My attitude is always, ‘going my way’ ..

common senses sometimes become bottleneck. How I interprets common senses is the most important. Just believing common senses directly n’ straightforwardly is such a fool thing to me. That never makes people progress.

For example, many Japanese say ‘elder people are great n’ intelligent, always have a communication with much respect, and be proud of them. ‘ and this makes a sort of hierarchy at school-life, family-life, social-life etc…

I don’t like this opinion. There’re many great younger people, on the other hand, there’re many ugly elder people also. Age shouldn’t be a important factor for communication and life, at least I guess. (Of course, I always treat elderly people gentle, while I’m on bus / train etc… that’s not the thing I’m saying)  I hate Japanese words, such as “SENPAI” / “KOUHAI” kind of things…  I will never be angry even if some younger people talk to me casually. Elder people are all intelligent n’ we should be proud of them?  Treat “SENPAI” with much respect? Never be kidding. There’re so much unrespectable “SENPAI” right?  Also, It’s so awful when I have to be loyal to„,  awful, too talkative, non-intelligent elder people. Why do I have to do that? Do these thing are important for our progress? I don’t think so. 

It seems I’m not used to a traditional Japanese communication, because my communication basis have been American / English styles for years. 

My way is important. 

ummmm…. my way!!

haha! very Joost. :)

Duck Sauce ‘Big Bad Wolf’

“Big Bad Wolf” “is pretty simple, and it can mean anything, really, so we wanted the video to have its own narrative,” says A-Trak, one-half of the dance duo Duck Sauce, along with DJ Armand Van Helden. “Remember when dance music videos used to actually be creative? Like when you think back to Aphex Twin, Fatboy Slim and Daft Punk… I don’t know why the genre’s videos became so generic in recent years.

“When Keith [Schoffield] came up with this idea of ‘crotchfaces,’ we just thought it was hilarious,” A-Trak continues. “He started coming up with all these gags and describing the characters living in this sort of parallel world, and we were sold. He wasn’t sure if we’d be down to play the leads, but our take on this was, if we’re going to do this, we need to go all the way. So we played the dickheads, essentially.”

nnn’ so nice! Fantastic Plastic Machine (Tomoyuki Tanaka - what we always call him “FPM”) remixes the legendary Ennio Morricone - “BELINDA MAY”

Too young to die. We lost many talented musicians n’ DJs this year, for example, Japanese people encountered shocking news of Rei Harakami in July, and that made me feel loss and end of adolescence.  (I payed tribute to him at my “Happiness” compilation.) 

Please don’t stop playing his nice tracks, deejays! Of course, I won’t stop doing that. Rest in peace, DJ Mehdi. - Kota.
