[Translation] Nobita talks about 『Love songs』 production

[Chibi-Chan]

Thank you!!!!! That was very interesting!^^

[TITANIC]

interesting. Thank U is my favorite track too

[AyumiAi]

oh wow this is so interesting and fun to read!
what does an arranger do exactly? because he's not the composer so he doesnt come up with the songs

[yamadashun]

Digressing a little, I ordered the acoustic guitar player, Mr Eric, to play his track, while keeping an image of AYU-san singing and strumming the guitar herself in mind. This was to create an image of a singer playing her own accompaniment.

OMG this is what i think of the first time i listen to Love song, ayu playing the guitar herself while singing the song!

He takes the composition and arranges the song.

The word arrange means he chooses what instruments will go where [guitar, drums, strings, etc.] and directs the musicians to create the sound he wants.

After he arranges it, everything's sent to the mixer to mix vocals with the background track. (Usually Koji Morimoto. It was David Reitzas for a handful of Love songs tracks though)

[Yukitora]

I think arranger is the equivalent to "producer", the term they use in the US. Almost like "beat-maker".

That takes major talent. Ayu has some of the best arrangers anyway though.

[AyumiAi]

[Surreal17]

very interesting..I like the fact that Ayu decided to turn sending mail into a rock track.I love this song,it has grown a lot in me these days.Its lyrics resonate very well with the instrumental.

[Ashen Twilight]

Thank Ayu for making them put real drums in sending mail. If only the same thing happened to Like a doll.
