Quote:

Can you save data in different formats such as audio, video, still pictures and documents on a single SD card?
Yes, you can save data in different formats as long as the card has sufficient memory capacity. However, to play or transfer the data you will need equipment that is compatible with the appropriate data format such as SD-Audio, SD-Video and SD Document.
- .wav files on USB are to be approximately 278 times better quality than the ones on the CD, likely to be digital masters of the songs
- microSD+USB+DVD+photobook edition will be housed in a 3 fold LP-sized packaging like the following image but LP-sized instead of CD-sized.

crossroad - Masashi Muto
Virgin Road - Masashi Muto
Sweet Season - Luis Hernandez

Last angel - Masashi Muto
Love song - Masashi Muto

Dream ON - Masashi Muto

Masashi Muto was seen in Los Angeles via Luis Hernandez's Twitter directing PVs for tracks on Love songs. One seemed to involve the male model from Virgin Road with the other involving a plane crash and SWAT team. Perhaps they are one in the same? (See the photos at Luis' Twitpic: http://twitpic.com/photos/ishiiluis)

Some PV editing photos from Masashi Muto's plixi! Looks like they were working on Dream ON in the first one and the second one looks like Ayu around the plane crash site in whatever PV has the plane in it?

Refuse to listen to chaku-uta previews.

ohsixthirty 8th December 2010 06:06 AM

Good for you! I could never make it.

yuki_unmei 8th December 2010 06:14 AM

don't know if it's been said already, but all the album's chaku-uta's are out now.

[taskin.ayu] 8th December 2010 06:14 AM

Ughh Insomnia sounds amazing. XD

pepper 8th December 2010 06:14 AM

^ i did. And delete it. Cause i don't remember how they sounded. Good for me.

truehappiness 8th December 2010 06:14 AM

I wonder how people who aren't listening to any previews are holding out!

Hopefully they aren't disappointed.

LOL AYU'S SITE. LOL.

Aria is an interlude.

pepper 8th December 2010 06:16 AM

^ i am to weak for that it seems T_T but I didnt went with "OMG WTCRHAPISTHAT" so i dont even remember. I remember only that THANK U sounded not that bad as I was thinking it will be. But sending mail was boring.

curious as to which other ones are interludes. hope someone can fill us in soon.

chocopockymaster 8th December 2010 06:16 AM

I did the whole I-will-not-listen-to-any-previews thing with RnRC and it was interesting, because the first time I heard slt, Microphone, Last Links, count down, etc was actually at AT2010.

But...I don't think I'll do it this time. XD Too much stress in my life = not enough self discipline.

pepper 8th December 2010 06:19 AM

I will not listen to more previews (the lq ones) but im so curious what people will say and HOW MANY INTERLUDES THERE WILL BE.

Just thinking...if there was any c-uta with interlude before? Cause I can't hardly remember that o_o

They all just came out. Like 10 minutes ago.

Omfg way to get my hopes up for the other chaku-utas!!!!

Melodie 8th December 2010 06:20 AM

I'm curious, that's all. I was more excited about RnRC.

Could Love songs be another (m)u? Hopefully!

pepper 8th December 2010 06:20 AM

I will not download more, no, no, no, no, no, no... I was off to TV but Im gonna wait for some opinions then ^^

What?!?!?!? Where????

truehappiness 8th December 2010 06:24 AM

On Recochoku and mu-mo.

Aria is confirmed to be an interlude. overture has yet to be mentioned on 2ch.

do it again has a nice verse and kind of sounds like it could be on NEXT LEVEL? Not sure if that's what this person said~

Quote:

do it again Aメロはいい感じなのにサビが微妙ね
何かアルバム曲全部サビ弱いし解りにくいわ

着うたで聴いた今の時点では今回微妙だわ
NEXT LEVELでもこんな言われなかったわよね?

RyRyMini 8th December 2010 06:24 AM

I listened to the previews but they were so LQ that I can't really make a judgment..

My Rainbow 8th December 2010 06:24 AM

if Aria is an interlude, please tell me if overture is a full song or not...
:no

yuki_unmei 8th December 2010 06:24 AM

Insomnia, Aria, and overture are interludes

Pieces_of_SEVEN 8th December 2010 06:25 AM

ugh great.
I don't mind that aria is...I don't care for the title.
Come on overture, please be a full song. lol I doubt it though

yeah. so 3 interludes this time. disappointed but better than 4 which she could have done.

