place to work. We saw deer and Sean from the Skivies had an encounter with a bear! He was far enough away from the bear so he could run back into the safety of the community center.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSQNgUmSHI/AAAAAAAAArI/m4vSNnP4d4U/s1600/DSC05537.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSQNgUmSHI/AAAAAAAAArI/m4vSNnP4d4U/s200/DSC05537.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527201204379469938" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the recording session with the Trees, we used a rehearsal studio of theirs. The guitar player, Justin, has a guitar craft shop, “Hackl Guitar”, right next to the rehearsal studio. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSQrA-ad8I/AAAAAAAAArQ/UmO5zO12C9w/s1600/DSC05639.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSQrA-ad8I/AAAAAAAAArQ/UmO5zO12C9w/s200/DSC05639.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527201711360997314" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I placed my gear in his shop and they played at the rehearsal studio next door. Outside of his guitar shop, there is an empty area surrounded by concrete walls. So we decided to use this ambient space to record some of the drum tracks with. The audio results of that were amazing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The last band I recorded was Osyluth. We recorded at the drummer, Dan's basement. They are such a good band that they finished their basic tracking in two hours, and we ended up recording two whole songs in one day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSRC650h5I/AAAAAAAAArY/UQtWhPZ1wYw/s1600/DSC05712.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSRC650h5I/AAAAAAAAArY/UQtWhPZ1wYw/s200/DSC05712.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527202122047981458" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This trip was a great experience for me. I recorded four amazing bands and made a lot of new friends. The hospitality I received from everyone there was superb. I'd like to do it again. Since my return to L.A., I have been mixing all of the songs I recorded in Denver. There are more than 35 of them so a long way to go still.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16983437-9160406095193789605?l=toshikasai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://toshikasai.blogspot.com/feeds/9160406095193789605/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16983437&amp;postID=9160406095193789605' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16983437/posts/default/9160406095193789605'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16983437/posts/default/9160406095193789605'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://toshikasai.blogspot.com/2010/10/denver-trip.html' title='Denver Trip'/><author><name>Toshi Kasai</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12856643561978038571</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rOEWu0DRL0I/ToCsTG_vMRI/AAAAAAAAAu8/IPvwlk_Fzpg/s220/DSC01501.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TLSO4IsYZ8I/AAAAAAAAAq4/BytgRqzf-cw/s72-c/DSC05463.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16983437.post-8021482904889389448</id><published>2010-09-30T10:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-25T16:25:02.156-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='projects'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='recording'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Trees'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Skivies'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Action Friend'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Osyluth'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Toshi Kasai'/><title type='text'>Denver録音旅行記(後編)</title><content type='html'>19日、休み。とは言っても20日からのTreesの録音を控えて、それに向け機材を移動しなければならない。4時間の睡眠の後、TreesのギターのJHの仕事場に機材を運び込む。JHはギター職人でその仕事場の隣がTreesのリハーサルスタジオになっている。 &lt;br /&gt;機材を運び終え、友人の家へ向かう。前から約束していた、フットボールの試合を観る事になる。大学フットボールは観た事があるがNFLの試合は生まれて初めて。駐車場ではテールゲートパーティーが行われている。バスを改造して、BBQのグリルを詰めるようにしたるものや、派手な格好の人々が目につく。見知らぬ人にビアーボング(点滴の用に上から管をたらして一気飲みする)を強制させられる。ホームオープン試合ともあり3機のF16が頭上を一瞬にして遠ざかる等の派手な幕開け。試合もホームチーム、Broncosが一方的に責める。40度くらいの暑さで席が暑い。この試合はBroncos史上最高の暑さらしい。 &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EBg1cVl7_rI/TKTEhG2TfmI/AAAAAAAAAqY/RGNVpiu-2Kg/s1600/DSC05574.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Business</title><content type='html'>Myspace等で知っている人もいるかも知れないが、Big Businessに4人目が参加した。現在、LAで人気のあるローカルバンド、400 Blowsに所属するScott Martinがギターを弾く事になる。勿論、自分も続けるが、スタジオの仕事も辞められないので、今まではライブだと時々2人(Melvinsが忙しいのでそれほどなかったが)になったりしていたがこれからは3人になったり4人になったりすると思われる。 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;これは自分が加入する時に既に話し合っていたことでもある。CoadyとJaredの2人は自分がレコーディングの仕事を自分が辞められない事を知っていた。彼らも年の半分以上はMelvinsとの仕事をしているため、自分がBig Businessだけで食って行けるような事は考えてはいなかった。 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Scottが入る事によって、アルバム、ライブにも更にギターハーモニー等に磨きがかかる事は間違えない。そして自分はもう少し、加入した当時ライブで行っていた、シンセや玩具楽器による演奏にも集中していきたい。もう少し歌にも力を入れたいとも思っている。 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ともあれ、現在練習と曲作りを開始。Melvinsのツアーもあるので直ぐに実現するとは思わないがアルバム制作に取りかかることも間違えない。これからも新生Big Businessをよろしく。&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9GY35tovA0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div

