DCT on Bokura no Ongaku

I just discovered that DCT performed on Bokura no Ongaku:

Yay!

I also know they will (did?) perform on Music Fair but I don't think the show is going to be uploaded to JPOP Suki. Hopefully I'll grab it on WinMX...

I saw that today. They had performed Kessen wa Kinyoubi, Nandodemo, and Memai. All in three different places. The place where Memai was performed at I liked a lot. A nice looking area.

I just watched the show. There is a terrific interview with Miwa and Masa!

They performed the full version of Memai, what a powerful song. Gotta LOOOOOVE those long notes! Kessen wa Kinyoubi was terrific as usual so was Nando Demo. Great performances, the arrangement for the songs was very nice. All the gang was there, Rin, that MC guy, those two dancers...

The MC guy is the same guy who at the end of "go for it" sez :'Hey honey let's watch Monty Python' etc?

Seems like they're trying to go for more of a TK sound, with a stronger male voice underneath Miwa's.

Heh, nah....that was Mike Pela ^^
(Wonder what happened to him...)

Put 'Mike Pela ' into your search engine and you'll see he's still quite busy as a producer and engineer on a variety of projects. I was sorry to see him go when DCT switched labels, especially considering the outcome of the label switch (only one U.S. release allowed). As part of the DCT 'family' on the early and middle period albums, he helped give that music a certain feel which I like very much. He also was open to doing whatever was necessary to support Miwa and Masa's ideas- instrumentals, backing vocals, voiceovers. I know that's what a good producer is supposed to be able to contribute to an album, but everything just seemed to work very well with him on board. Perhaps I don't feel that 'warmth' on the newer albums (although I enjoy them very much). Again, that 'family' atmosphere the music lost when the band broke with Sony.

On this week's Bokura no Ongaku, DCT made a collaboration with BoA. From the screen shots I was able to figure that Miwa and BoA sang Love Love Love. I'm still downloading the file:

I will post more details later.

It was an AMAZING performance. I agree with Miwa "kanpeki" alright! I'm not a big BoA fan but she has a nice voice. Both of them nailed the song, it was a perfect!

I have seen Miwa performing Love Love Love with ELT on CDTV and also with Aiko in a concert but this duet with BoA was by far the best. I wish Misia would sing Love x3 with Miwa sometime...

[tachikaze]

yes, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of BoA's rendition, her tremulo or whatever added a dimension to the sound that Miwa actually lacks.

I also liked the HD-quality cap. I could toss my TV if I get more of this.

I'm actually peering this torrent right now, serving 40KB/s

[Jei]

They did blend quite well together...and I have to say that after a second week of watching the show that I LOVE the show's choices for performance set selection...all about mood, baby

Also great to see so many young singers looking up towards Miwa & DCT...

[Celes]

It's a shame that Love love love isn't a song where they could show the best of their voices. However, BoA did well. It's good to know that BoA is a fan of them!

I wish Misia would sing Love x3 with Miwa sometime...

That would be great, but it'd have to be in a concert.... Like when they sang I miss you in a Misia concert...