My Rainbow 8th December 2010 06:27 AM

getting freaking tired of the abuse of interludes she's doing lately... at least on them could be an intro like Catcher In The Light or something...

VERY PISSED!!
:irked

Hopefully the songs will make up for it! anyways, i'm very mad :grumpy

-------------------------

Thanks for the info! :)

pepper 8th December 2010 06:27 AM

^ too bad one is not an opening :[ I love them all. Maybe except RnRC one, but the rest was great.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYY????!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eh? I thought NEXT LEVEL and Rock'n'Roll Circus' interludes helped with cohesion. GUILTY's sort of messed with everything.

when I listen to NEXT LEVER and RNR CIRCUS I feel that the interludes are just fillers, to make a 12 song album look 16 track one... specially NEXT LEVEL. I guess there's always different opinions.

I can't waut to hear the new tracks! And I hope the interludes are worth it! I wanna feel the same way I do when I listen to Kaleidoscope or Are You Wake Up? or Wonderland...:)

truehappiness 8th December 2010 06:36 AM

Yeah, shocked me at first. I guess they can do that too.

pepper 8th December 2010 06:38 AM

For me, 'taskin' interludes was FIERCE (especially [m]u and Secret ones. The Secret one is my favorite). And 'Are you wake up'. Edgy, rocky, epic. They reminds me always of an starting of a epic battle in a movie or sth. And the "vocal" interludes she always had amazing.

sandwitched songs, fish lips... *3*

I'm kind of irritated that this one BBS stopped letting people access without a password. They were usually really quick about posting what songs were like! -sigh-

if anyone complains about three interludes, prepare for my wrath.

I DONT WANT THREE INTERLUDES THIS ALBUM SUCKS


lol...well, I will say, that I don't really care for them being all around the middle...I like intros, and then 2 interludes through out...or less...or more IF the album is like 17+ tracks lol

yuki_unmei 8th December 2010 06:59 AM

I would love that! I wish Like a doll would be something like until that Day... because I'm addicted to that song atm and it'd be awesome to have something similar. :P

Someone updated the site to announce the chaku uta, but instead of being her 12th album, they updated it as her 51st single.

Picaflor 7/4 8th December 2010 07:45 AM

^for a moment i was like, what? a recut single? and it's the title track too. haven't had that since secret. lol

yuki_unmei 8th December 2010 07:54 AM

November: a ballad. like an "answer song" to Endless sorrow.

Do it Again: seems like it's something between being a dance song, and RED LINE.

Ayumiko 8th December 2010 07:56 AM

^endless sorrow?!! OMG...

probably just the lyrics are similar. I wouldn't expect something as epic as Endless Sorrow lol
really curious about "do it again"

truehappiness 8th December 2010 08:10 AM

I think it's because she "no longer just has one wing" or something.

Another song for the fans? LOVE!

yuki_unmei 8th December 2010 08:18 AM

Yeah i think the reference was just lyrics-wise.

Sending mail is not my cup of tea, sounds so weird. The chorus of Thank U sounds like one of the song from ghibli studio :rolleyes

HOLY CRAP!! All of them honestly sound awesome!! and there are a few that sound REALLY differen't for Ayu. I'm so looking forward to the full songs:thud

love in music 8th December 2010 08:43 AM

YES hq previews!!

sending mail is SOOOOO different than the lq chaku uta preview. now it reminds me of Mirrorcle World! loving it!

Like a doll is like no other song she has ever released.. it sounds so cool and different

do it again sounds ballad-y.. but I think this is the intro and it'll build into an upbeat song. if not that'd be weird.

Thank U sounds so beautiful and peaceful.

November sounds so emotional and beautiful :(

the interludes sound pretty great too, I love how overture is sounding so far the most. so much more excited for this album now!!

tokyoxjapanxfan 8th December 2010 08:43 AM

overture is like... really, really similar to the music played during the clown part at the beginning of RnRC Tour... haha

do it again... not what I was expecting, lyrics wise... haha. I didn't think it'd be so repetitive.

November sounds really great :D

Like a doll sounds cool too! But I'm not sure about the English lyrics... haha.

Can't wait to go home and listen to the melodies :D Those are my favorite parts :3

tobytang 8th December 2010 08:44 AM

is 16 really live in yoyogi??its more like a recording

pepper 8th December 2010 08:44 AM

SO!


sending mail
dont like the fact that it reminds me of Dragon Ball/name random Anime song. But it could be a gooood song!