/&gt;と、言えば、http://www.avclub.com/articles/the-imminent-death-of-the-music-industry-is-awesom,42011/ &lt;br /&gt;まだ確認はしていなが、このアルバムがビルボードのチャート200位にランクされたらしい。彼ら、自分はこれで金持ちになる、と言うようなことは絶対にあり得ない話なのだが、彼が注目されるのは非常に嬉しい。前にこのアルバムの事を書く時、”日本ではオリコン初登場20位”って冗談で書こうと思ったが、アメリカでは冗談ではなくなった。192位くらいまで上がってほしいものだ。&lt;div

Recordingsから発売される。それに付け加え、最近知った事だが、2003年にイギリスで作られた、1993-1996年のAtlantic時代のベスト盤、Melvinmaniaが国内盤となって、GraindHouse Recordingsより同じ日に発売される。最近ファンになった人、それらの廃盤になったCDを探している人には良い話かもしれない。ボーナストラックも付くらしい。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ちなみに発売中(?)グラインドハウス60号に有島博志氏によるDaleとのインタビューが載っている。こっちの内容の9割は新作に付いて。Shrinebuilderに付いても語っている。Tower Records、HMV、書店、amazonで購入可能。&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();}

Answer"が日本だと前作のEP、"Aphorisms"と合わせて発売される(ている？9日だと思ったけど．．．)。販売元はDaymare(http://mixi.jp/view_community.pl?id=129889)。&lt;br /&gt;音楽業界が沈んでいるとか言うけど、バンド、レーベルが減っているようには感じられないし、ライブでぶいぶい言わせているバンドが自分の周りにも多い。Red Sparowesもその中の一つ。アメリカやヨーロッパではかなりのの人気を誇っている。このアルバムのメディアの評価も高い！でも日本だとどうだろう？大人気とは決して言えない。&lt;br /&gt;こういった感じのバンドの存在も多くは感じられない。別に斬新で狂ったような感じを受けるヘビーさがあるわけでもノイズでギャンギャン言わせている訳でもない。でもこういったちょっと懐かしいようで新しいようで、聴いていて心地が良く、またヘビーな面もあるバンドがもっといても良いんじゃないかとも思う。&lt;br /&gt;商売だろうから人気のあるものをかき回すのはわかるけど、ちょっとこういった変わったバンドもメディアで取り上げてもらいたいものだ。仕事上、自分にとっては自信作の一枚でもある。多くの人に聴いてもらいたい。日本でもっと人気が上がり彼らが来日できるチャンスが来る事を願う。買って皆に言いふらしてほしい！マジでよろしく！&lt;div

/&gt;13日目、 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;のって来た。一気に4曲。今日の映画はClint Eastwoodドル箱三部作の2作、『荒野の用心棒』(原題：Per un pugno di dollari、英題：A Fistful of Dollars)と『夕陽のガンマン』(原題：Per qualche dollaro in più 英題：For a Few Dollars More)。 ちなみに『荒野の用心棒』は黒澤明監督の『用心棒』の許可無しのパクリ。ミックスしている曲が映画に非常に合う。AdamとPageがすれ違いでスタジオに顔を出す。 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14日目、 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;最終日。昨日の時点でアルバムに入る曲のミックスは終了。一曲の手直しをしてリミックスの作業。やりたい放題。途中、AdamとPage、HELMETのドラマーがKyle同じ時間にスタジオに遊びに来たのでそれらとアルバムの視聴会。前2作的なアルバムを予想していた彼らはその違いに驚いた様子。Buzzは自分にリミックスを任せ早めに帰宅。Daleが一人残り自分とClem Burkeの弾いた曲のテイクを選び、その後帰宅。自分は一人残り、リミックスを続ける。一曲以外全てのリミックスを終え、２週間続いたセッションの幕を閉じる。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

Yorkへ向かい、録音最終日は欠席。残されたDaleのパーカッションから入る。その後はJaredの曲にほぼ集中。 ボーカルに効果音を足して録音。非常にサイケデリックな感じに鳴って来た。仕上げにBuzzのギター。Buzzは完全に曲を把握していないようで、曲を覚えながら弾く。最後に曲を一気に聴いて、足りないものはないか確認し、ちょっとしたものを録音して、録音は無事終了。 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10日目、 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;スタジオBに移り、ミックス開始。遅めの曲から入り、2曲終了。スタジオも前回、前々回とは違うものであり、その上、曲作りもかなり試行を変えて来ている。今までの4人編成とはかなりちがった味になってきているのは2曲を終了した時点ではっきりしてきた。 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11日目、 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buzzの提案により、スタジオの壁に埋め込まれているメインスピーカーの間にある、テレビモニターにDVDをつなぎ、映画を音無で観ながら、ミックス。今日はLawrence of Arabia(アラビアのロレンス)を観ながら2曲ミックス。曲ごとにギター、ベースの音が多少異なって録音したのがミックス時に非常に効果的になってきた。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

