[Interbyu] PSP1800 - Saga (Alice Nine) x Reika (D=OUT)


  


  

       




















This talk has no particular purpose.

Saga: It seems (laugh).
Reika: I heard rumors about this, but it really looks that way (laught).


Hahahaha. So now it has become a rumor (laughter).

Saga: Yep. People who have already done told me some things, and longed to call me (laugh). Thanks for calling me (laugh).
Reika: No, no. Thank you for coming!
Saga: What do they talk all about?


Taizo (Kra) and Reno (ViViD) had a manic talk about guitars, but Taizo and Yuji (SuG) talked about their favorite foods.

Saga: Eh!? Favorite foods?!? Then I can talk about anything, right? (Laugh). If we are to talk about something, do not even have to do it here (laugh).


You said they heard some rumors, rumors must have been good, right? (Laugh).

Saga: Ah, were the opposite (laugh). What did you talk about you?
Reika: We talked about many things, but somehow, I just talked about how much I like Nao-san (laugh).
Saga: Are you serious!? Hahahaha. How good, somehow this is getting fun (laugh). Well, what to talk about today?
Reika: I do not know (laugh).
Saga: The common point between Alice Nine, D = OUT, our producer.
Reika: Yes, Okano Hajime-san.


Okano-san is famous for rarely praising people, but I heard he praised Reika.

Saga: Hey? Seriously?!? That is so weird!
Reika: That's what I heard. Ah, that makes me happy!
Saga: Okano-san is a very picky person.
Reika: Yes.
Saga: I'm also a bit picky, so there are times when we have conflicts. We commend between us so we have plenty of conflict. Anyway, I think that is also good. Okano-san has a strong bearish temperament, but I'd say I'm really picky about the low (laugh).
Reika: Ah, it seems! I've heard that when Saga-san is doing pre-production, not plays bass and begins to look at what others are doing.
Saga: That's true. I have all my parts through step recording until the time someone tells me "What kind of part are you!?". Nobody says anything about guitars and drums. They are very, very picky about that (laugh).
Reika: Instead of having a "bearish temperament", it's more like an "artistic temperament", right?
Saga: Yes. In the time when D = OUT joined Tokuma Japan, I began to hear the demo of your very first single. At the time, I liked Reika-kun's bass. I was surprised that he was very well groomed and very well played. I realized that the person who was playing bass was completely different from me, and that interested me immediately.
Reika: Whether good or bad, I will not be surprised by what sounds I produced myself. Wanting to produce my own sounds is part of my personality. Still, I think it's "personality problem" (laughs). When I think about it, it seems the opposite. Are you the primary songwriter?
Saga: Nope, everyone is writing lately so our style is changing again. Now, by my side, instead of writing, I would go to school.
Reika: A school!?
Saga: Yep. I try to study things like music theory. You're also writing songs, right? What kind of songs do you compose?
Reika: Basic and dark.
Saga: Dark!?
Reika: Yes (laughs). Dark (laughter). So I can not write songs intense and exciting. I'm still writing songs ballads dark or medium.
Saga: Ehh ~. What are your musical roots?
Reika: My entrance was through rock THE YELLOW MONKEY-san.
Saga: I see.
Reika: What was yours?
Saga: Mine? Basically just listened to LUNA SEA-san for visual kei genre. They have a very masculine image. That's the visual kei's inside me. So I went for the visual kei. And the rest was mostly Western music. I can not emphasize one genre because I listen too much.
Reika: I see.
Saga: I wonder if my songs are manic. Yet record companies accept them (laugh).


No, no, but it's good that the industry accepts them.

Saga: It makes me happy, but if you asked me if "commercial music", I feel that it is not. I think if I were in a recording company, I'll be like "Hmmm."
Reika: It is a very difficult problem. Sometimes I think about it.
Saga: You know, to be honest, are not there times when you think it's boring to play in a band? Hahahaha.


You're being too honest (laughs). Reika : As expected of a free talk (laughter).

Saga: No, no (laughs). During the time when composing songs, focusing as primary songwriter, the band felt they had become really boring. Do not know why, but I often felt that way. And I thought, if that was the case, should be separated from the band. From that moment, somehow or other, I focused on writing and I went down that road?


