AFA11 – zomgwtfbbq
I suppose you can already guess what this is going to be about! As you have probably heard, the next Mikupa will be held in Singapore, at the Anime Festival Asia 11, on the quirky date of 11.11.11, Friday night. If the Sapporo concert was anything to go by, we’d be getting the magical glass screen and also an exciting lineup of new songs by popular producers. I do hope they play some old favorites too, though!
One of the things to look forward to is definitely the 39’s, the live band who played for the previous Vocaloid concerts. I really enjoy their live arranges of classic songs, and damn, their skill level is really something to behold! Also, I wonder if we’ll see any music producers being invited, too.

Happy 23rd birthday!
Many warm wishes from fans all over the world, and from CDJapan sales are going, looks like their single and album sales will be pretty good this time! Pre-orders are already sold out by the way.
Many more Perfume years to come! \o/
No commentsRandom ramblings and utterly belated updates
This is, first and foremost, a random post on what’s in store for local anime fans and for myself. It involves AFA’s press preview conference on what has been confirmed last month (told you it’s utterly belated) and speculations for upcoming guests and information that will be revealed by the next few weeks, as well as my own ‘obsession’ on going for Perfume’s live concerts.

I don’t have pictures for this overview of the concert, but what I’m about to share are snippets of what I’ve experienced and observed watching on the 2nd level of the Lasalle theater location. :D

No commentsOn the ZANEEDS DJ set at STGCC 2011
Ume here! It’s been a while since I’ve last updated, university has just started for me so I’ve been busy.
If you remember the posts from several months back, where I raved deliriously about Vocaloid Night , you might guess my little routine of checking into the V_N Ustream lives every third Wednesday of the month, and also visiting mogra’s stream once in a while. I’ve developed quite the appetite for vocaloid and anisong-based dance music!
And here comes ZANEEDS, back to Singapore! They’ve had done a few DJ lives at conventions in other countries (Most recently at Anime Expo), and having heard DJ Torinos’s mixes from their website, I decided that I really wanted to hear them DJ live.
The nice thing about ZANEEDS is that they pick songs that they feel best fit the country, or the audience tastes. This makes them very suited for performances overseas, as they can deliver a general sort of all-purpose fun mix most Vocaloid fans can identify with.
So when I heard the news that STGCC would be inviting ZANEEDS for their own Vocaloid DJ night, I could hardly contain my excitement! I had the lightsticks left over from Miku Party, and they were certainly more than enough ammunition for the very first Vocaloid DJ set to be held in Singapore.

As most Perfume fans know by now, “Polyrhythm” was chosen to be used as background music for a scene in Cars 2 and the song will make it into the official soundtrack.
For this reason, Perfume were in Los Angeles, California for the Cars 2 movie premiere on June 18th.
Here’s a video of them being interviewed on the red carpet.
