This vs GLOW

TROLLOLOL.

In this episode, Shichi-sensei attracts your attention with a recording of her talking about whether we should use Misuta Myujikku or Mister Music.
.... ooor she could be trolling you for the first few minutes of the speech, talking crap about unrelated shit
SO, ERR. I recorded the instructions instead of typing them. I guess, uh, it's bad in some ways (troublesome to listen, painful to hear, talk too fast, talk to slurrily), BUT IT'S GOOD IN SOME WAYS BECAUSE YOU CAN HEAR IT DIRECTLY YEEAH.
Warning: Within the speech, Shichi-sensei displays extreme narcissism and talks almost as fast as Ryan Higa. There is also funny off-tuned singing in the background to entertain you.

Hey, guys! ~~~ヾ(＾∇＾) Exaaaams yaaaaay. ｍ（．＿．）ｍ

A-anyway, I am writing a post today to re-announce the deadline for Mr Music! Mr Music is due by December 2011. Please take your time and focus on your exams! ♪(ﾉ´∀｀*)ﾉ I'd additionally like to take a bit of space to apologise for always pushing deadlines onto you. I was ultimately reminded that this chorus is a chorus made out of fun, for fun, and will hopefully always be fun for us! （￣へ￣） I'd like to remind everyone that this is a do-or-don't chorus, which means if you feel like taking part, you take part, and if you don't, you don't take part! For example, if someone just goes "OH MAN I LIKE THIS SONG, WHO WANTS TO DO EET? 8D", then those who are interested and like the song go ahead with their planning while those that have no time (I-I don't know how to make my tone sound nice but I'm sincerely not hating on anyone who doesn't have time. What I'm saying is I totally understand if you don't have time, so please don't be pressurised by this chorus! This chorus isn't a serious chorus, after all.) can choose not to participate at no negative cost.
Remember to have fun and organise as many projects as you want amongst yourselves (all of you are part of a community! I encourage you to have fun on your own! This community is more of a connecting platform than for ShichiHitler to be the only one making any rules! I'd be insanely ecstatic to see someone asking lightheartedly for a duet partner. ;A; COME ON GUYS INTERACT MOAR don't make me force a secret love letter routine for you guys to get to know each other better *coughsvomitscoughs*.
Additionally, I'd like everyone to check out the new poll! Also, a clarification: Project Star can now be ignored if you're an attachment member or do not wish to take part! We'd love to hear your voices!
Now, for a new feature of our programme:

(･ω･｀)
Every post from here after will feature a song! You may be introduced to a song you've never heard before, whether a chorus or cover or even an instrumental jazz piece, and you may just fall in love!
Here we go! Let's start with a pretty-sounding chorus:

Hey-ho, what's the dilly, yo?

HEY GUYZZ

We should standardise on what sort of style we're singing Mr Music in.
Like, some people sing "Hei Misuta Myujiku, tsuyoku daite" while some sing "Hey Mr Music, tsuyoku daite" and it's very messy, so can we all sing the same thing: either the Engrish or English?

Give your opinions in the cbox~

Harmony Guide.

My lovely minions, pigeons and smidgens, I come to you today bearing the gift of harmony. I slogged for more than seven hours to bring you this little treasure, in which you will discover a complete and concise guide to harmonizing Mr Music (although the file title has "Almost Complete" in it). Several members will recognise its various two predecessors which were rather short and sketchy. This incarnation, however, has been mixed carefully (as carefully as a flying fishing line) and will be a joy to practice with. I took seven hours because the techniques involved in creating harmonies technologically out of thin air are tedious and dangerous, and I performed an adequate mixing job to try and improve microphone qualities, as well as try to make them similar. The latter was rather unsuccessful due to certain members enjoying extremely bad environmental/laptopical luck. I can hear an effort at energy and I have to admit that it's commendable, although it would be really awesomer if we could all sound happier! I'm sure we don't want our debut to sound like soggy mud pancakes. A strange way to do it is to smile when you sing - not so much as to not be able to pronounce properly, but a small smile. It brings a certain essence into your voice, using the same feeling when a person can hear you smiling happily over the phone conversation although he can't see you. When you listen, you will also get a taste of what some of you sound like together. I advise that you download this to your MP3/cellphone/whatever and listen to it on repeat for a minimum of 4 times. After listening enough to know the sequence it goes in, you are required to sing along. You will then be able to differentiate between the harmonies and the melody. After you've gotten the hang of it, send me a recording (this time, MP3 format is acceptable) of you singing along to the tutorial so that I can see how much more time we need. ALL of you have to do this. We have obviously shot way past the deadline, but let's not hold grudges, eh~?
Here's the link: Fish, fries, and anything rice!

Have fun, and don't hesitate to ask (non-stupid) questions if you need help~!
Kthnxbai.

Project ☆ Star

Duets have to go through me to ensure that the lines are well-divided! Other than that, it's entirely up to you on how you want to put a spin on it. Want to sing Tsumugi Uta in Chinese, or the MELT 2M MIX? So long as the off vocal exists, it shall be done!  オメデトウ　( ^ _ ^)∠☆PAN！  If you want to have a bit of fun and try mixing yourself, it's also an option! If you're passing it to me to mix, please give me instructions if you want me to spruce up bits and pieces with special effects like ambient echo or a radio effect. In essence, you'll be the director of your own song, so take charge and let your star shine through!
Don't hesitate to ask others what you could sing if you're at a loss! Personally, I find that each person has their own abilities that they can use to full advantage. Peaceful, sweet voices should sing piano ballads or slow songs, while "present" and "dark" voices shouldn't fear rock songs! Still, you can never put it in concrete that gentle voices can't sing heavy songs or vice versa - you'll be surprised. The point is to get to know yourself better - not just think that you fail superbly, but where you've failed. Then, you're on your way to the top!

Over and out,
Shichi

Sighs.

Yume, I haven't seen your practice runs in ages and I have yet to hear any harmonies. We need to meet on Skype soon and discuss something. At least I'm reassured that you've read all the posts, so good job on that. Mic no problems, pitch no problems... I need to hear your timing and your harmonies.

Choco, we need to work on getting you a new mic. Also, I can hear your television in the background and it is freaking loud. If you have questions, PLEASE CHECK THROUGH THE BLOG as you should have. Good job, though, as I've heard your improvement.

Ryuji, you should find a way to bring your mic over to your country and if you can't then please try to get your lines in before your flight and just read all the posts, man. Just ask questions if you're not sure, man. Good work with Photoshop, though. Apologies for the torture you experience.

Ahika, you have to keep shooting me tracks of your practice runs. I need to deal with your mic problems. I will not tolerate behaviour like "Eeew, I sound so sucky here, don't want to send lah". And while I'm directing this at you, I'm also directing this sentence at EVERY OTHER MEMBER. I also need to hear you try harmonising ASAP.

Kana, keep shooting me practice tracks. If you can, bring your mic over to your country. If you can't, then... Do your best. You've learned the song well, but you obviously haven't read past three posts of this blog. Please read all the posts. I'm not even sure you're reading this post, crap.



If I sound like a douchebag in this post, well, dude, I'm abusing my authority here and you can't do anything about it so just listen to my instructions and reap the benefits.





Mainly, everyone, read all the goddamned posts.
