Beat in love MV
ay_link August 14th, 2008
CLAZZIQUAI’s new MV “Beat in Love” for the Japanese release “Beat in Love” album has been out for a sometime now. But since yesterday was the official date for the album release, I thought I’d post it here to bookmark the date. This ‘Beat in Love’ music isn’t really my cup of tea, but since it’s well-known how Clazziquai’s style can go, I guess it does fit their style~
The music is catchy. It is upbeat. It’s refreshing, but at the same time it can be annoying too lol. I mean I adore Clazziquai as a group, but sometimes their music style just doesn’t “flow” with me well.
Nonetheless, can’t wait to hear “Electronics”, their newest single in which they performed at the ETP FESTIVAL 2008 yesterday. Been searching for the clip at daum but no luck yet.

Clazziquai’s long-awaited reunion at Seotaiji’s ETP FESTIVAL 2008
This upcoming Thursday, August 14, Clazziquai will finally make a comeback together as a group. The festival this year will be held in the outdoor park of Seoul’s Jamsil Baseball Stadium at 8 PM. For this very special concert, Clazziquai (DJ Clazzi, Horan and Alex) have prepared four additional songs prior to the concert to surprise their fans.
Last December, Clazziquai’s 3.5 album, and plus after eight months of vacancy (plus solo activities from Alex and Horan), the group will reunite at the ETP FESTIVAL 2008. Horan with her Ibadi acoustic group, and Alex is busy with his wife (lol, sorry, can’t help it), I mean, MBC variety show “We Got Married”, hosting Mnet Countdown with Chae Yeon and also hosting his own radio show, FM4U Blue Night. Clazziquai’s digital single “Beat in love” (Japanese release) is reported to dominate the Japanese music charts even before the full album is released.
ETP Festival 2008 artists line-up are as follows: SeoTaiJi, MARILYN MANSON, The Used, Dragon Ash, MONKEY MAJIK, Shinichi Osawa(Mondo Grosso), CLAZZIQUAI PROJECT, Death Cab for Cutie, Maximum the Hormone, Epik High, DAISHI DANCE, YAMAARASHI, and many more.
(Wow. Great festival ahead of us! How I wish I can be in Korea right now. Hopefully there’ll be some TV coverage somehow for this event so we all can see their performance…..)

Alex-Horan, together separate
ay_link August 11th, 2008
Clazziquai’s Alex & Horan to host separate performances
As we all know, these two lead vocals have recently led their own ’separate lives’ away from their beloved Electronica/jazzy/groove group, Clazziquai. With Alex’s first album “My Vintage Romance”, Horan also has her own separate group outside Clazziquai with her cool musician buddies, she made her own acoustic group, Ibadi.
(But no, they are NOT separated as Clazziquai, and I’m 100% sure they’re still fully committed to this group. I’m taking this separate activities as they wanna do their own thing to try out different stuffs during the Summer. And it ain’t got nothing wrong ’bout it. :D Have u listened to Ibadi btw? It definitely loaded with great stuff in there. Check it out~)
While Alex will be having his very own solo concert, titled as “My Favorite Songs” next month (Sept 6-7), Horan and her Ibadi will also host their own gig next month to promote and introduce their music.
Ibadi’s first concert will be on Sept 19-20 at the Yang Il Gan Baekam Art Hall in Seoul. Their record label and management, Fluxus music plans to arrange this concert to be as comfortable as the Ibadi’s style. Horan will perform live with her distinctive vocal combined with Ibadi’s unique musical approach to live acoustic.

[DL LINK]
Personal favorites:
Track 2, 4, 5, 7 and 8
I just have the urgency to post this album up since it’s a bit ‘underrated’ since it’s a mini album *grins* and it’s hard to find somehow. “Love Mode” featuring VERBAL from M-FLO is a personal recommendation since I’ve been admiring M-Flo for a few years now. (They so darn talented! You can check out their personal projects with Japanese artists like Crystal Kay, Melody, Yoshika, etc. Too many to list here. So maybe I’ll talk more about M-flo in another post.)
For those who have never heard of Clazziquai Project yet, you don’t know what you’re missing. LOL.
Having said this, I’ll post more Clazziquai project albums as we go. If there’s a personal request, let me know which album to upload first and I’ll be glad to. (This is for sampling only, especially if you never heard of Clazziquai Project before. )
And as always, for artists like Clazziquai Project, Brown Eyes, Fly to the sky, I really have to say this:
“Support the artist, support the music industry, buy the original album!”
Peace!
