[mixtape] TechnoPopLove

Here's something I've been planning to do for a LONG time now but I originally wanted to do it live using Traktor and record it all in one take, it's just I'm not all that great at using it. I took a different route and tried doing it in FLStudio and just played with all their waveforms. It turned out to be a lot easier than expected. I bumped into a few roadblocks but nothing I couldn't hurdle over. Don't mind a few of the dodgy transitions and me forgetting to lock the pitch on some of the songs but oh well. I'll remember to do it for the 2nd one I release... if that ever happens. Anyway, here's the tracklist:

Perfume - love the world
capsule - Get Down
capsule - FLASH BACK
Suzuki Ami meets Nakata Yasutaka - FREE FREE
Aira Mitsuki - China Discotica
Perfume - Perfect Star Perfect Style
MEG - ROMANTIKA
Leah Dizon - Koi Shiyou ~yasutaka nakata-capsule mix~
Perfume - Secret Secret
capsule - dreamin dreamin
MEG - OK
m-flo loves MINMI - Lotta Love -yasutaka nakata capsule mix-
Perfume - Baby cruising love
capsule - Secret Paradise
Perfume - Take me Take me
capsule - I'm feeling you

[survey] there's a Cutie Party and I was invited!?

Misa attacked me on IRC to complete this and at first, I was like... ooo survey >_>.

Then, I saw the questions and was like... ooo survey ^_^.

Thus:

1. What was the first Japanese song that you ever listened to?
I can't really remember. It was probably Sailor Moon related but outside of anime and video games, the first Japanese song I listened to was Boys & Girls by Ayumi Hamasaki

2. Did it inspire you to like that group/singer, or did it turn you away?
I became a pretty big Ayu fanboy, I won't lie about that. Then, her songs started to get repetitive and I started liking other acts so my interest eventually waned. I recently reacquired the A BEST album which got me started into her music so I'm getting a bit nostalgic.

3. What is the one song that you have been listening to for the longest time?
As of Summer/Fall 2007, it's been Suzuki Ami meets Nakata Yasutaka's FREE FREE but I've had stints with other songs before... I'll let you know when I remember.

4. What group/singer have you liked the longest?
m-flo. They were the second Japanese group I got into since I've been listening to Japanese music. Also, love comes and goes knocks my socks off.

5. What is the song with the most plays on your itunes/media player?
According to my last.fm/user/johpan, Perfume's Perfect Star Perfect Style has the most plays.

6. Is that song your favorite?
It's probably my third favourite Perfume song of all time.

7. If not, what is?
I'd have to say Secret Secret contrary to what it says in my album review. Second would be Baby cruising Love.

8. Is there any one group that you can listen to all/most of the songs by? If so, who?
Perfume, though I have a bit of beef with Foundation. A little with Elevator as well. A smidge with butterfly.

9. What is your favorite agency?
UP FRONT. For obvious and not so obvious reasons. Mostly obvious though.

10. What is your favorite group/singer?
Perfume.
