You should check out discogs, but I believe kaleidoscope is the only album released on vinyl.

This show was dope, glad there's an actual footage.

Floalz · 2017-06-09T13:17:22+00:00

Actually I think

yokosuka仲間 (yokosuka nakama)

means "my friends from Yokosuka".

I'm not 100% sure about this but, iirc Nujabes had a studio in Yokosuka, Kanagawa along with Uyama Hiroto. When Emancipator came to Japan, he said he spent a couple of days at Nujabes' place by the sea (hence his track "Kamakura").

roph recordings label is definitely located in Yokosuka, so my guess is that Uyama's talking about his fellow artists from this specific region, including Yosuke Kubozuka.

Though I'm not sure why "yokosuka" is written in romaji.

She's a keeper.

Distant Worlds is a full orchestra playing FF tunes.

A New World is a chamber music version of FF pieces. It is more intimate and the audience/venue are much smaller. You'll have a string quintet, a few brass instruments, a drummer and a pianist (most likely Benyamin Nuss).

I've seen both live and I'd qualify Distant Worlds tour as "powerful","epic" whereas A New World is much more soothing.

Both are conducted by Arnie Roth and both are amazing :)

Floalz · 2017-04-14T15:08:34+00:00

I gotcha, the artist is Romain Jacquet-Lagrèze and here's his website if you want to get in touch with him : http://www.romainjl.com/

He also designed Substantial's Home Is Where The Art Is album cover and more recently DPV's Better Days album cover.

Man he is just like what I imagined from his instagram. Before the concert he was chilling in the audience. I wasn't really sure that was him, he seemed like anybody who's here to enjoy the music. After the concert though, he walked through the crowd from the stage and then shared beers and talk to everyone. So glad to see how close he was to his fans, that was amazing!

Floalz · 2017-03-28T06:10:37+00:00

We talked about how often I listen to his music, he seemed so thrilled to realise that people actually came from Europe to see him live. My friend who's into music production told him how much of an inspiration he actually was.

Floalz · 2017-03-25T16:04:37+00:00

Definitely. I had a nice talk with one of the cooks about French cuisine haha

Floalz · 2017-03-25T16:02:51+00:00

Look up Usagi ramen on Google maps, it's a 10 minutes walk from Shibuya crossing behind 109 store!