/&gt;録音作業も大詰め。Jaredのボーカルにしばし集中。先日遊びに来た、Blondieのドラマー、Clem Burkeに演奏を頼んでいたようで、急遽、カバー曲を準備。残された、マイクでCoadyとDaleのドラム録り。夕方食事を済ませ、数曲のラフミックスを行い、タイミングよくClemが予定通りにスタジオに到着。曲を2度ほど聴いた後、録音開始。Blondieのみならず、IggyやBob Dylan、Pete Townshend等とセッションを重ねた経験が1テイク目から感じられる。興奮して無意味に、マイクを直しに行ったりしてしまった。ソロではかなりジャズを勉強した感じに聴こえて来た。帰り際、ClemはMelvinsの面々に向かって、「声をかけてくれてありがとう。Melvinsと演奏できるとは思わなかった。嬉しいよ」と自分の事のように嬉しく思える言葉をかけてくれた。 &lt;br /&gt;無事Clemの録音を終了した後、Buzzは自分に「Blondieの一人を録音したんだ。Melvinsを録音していて良かっただろう？」と聴いて来たので、笑いながら、「Melvinsと仕事して初めて良い経験が出来たよ」と２人で大笑い。 &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"

/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;残った時間を使って、遊び曲を録音。当初の予定では自分がピアノを弾くはずであったが、録音の方が手薄になるのでDaleがピアノとドラムを担当。Jaredが口でベースラインを歌う。これがあまりにも面白くて涙が出て来た。楽し過ぎて怖い。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img

5、6日目。</title><content type='html'>5日目、 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;口内炎が治り始めて来た。ようやく本格的に楽しくなって来た。スタジオにつき仕事をして間もなく、Coadyが食事を買って来てくれると言う。In 'n Out！久々にスープ以外の物を口にした。自分がそれを頬張る見て、Buzzが「In 'n Outを食べれるなら、口はほぼ治ったってことだな。これからうるさくなるなぁ」とイヤミを言ってくる。 &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"

/&gt;仕事中、子育てで疲れているのか、Daleが高いびきをしてソファーで寝ている。自分の持って来たメガフォンのサイレンを頭の近くでならして起こす。その模様はCoadyのカメラに収められた。&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie"

/&gt;Coadyはラップトップのカメラを使いライブ画像送信(http://www.ustream.tv/channel/coadydrums)。あらかじめ、Twitterでリンクを載せていたようで数十人のファンがそれを観ている。 &lt;br /&gt;ギター録り、ボーカル録りに集中。ハーモニーはうるさい自分はようやく喋るようになったのであれこれ言いプロダクションにもようやく気が入って来た。セッションの後半はラフミックスを作り始める。面白いアルバムになる事を確認。 &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"

/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6日目、 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;昨日まで十数個あった口内炎が数個に減った。仕事は昨日とほぼ同じでボーカルに集中。コンピューター録音の利点を生かし、効果音を交えて数トラック同時にボーカルを録る。今日の秘密兵器は自作チューブマイク。と言っても真空管のマイクではなく鉄のチューブにマイクを入れてそのチューブの効果音を録音しているだけの事。これがなかなかいい音で鳴ってくれた。 &lt;br /&gt;ボーカルを休め、ベース録りを行う。無事全てのベースが終了。その後、ギター、ドラムオーバーダブに力を入れる。今日もラフミックスを数曲作りセッション終了。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

3、4日目</title><content type='html'>3日目 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;スタジオにつき仕事を始めようとすると、Daleの所にJaredから電話が入り、スタジオの直ぐ近くで車が止まり動かなくなったと連絡が入った。皆で車押し。Buzzは「車を押すのは10代以来だ」と冗談を言いながら車を押していた。 &lt;br /&gt;スタジオに戻るとレコードが数枚入ったダンボールの箱がスタジオの入り口に置かれている。数ヶ月前に頼まれたリミックスのEP(http://www.timebomb.co.jp/prod/datail/22435.html ).。ミックス自体は前回のセッションで終わらせていたが、それをマスタリングして送るよう頼まれていた。それが手元に届いた。 &lt;br /&gt;セッション開始。自分の口内炎最悪。しゃべると舌が悲鳴をあげる。食べ物、飲み物を食べようとすると頭に痛みが響く。セッションにも集中し辛い。 &lt;br /&gt;歯を食いしばりセッションを行う。一日中ドラム録り。ドラムのオーバーダブも有り、一曲に関してはドラムのみで41チャンネル。前回での録音の、最高63チャンネルを超す勢い。 &lt;br /&gt;セッション終了間際、Melvinsの友人、Bがその友人とともにスタジオに遊びに来た。その友人はBlondieのドラマー、Clem Burke。後で来た話だが、ドラムのオーバーダブをしていてDaleはClemのが来たのでかなり緊張していたと言う。演奏自体では分からなかったが、顔を見た時、そんな気はした。 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try

/&gt;今日は一曲ボーカル録音から入る。Buzzのボーカルを終えた後、4人のギャング・ボーカル。この曲はちょっと変わっているのでドラムより先にボーカルを録り、その上でドラムを録音。その曲と他の一曲の後半を録り、ドラム録りが無事終了。ベース録りに入る。ベースは前回、前々回とちょっと試行を変え、曲ごとに音を少し変えて録音。自分が思うにはHostile Ambient Takeover時の色々なベースの音が入ったアルバムになるような予感がして来た。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'