During "VANDALIZE"?

Saga: Yep, yep. Precisely at that time. Nothing? That sort of thing.
Reika: Hmm ~ But now there is nothing.
Saga: Well, I guess it's because D = OUT appropriately says things that should be said and discussions progress.
Reika: Yes, our singer made it clear that if there a tune that does not want to sing, tell you not to sing. It's the same with me. If there are songs that do not want to play, I say clearly that I do not want to touch them and there are still many things I want to do. What about Alice Nine? Do not you have conflicts?
Saga: We have conflicts ... We tend to become fiery often (laugh).
Reika: Ah, I also burning fire back often (laugh). We are equal in that respect (laughter). But I think that's a good thing. I think having an atmosphere of conflict is not so good and the atmosphere is important to occasionally poignant. So when I feel this way, I burn on purpose.
Saga: I see. Do you come to rehearsals on time?
Reika: Yes, our singer is the athletic type, so it was always very strict with the delay from the start. In trials also, when someone arrives five minutes later, he says "You're 5 minutes late!" That and the prohibition of late took root from which we form.
Saga: Incredible!


Which member of Alice Nine always late?

Saga: Hmm? Alice Nine?? All (laughter). Nao-san probably be the one that is never late (laughter). Ah, no, we are hopeless (laughter). Compared to us, D = OUT is amazing, because we are very lax ~. I think you or Kouki-kun would be alarmed if they were in our band (laughs).
Reika: Ehh ~ I can not imagine. You are very mysterious (laughter).


Alice Nine seems to have that kind of image.

Saga: We always say that (laugh). But it really is not (laugh).
Reika: No, no, I go out drinking with the other members but although we get along, are still a mystery.
Saga: Really? But it is a gathering of people very, very direct (laugh).
Reika: Regarding Saga-san, if you do not know the football game "Winning Eleven", you can not have a conversation with him. Or something like that (laugh).
Saga: Hahahaha. That?!? No, no, no. I'm sure I can get along with all kinds of people (laugh). That image is scary (laughs). If it interests me, I'll go. Anyway, regarding meetings bearish, although invited me many times, never was (laugh). Reika: Let's go next time!
Saga: No. I do not know what you should speak. Also, I am retailer from the low (laugh).
Reika: Not really talk much on the low, you know (laugh). Sometimes it becomes a karaoke contest (laugh). Lately I also started going to meetings of the bands bass players are not visual kei. Those are interesting! Let us next time! Your circle of friends will be extended!
Saga: Ah ... Okay, but just because you are sociable.
Reika: No, no, I'm an introvert! Basically, I'm scared of strangers.
Saga: No way! Not likely!
Reika: I work hard (laugh). In such places, I borrow the power of alcohol and shout "Yay!" (Laugh). I think there are things in there that you can use (laughter). Saga: I see ... Still, I have the confidence to do it (laughter). I'm very, very introverted.


That is obvious to the eye (laugh).

Saga: I know ~ (laugh). Accidentally I mentioned it (laughter). Among the members of Alice Nine, Tora is more introverted.
Reika: Are you serious!? It's unlikely!


That's true. Tora seems sociable. Anyway, when you talk to him, you can not help but think "Ah, is introverted ..." (Laugh). Also of those who always stay at home.

Saga: SIP, SIP (laughter). Reika-kun is that change under the influence of alcohol (laugh). I also am. It says that I will become an American (laughter).
Reika: Hahahaha. Ah! Speaking of which, some time ago I heard a rumor about something that happened! I heard that during the closure of "JROCK EVOLUTION 2012", you get involved with one of the girls MAVERICK staff (the company under which are MUCC, girugamesh and UNITE) and said "Oi, you want to look after you, right? Come here ~ ". Then I heard that the staff of MAVERICK who was next to you saying "'Our company wants someone with the character of Saga-kun". I laughed a lot (laugh).
Saga: Ah, that's right. Still, I do not remember. My senpai gave me drink, I was drunk the whole time ... I hope I have done anything disrespectful ...


Today we have a sober version. Are we talking in a bar next time? Reika : Hahaha. That would be an amazing night!

