the night before 4 of the Singapore-based VAMPires – Ranbi, Hamu, Kenji, DannyBunny – met up to give Ranbi a farewell dinner. he’s heading over to Osaka for overseas exchange and we won’t be seeing him for another half a year or so. actually, Kenji and i had just sent him off at the airport tonight. typing this, i realise i’m going to miss him alot. he’s been the central figure of the satellite group of fans here, and have always been fast and first in getting everyone together.

take care, Ranbi! hope it’s not too samui over there. we’ll see you on VAMP!

so, a little explanation about the pictures. we got our goods that night which included the DVDs (both normal and f’u'n club press), posters (Raka Ryushui & DVD ones), and Best Finger. we couldn’t wait to find out which of the 5 colours we got for the best album cover…so you can imagine the expressions on our faces after the grand reveal.

obviously the last photo is a pun. =)

Folder 5

here’s Folder 5 singing a medley of songs from Akina Nakamori and Seiko Matsuda! it’s an energetic performance, but they sang Akina’s songs really badly! interestingly, Seiko’s songs weren’t ruined as much. what does it say? LOL.

tracks in StrongSpace

hi guys, all karaoke tracks which DJ Suzy had contributed are now available in StrongSpace. =)

Ranbi, thanks for sharing the Best Finger 2005 versions of  少女A , 北ウイング, 十戒 , 1/2の神話.

Hamu mentioned that Akina sounded a tad cutesy in the new version of " 北ウイング". i agree that the new version is nearer to the original one and the pitch is alot higher than what she’s probably capable of hitting these days. so i’m suspecting there might be some audio tweaking there. it’s so easy to increase pitches these days with audio software.

any thoughts?

Best Finger demo

You can listen to "Best Finger" demo on Oricon site.

Hamu took a listen to the "version 2005". They all sound more or less like the original. That may explain why no credit was given for 編曲. Wonder if you’ve noticed, on UJ site, no credit was given to all the hits re-recorded.
