[blog translation] anis official blog 2010/04/30

[raatkerani]

I'm always lost in Anis' blogs. Both in the official solo blog and the MONORAL blog, his Japanese is confusing me. There are words that seems wrongly typed or out of place and too weird to comprehend, or maybe this is how non-native speakers try express himself using Japanese? Or maybe he's got this weird sense of humor in his way of writing.

I hope I won't give up translating the way I did.

I'm no native speaker of Japanese nor English, therefore this translation is way, way, way far from good.

Aloha!
To those who came to play to the accoustic live the day before yesterday, thank you.
A lot of highlights happened*. Huraa!** Kazuo-chan who came to play, and participated late at night, thank you. This is the first time I used an effector called loop. You can record sounds that you like on field, and play it repeatedly in its system. If you're piling up for harmony, it becomes erotic. As for Mr. April, Papa came. Papa sang both Goodbye from both our original song and Beatles. Because it was so fun, I didn't realize it's over. Afterwards, regarding RENT press conference, I'm feeling nervous. Everyone was attaching -san on my name when calling, I'm feeling happy. (laugh) I really thank you for always being nice. RENT is a new challenge that I won't face alone, to feel this challenge with everyone is heartening. As concerning the accoustic live, back to origin, it's a place where a lot of music that I love can be played freely. Look forward to it every month. Somehow, I have a hunch that if you can't enjoy doing music freely, then you can't continue. By the way, Papa said that everyone are cute and nice. Hearing him speak that way, I was really glad. Cute♪ Next week BELT in Osaka～.

much love anis


* I don't understand this sentence, but it seems like it.
** I'm only concluding that he meant to say "hurah" or "huria" but since there no hu in kana system, it became fura-. Not sure, though...

I miss MONORAL so much. I miss the musical spice that is Anis.

Little did I know that Anis was guesting in a Korean pop singer Uhm Jung-Hwa. He sang in the song called In This Rain. Why am I always late when it comes to this guy? He guested in Uhm Jung-Hwa's album in 2004 called Self Control. I didn't realize he actually linked to her (old and currently dysfunctional) official homepage in anisweb since way back. I wasn't diligent enough to click over all the links he provided.

So... anyone has that song? Could anyone share? I'm searching through the net, but perhaps I have no skill in looking for Korean songs... no result. Yet..!!

Why are things related to him are so darn hard to find?

*cries and promises herself not to fall for indies singer anymore*