Saga: Ah, no, I think the feeling would be different (laugh). Only things that could not have written (laugh).
Reika: Probably (laughs). But I've never gone to drink alone with Saga-san. Only drink from our seats in the closing parties. But, absolutely, 100% sparkling (laugh).


"Absolutely" (laugh).

Reika: SIP, SIP (laugh). But there gives the impression that it is very, very easy to talk to.
Saga: Ah, for me, all will be well if we have already spoken. Before the tour of "JROCK ~" YUKKE-san and MUCC SATOchi-san also told me the same thing when we talk. I said "It was sooo hard to start talking with you, but when we talked, you turned out to be the easiest person with whom to chat". So, go ahead (laugh).
Reika: Hahahaha. Well! I will from now on (laugh).
Saga: Somehow, even when I look in the mirror, think the same. I think "Ahh, that sad face, gloomy and hostile ~" (laugh).
Reika: Hahaha (laughter)
Saga: And then during "JROCK ~" as Haku-kun UNITE looked like me, I tried to talk to him without thought. I said, "Did you ever say you look 'hard' or 'melancholy'? 'And really do not you?" (Laugh).
Reika: Hahahaha (laugh). It was the first time that you talked and you asked him that (laugh).
Saga: SIP (laugh). But then I said, "Ah, yes. People tell me that. And I'm really melancholy". I said "Okay!", And from that moment we hit it.
Reika: Hahahaha. That must have been interesting!
Saga: You look like a person with whom it would be easy to get along. You seem to get along with high school students and also seem to talk about serious things. I think that's good.
Reika: Still I'm just being naughty!
Saga: Oh (laughing)!? But you really have an air erotic. For a long time I think about that.


Even you, the guys that feel about the same sex. It seems that the same thing happens to the girls.

Reika: Ah, I do not know (laughter). Do you feel that I'm sexy?
Saga: Yep, yep. I can even feel the pheromones.
Reika: Ah, I do not want to hear you say that! You are the one in charge of being sexy! I can not match you!
Saga: Nah, do not know when I became the one in charge of that, but not me (laugh). Still, it seems that I have an image of having a tendency to behave in a certain way (laugh).
Reika: Hahahaha. But that's because bears are generally perverts.
Saga: Yep, yep, that's right.
Reika: I feel like you're in the middle (laugh). I am a person who chose the lowest among all instruments. I think I really am a pervert. Have you ever wondered "why I chose that?"
Saga: Instead of saying "Yes they are perverts," I feel I can understand the bassists I've met so far. Probably many people say "Even take a step back, when you let it all out, do it properly". If mentioned football as an example, we could say that as the midfield player. As "A lot of people who say 'I will defend, but attack them.'"


Yep. They are basically the defensive. Anyway, when they attack, they do it properly.

Saga: Yep, yep. But usually strikes-kun Reika, like their sounds.
Reika: Yes, I go to the front line (laugh).


The guitar attack but low defense also has parts and also connected to tolerance.

Saga: I same. But as for our band, we always try to accommodate all our sounds too, so I think we should also evaluate that. I'm thinking it would be nice if we could change our way of playing with the respective parties we should let out, out, and the parts that should be removed, withdrawn.
Reika: I see. But Alice Nine has changed much. I think it's a great way to change. When I played in my previous band, apart from admiring THE YELLOW MONKEY-san and visual kei, and decided to make a visual kei band with D = OUT, I thought learning about this genre, and the first thing I knew was to Alice Nine. For me, Alice Nine was in the middle of the visual kei.
Saga: Seriously!? It was well?!?
Reika: Yes.
Saga: Mmm, at that time, not Alice Nine suddenly became a band. I think we became a band after a while. Even compared to our style, I think we looked like princes in the past. When he said nothing about it, so I kept making up (laugh), but really, I'm a prince. In addition, there were times when my image was completely different to what I was. The band had moments like that, and over time, we approached the style we want to have.
Reika: I see. This was a good talk. We should go out drinking the next time!
Saga: Yes.
Reika: You said you wanted to organize a meeting with the PSC bears, right? Well, let's do it!
Saga: Ah, I said it! I want to. Shall we? Next time! Well, we do that and we have a drink?
Reika: Yes! I'll call you!
Saga: Thanks. I look forward to!
Reika: Thank you for this day!