Like a doll
Melody reminds me of one older Ayu song. I feel this too slow (same feeling as Don't look back - even she's repeating Like a doll~ in a song) Messy feelings.

Thank U
IT REMINDS ME OF ONE SONG TOO AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT! I think I might like this cute song. Got that cute vibe, i like in Ayu~

do it again
THAT WAS UNEXPECTED O________O Too bad preview cuts in the BEST PART -.- It's making faster and then cut, pfffffff.

November
I think im gonna love this. I dont feel this as ballad anywas.. If someone asking, it's nothing like Endless Sorrow. THE MUSIC O_O GOOSEBUMPS! LIKE A FREAKING GOTHIC FAIRYTALE. damn. IM SO EXCITED

My Rainbow 8th December 2010 08:45 AM

Aria is AMAZING!!! Should have been a FULL SONG! :(

I love it!

do it again sounds... SO COOL!!!!

pepper 8th December 2010 08:48 AM

Oh,the interludes. They suck. Oh well, very strong opinion. But! They are pretty/ok. But they are amazingly forgetable for me. Like WONDERLAND/Kalei/LAB/montage etc. So that's why they suck, cause I LOVE guitar/electro fast Ayu interludes.

do it again 8th December 2010 08:48 AM

I guess Ayu was tweeting the lyrics after all!!!

ayu_19980408 ayumi hamasaki
Sing sing sing do it again♪RT @m42sz: i miss u too!!! i cant wait for your new album♪ how are CDL rehearsals?? Dance Dance do it again!!!

so much more excited for the album.. can't wait for the full songs!

Pieces_of_SEVEN 8th December 2010 08:48 AM

OH MY ****ING GOD. I LOVE THEM ALL.
Aria sounds perfect as an interlude!

Thank U is like HONEY part II OMFGGGGG I'm having a seizure

Aderianu 8th December 2010 08:49 AM

I upload all previews

http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=105914

pepper 8th December 2010 08:49 AM

The more i listen to Like a doll, i feel the creepy vibe. I MIGHT LOVE THIS

GOOOOD THIS ALBUM IS AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGG

Pieces_of_SEVEN 8th December 2010 08:51 AM

OK wait
from the previews
it seems like do it again and Thank U could also be interludes... seriously.

great 5 interludes for the album

pepper 8th December 2010 08:53 AM

^ do it again have a PV (: so, no.

But THANK U yep, in THIS preview sounds like a interlude. BUT! in chaaku-uta preview, there is a normal lyrical vocal. So dont worry ;)

you never know though, one of the interludes could start off a certain way but end a different way.. one example is the Pieces of SEVEN interlude

pepper 8th December 2010 08:55 AM

^ i will pray for that!

njanjayrp 8th December 2010 08:55 AM

All the previews sound really interesting. Aria sounds a bit like an old sweetbox song xD the way it's arranged (even though it's an interlude). sending mail does remind me of MW just a bit, but it's not really rockish, mainly the beats. Like a doll sounds cool and Thank U as well (my fave previews). overture is beautiful. Now I have a problem with do it again mostly because of the English in it >_> and November doesn't sound that special compared to the other tracks, still it's just a preview ^_^ I dunno what will November and do it again turn out to be as the previews don't tell us much, but the album lacks rock songs and the arrangements really remind me of the way GEO arranged some of sweetbox songs in the past. So yeah the only thing I am bothered with is that taking MOON, blossom and maybe Love song out of the picture, the album virtually has no rock influences.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 8th December 2010 08:56 AM

So Thank U does have lyrics, great.
I wonder about the length of do it again. I mean seriously the entire preview is her saying the same thing. lol I think my favorite previews are November and aria

you might be right in Aria. It ends at very dramatic moment.

I KNOW I KNOW.. JUST A SEC! THANK U reminds me of one interlude. AND IT'SSSSSSSSSS.... everlasting dream!

Pieces_of_SEVEN 8th December 2010 08:58 AM

^^The only thing that Thank U reminds me of is HONEY, which I LOVE ... but this song better be long and have awesome lyrics lol

Cherry Dynamite 8th December 2010 09:00 AM

OHMYGOD THE PREVIEWS. I love the interludes and they all sound interesting.

pepper 8th December 2010 09:00 AM

When I'm listening TO ALL in row, Sweet Season is the one song that JUST DONT match the rest. I even started to like it.. But it doesnt match.
