[TeamAyu] Ayu Message 06.10.24 ~about new album

You don't do seven tracks in four weeks.

Ayu doesn't, anyway. It's stupid. She would have already have planned something beforehand, like truehappiness stated above.

[truehappiness]

I think that she might've been preparing songs just in case her plan could work [you know, ask avex to change the announcement.] so all she needs to do is record / have arrangers do their thing. :B

[Raleigh]

I hope this doesn't mean rushed up work... hopefully this album will have quality material.

[makie_7]

I also think she has some songs already written, maybe songs she worte this summer, but I don't think she just compose/write the songs she is gonna release.
It's a very good news too the full album!

[truehappiness]

Well, I don't think that it would make a difference if it was rushed or if she took 10 months on a song.. people will like what they like :p

For all we know, alterna could've been like the most rushed song on (m)u :3

While it sounds like a pretty cool message, I do agree on this. She can't have changed the plans just like that.

Cool news nevertheless.

[truehappiness]

Well, she probably has a load of songs as backup.. :B
I'm hoping for a MY STORY and a Secret.

It's possible but I guess I prefer when she takes more time on her songs

[[taskin.ayu]]

Hmm so 4 songs finished from singles, JEWEL and 1LOVE finished, and that 7th song finished. XD So that leaves 7 songs, but that could possibly mean 1-3 interludes. O_O I'm not expecting more than 2 really. x3

[truehappiness]

I'm expecting some tasuku interlude, some CMJK thing, and an intro by CREA :p

[ayu1m]

Awesome!! Thanks guys for the translation

Ayu!!

[SunshineSlayer]

I'm still hoping for the best, but this news is pretty disheartening. This redifines the term 'rushed album.'

Well tasuku and CREA would be nice

[truehappiness]

Well, whatever happens with the tracks will definitely be blamed by this decision.. I can see it now.

"Why did she rush? She should've just done a minialbum!" -- random complain from the future

I, of course, will savor my songs. <3

[of course, those 'composer' predictions just apply to interludes ;D I think she's gonna include some more Kazuhiro Hara in the actual album.. hopefully BOUNCEBACK bounces back to Ayu]

[SunshineSlayer]

Who is she referring to when she says KAZ? Kazuhiro Hara? If so, we can expect most, if not all of the new songs to be composed by him since she mentions him so heavily in that message.

[truehappiness]

KAZ = > Mr. Kaz => aka the 'head' of TeamAyu.

Kazuki "Mr. Kaz" Okabe, he is always in charge of the making-of video shots. He is the one holding the camera when we see making-of video at all. ;D


His name is on the left.


Here is Kaz handing Ayu her cake in the AT05 extra [you were there, right SunshineSlayer?]

[[taskin.ayu]]

Hmm I'm going to try not listen until I get it, but then again, that probably wont work. XD

[truehappiness]

It really won't.

I think many will be unable to resist :| It's been so long since we had an abundance of new material.

[immel]

Now people are going to "expect" this album to be rushed, and therefore listen to it in it's most minute detail, and as soon as one song doesn't agree completely with their ears...

...it will suddenly be rushed?

I think she's got enough material to work with to finish it, I don't think a delay is impossible, especially now that the oricon year has been moved.

[truehappiness]

Is there any actual evidence that the Oricon year was even moved at all? An actual announcement from Oricon?
