Last time on "Twitter in Translation," we learned that Mr. Hirasawa's simple meals are (for some reason) sometimes jokingly referred to as "kasu," which I've been translating as "dregs" because "scum" is a bit too gross-sounding for me. :|

But what happens when someone asks him about these dregs in an interview? )

But Hirasawa would have been hit hardest because he's the leader and the one to write most of the songs. I don't know exactly what he was put through, but the fact that he and just about every other member of P-MODEL I see producing music are under independent labels speaks pretty strongly.
Them trying "erase" him from the industry - it figures! The industry doesn't know talent when it sees it, and sucks the souls from the people they do peddle out by milking them as much as they can.
I'm grateful for independent labels and even more so the internet. It lets independent artists thrive~

It's a shame that most record companies these days are basically just businesses, with about as much creative capacity as your average mollusc. Yet they have all the advertising power, so you have almost an entire generation of kids listening to nothing but 'dregs', thinking that's the only music there is.
I can see how that must be so annoying to true creatives like Hirasawa. I wish he was more well-known over here, he would have absolutely loads of fans.
