I'm glad/mad about

漫画倉庫に本を売りに行こうと思って、車で聴くプレイリストつくっていざ出陣したら、もっともっと曲を聴いていたくていろんなところに道草しにいきました。
車を持つようになる前、親や友だちの車に乗るのははっきりいって好きじゃなかった。自分の車じゃないから自分が聴きたい曲を流せないということだけで。親の車ではいつもすぐヘッドフォンで耳をふさいでいます。おうちにいるならまだしも、車の中で曲が聴けないというのはそうとう辛いのです。実は友だちとわいわいお喋りするよりじっと音楽に耳を傾けていたい。それは車の中限定のはなしですが、それくらい音楽に支配されているのが今の私。

BeirutのZach Condonのよさがじわじわ分かってきて、ようやく今ブームになってます。遅いよね、わかるけど、今幸せだからそれでいいのだ。

今まさにブーム！とよべて熱中できる音楽があるのって本当に幸せだと思う。どんな名曲でも飽きるくらい聴いたら、情熱が最初に比べて少なくなってしまうのはあたりまえのこと。その情熱が一番あついときに何かにメモしておくのは大切だと思います。
あとからみたら「なんだこれ」って思うような文章になるかもしれないけど、その最初の気持ちがあったよっていうのを覚えておくのって私は好きです。

The Dodosもチェックぜんぜんしてなかったけどようやく聴けて、すぐ好きになりました。あれー誰かこのひとたち良いよってレコメンドしてよ～。たぶんしてたと思うけど。ちょう好みだよ＞＜

好きな曲に飽きてしまったけど熱中できる音楽がないっていうエアポケットの時期というのは必ずあって、そのときはもう好きな人が出てこないんじゃないかな……と心配になりますが、本当にちゃんと出てくるものなんだよね。高校生からちゃんと音楽を聴き始めて、いろんなものにはまってきた過程をふりかえると面白い。あのころはThe Coralしか見えてなかったけど、今は同じレベルで好きな人達がこんなにいるのやぞ！と。そういう点では生きてて良かったなと思います。

おまけ

レオちゃんがデコ兄ちゃん主催のチャリティマッチに出たそうです。
見よデコちゃんのこの楽しそうな顔を。バルサ時代はいい兄貴だったんですよね、ロニーやモッタちゃんとよりもデコといっしょにいるのが好きです。

currently listening to:

Now I'm preparing drawing productions. one is for a comic, another is for an animation. wish I'll make them out as soon as possible! 


by the way, I was thinking like I have to post something about music because this page has been filled with football lol
But this year, Indie Pop scene is really hot for me from the beginning of the year :) it still lasts! so I'm gonna post some music I'm just into!

The Way Out / The Books
In fact I've just found this duo recently... but they've worked nearly 10 years and already released 3rd albums. This is their 4th! gosh, I have to know them more faster.
It's gonna be launched at 20 July, so I have only 2 songs which can be downloaded from music news sites. sounds mixture of acoustic, experimental, and electronic taste. In this album they've collected samples from voices, I heard they even sampled from Gandhi's ;) it's really experimental and cooool. Although their musical taste is little bit difficult to fit in with, you can find bright phrase or beautiful melodies from them. after listening for a while, I became the one of their big fans!!


and I've found an awesome song from Youtube. unfortunately it's only on their DVD...
The Books - Classy Penguin 
 


Next! Jim Noir's brand new EP is available to download for free :)

Yes finally! You can download at http://jimnoir.com/
as always his new songs are great toooo! pretty classical! just like I'm watching retro films of Manchester. When I listen to him I always imagine scenery of Manchester. in music matter, I love into the city so much (how about in case of football? i don't know)


The Last one. The Coral released their 5th album "Butterfly House"!

This album's producer is John Leckie. Do you know who he is? He is famous for producing The Stone Roses's albums. It's really amazing thing.
Since their 4th album I could not be interested in them as past because Bill Ryder-Jones's leaving caused decreasing thier uniqueness... I thought they're just like the band of country music. but I realized they step to next level. they're gonna be modern The Byrds!
Of course I'm fan of James's lovely and gentle voice, but I'd prefer Ian's drum sounds. warm, cute and soft. He is only the drummer I can recognize him hearing sounds without his name. just listen!

focus on me

I made a slide show of my fanarts with a favorite song!
so fun to see my works on the song "What to Say" by Born Ruffians...
Totally just satisfied my own ego though :)

It's made by using "Movie Maker" that's a built-in software in Microsoft Windows. looks so cheap isn't it lol
but this time I made this only for the purpose of testing how fun to work with music. I've never wanted to make a movie because I didn't know anything about doing... Time to change! I learned that make something with favorite music was precious thing! I've been excited during editing even though it required just simple tasks. 


In the near future I'll try to make a fan video for another my favorite song :)
If someone mentions about lacking of my editing skills, I would excuse like "That's DIY!" yeah.

by the way, i drew two requested Jeffren pics :)

with Chihuahua☆

another one. hope he stay at Barcelona! 
the right one is called トドック the character of Coop Sapporo. how cute(*'ω'*)

発作的に描いたエインセとメッシ。線画の段階ではメッシ良い感じだったんですが、色塗ったらだいぶメルヘンなことに……あわわわわ
でもまエインセがかわいくかけたのでいいです。
ちなみに妄想じゃなくてホントにやってたことだからね！


そろそろW杯も終わりますね。J sportsでFoot!のセレクションをただいま再放送していて、最近ビジャレアル時代のリケルメやサラゴサ時代のアイマールにインタビューした会がやってて泣けました。
たった4年でここまで代表ってかわるものなのよねえ
あのときのサラゴサ、ミリート兄弟がそろって所属していたんですよね。
アルゼンチンの家族愛は他の国民よりものすごいところがあるけれど、ミリ兄弟はそうでもないのかなーと感じます。あんまり仲良さそうに見えないんだよねｗ
アルヘンの人って家族ラブ！ってイメージがあったから逆に新鮮でした。
でもガビはよくメッシを弟みたいに可愛がってるけどなー。




ところで。
W杯期間中はものすごい勢いで検索でたどりつくお客さまが増えているのですが、参考までにちょっと検索ワードのほうをちらっと見させていただいてます。

でもさすがにエドガル・バレトのタトゥーの意味まではわかりませんよ
ていうかあのタトゥーださいからあんまり興味な（ｒｙ


まあそんなわけでサッカーにうつつぬかしすぎて、このブログにまだ洋楽の絵すらあげてないことに気づきました；いそげー！笑

keep calm and...

Argentina 0-4 Germany


I have no words for review of this match hahaha.
I've concerned that Maradona might continue being coach of argentina. NO WAY LOL we need an expert not idol or hero for it. But some of players asked him to continue...for what? I have no idea. He was the reason why Argentina lost with such a terrible result.

anyway, poor argies! Leo didn't cry on the pitch, but I heard he started doing at the locker room :( such strong that holding back his tear in front of public... Kun, Higuain and Burdisso comforted him. I was glad to know that. Nico, such a great man!


Now I start imagining 4years later :) Leo & Higuain will be 27, Kun & Di Maria will be 26, and Pastore will be 24! they will improve their skills and sounds gooood! hope they all will be selected once more.

who's that old man? I've been interested in him! looks so wise or gentle doesn't he? 

why oh why. but well done leo! have some rests now. 

although it's not perfect selection, I love to see them enjoying football. 

nico(*ﾟーﾟ*) I'll check you at Rome's games in next season!

I was relived that Argentine people welcomed them warmly. haha sleepy Heinze looks cuter :) thanks & big hag for all!
