The Casiopeia Thread....
« on: July 31, 2007, 08:18:18 PM »
I Admit...I'm slowly becoming a fusion addict...First was the Elektric band, next was Greg Howe..now comes Casiopeia.....I have Anton (psychic_sushi) and Jason(jazhombie)  to blame.

Share naman kayo ng listening trips and fave songs and albums nyo about Casiopeia. I wanna know everything about this powerhouse band. Nsa exploration stage ako ngaun. Did it influence your playing?

I really love hearing the 1986 live version of Galactic Funk...groovylicious... my first experience with listening to Casiopeia...forumites..share naman kau...

i've always perceived the drummer and the bassist to be machinelike and technical, but thats just me. huwag magagalit ha....

my favorite is "looking up" great melody in the middle.

then in their last concert video, i love this instrumental they did, wherein they could "stutter" like a skipping record with great precision...

I have with me an unidentified casette from Gapo, which i presume would be from Casiopeia dahil sa style, but i have to confirm. Yung side A studio Version, 'yung side B, live version nung tracks from Side A.

Sa mga familiar sa group, me Track ba o album ang Casiopeia na 'Space Roads?'  :?

Mayroon akong gusto na Casiopea instrumental yung ginagamit na background ni Benjie Castro(DZSR Sports Radio 918 AM) sa newsbreak nya. Di ko lang alam title nuon. Matindi guitar riff.. Hahanapin ko baka meron ako tape.. Pre madami maganda compositions ang Casiopea, puro instrumental nga lang.. kasi di sila pwede kumanta ng English pero meron sila live video sa Japan yung Casiopea  Perfect Live na nirecord pa nung 80s available noon sa Japan in laser disc pa na may side 1 & 2. May vocalist sila doon na Okinawan na nakakanta ng English. You Can Change It ang title, yun lang ang alam ko na song ng Casiopea na may lyrics..
  Dun naman sa mga instrumental, hahanapin ko muna sa aparador..he-he nakatago kasi.. di ko na matandaan mga title. Ang alam ko na common na tinutugtog ng mga local pinoy bands ay yung Asayake & Coast To Coast.. Hahanapin ko list ng mga titles ha..
  Nga pala, tanong ko lang noon pa kung bakit hindi yata sila nai-promote dito sa atin ng kung sino man ang record company ng Casiopea. Kasi since 80s, nagtu-tour na sa Asia, Southeast Asia & other continents ang Casiopea at wala akong matandaan na nakapagperform na sa Pilipinas ang Casiopea.. bakit kaya? Many times na nakapag-concert ang Casiopea sa Hongkong, Singapore, Thailand, etc.. bakit kaya kahit kailan ay di sila nagawi dito? Alam ba ninyo na naging nominee sa Grammy Awards ang Casiopea, di ko lang matandaan kung anong year yun..

Asayake

pansin ko lang, bakit laging umaasim ang mukha ni Minoru Mukaiya pag feel na feel na niya yung kanta...

Mismo, na alala ko tuloy yung ad ni Orly Mercado sa Pepsodent. :-D

Going back to Casiopeia.

Confirmed, It's the band's material that I grew up with. Thanks bro (hatfield110).

Tears of a Star, Space Roads, Time Limit, The Black Joke - Issei Noro can indeed tame that neck humbucker, and though early phases show Tetsuo overplaying a bit (over slapping?), it is one tight band with great material.

Ako hindi yun ang una kong napansin sa kanya... Yung pag-asim ng mukha niya ang una kong napansin sa kanya (dun sa youtube video ng Domino Line, yun ang una kong napanood na video nila... Dun sa adlib niya...)

I got hooked to it when my Sensei gave me a concert video set of them. I love Tetsuo's playing. My drummer loves the band because he grew up listening to it despite me being almost 9 years his senior. It made me realize again that age doesn't always go with knowledge.

We already covered Asayake from their Platinum album. I love their songs like "Looking Up", "Space Road", "Maline (?) Blue", (Eh yun kasi ang nakasulat sa vid e.) "Dazzling" and many more. I think the last song I mentioned is a really a good track for a female group almost as it they wrote the song with women in mind.

kala ko wala na to..natabunan na....

because of Casiopea, i also discovered some artists having the same genre,  considering their playing styles are basically within the same context, natuwa lng ako sa mga approaches nila sa kanta.

Dimension-keys player nila ung sessionist ni Greg howe sa Gentle hearts tour

T-Square

Jimsaku- breakaway band ng drummer na si Akira

at marami pang iba....

one thing i knew  di ako magsasawa sa kakapakinig ..love these bands and of course the thread title.

I was watching the Casiopea vs T Square Showdown  with Asayake, MId Manhattan and another song w/c I forgot the title...

Grabe sa Mid-manhattan , ung batuhan ni Akira Jimbo and T Square's drummer, ibang klase , groovewise, nota por nota di sablay kahit saan.
