____________________________
---Firstly, let's talk about now ( Mid of May. ) How had the GazettE been?
We're doing the recording of next upcoming single. Due to the earthquake disaster, our lives had been postponed so our work this time is considering to be ahead of the schedule. Since we're having lives replacement too, the schedule had been tight. Till now, it might be we don't have good time at all.
---The production after Vortex right? How will it be?
If you want be to say it as one, it'll be something that sounds good. I feel satisfied, very. Even it's not as ideal, but it's quite close to it. " We sound far. [ Good feeling. ]", we feel this. As before this we would have been "Why we had gone so far away till this? [ Bad feeling ]" but we had gradually become closer to that [ That music that sounded far from what they usually do. ] On how we can become that, I actually don't know too. It's impossible because of new instruments. However, since Vortex, the picking [ picking of the instruments ] had been reduced.
---Does this means, those are no longer necessary?
Um. When there's a lot of picking, even the rhythm can be easily done and go along with, " I want to play it again. " and I want to further improve the bass. When I was picking, for that instant, it had gone lower [ the sound of bass ]. I came to realized that I want to avoid that as far as possible, so I made a little change.
---When you realized that, had anything new happened?
Particularly no. Somehow this is better. During the pre-process, " Don't come, this attack. " this feeling came too. As the result, when the bass' sound attack came, if the guitar come at this time, it will not be heard. So I thought of strengthening the foundation. This thought became stronger than before. Still, as a bassist who supports the base, I think it's good not to do unnecessary things. It's seen as something outdated, but for me it's something cool.
---Even this is usually unseen but when it's not there, you actually have the reason of existence.
I just want to feel that kind of existence. Even we separated our parts, but bass is usually something that will blast. When I thought of that, I don't need unnecessary phrases anymore.
---I see. The flow since Vortex, how are you going to explain it? Surely before and after the live of Tokyo Dome, even it's just part of the realization, it's should be something different [ or wrong ] right?
Nope, it's something unrelated. Well, not to say to pack Tokyo Dome up, it's not something remarkable (laughs). But this year, somehow there are more freedom.
---That means last year there was no freedom right? (laughs)
Even last year has last year's freedom, while we're noting about Dome, " Let's make our target full of Tokyo Dome! ", have that thought then decide everything. To release single at which month, how will the song be, to decide what will it be like, " Let's do whatever we wanted to do at that place. ", we barely had that kind of freedom. Those had been decided without us. In comparison, this time is " Let's do this over there. " Isn't it a big freedom? Last year wasn't a comfort, this year I want to do things that will only make our mood to be good (laughs)
---That's straight forward. (laughs) Before this, when you all decided to do the first Budoukan, you said before when you all heading to it, during the long tour, you guys had been united right? Along Dome, does this happens too?
During Dome, it was very hard. I thought of surely there will be unity but when we started it, there are many problems occured... Somehow when the problems occured, we'll be " I want to end Dome as soon. " We have to end it quickly. Therefore when we ended, we really feel relieved. Actually, we don't feel like ending last year. (laughs)
to be continued...
