Alice Nine Crowdfunding Project (March 1 - 31)

Admin7:09 AMAlice Nine No comments

Alice Nine has just recently released a new music video and announced a new album, but even more, in conjunction with their rebirth they also started a new (worldwide) crowdfunding campaign called "A9 Fund Project". Of course, with crowdfunding projects comes rewards as well, help out the band while receiving something awesome back!

The goal of this crowdfunding project is to create great music for the people and not rely on "fans to buy several copies of a same workpiece" or music charts for exposure, which is essentially just a marketing tactic to gain popularity these days, this is especially true in Japan.

"Rewinding the past from the celebration of 10th anniversary of our band, we are questioning today’s formalized pattern of recommending fans to buy several copies of a same workpiece for the ranking on music charts, which goes too far from the essence of being an artist, as it should be delivering good music to the public.

What's the most important thing for bringing good music to people? What's the reason of being indie artist and starting this project? Aren't there any ways to repay those who have always been supporting us? And we get only one answer, "Crowd Funding", from our gropes.

To redefine the relationship of artists and the listeners who support them, we start our new challenge from knowing nothing as our first step to be what we want to be.

Although a small beam of light seems to be dim, but when gathering together it becomes bright light.

Would you please give us a hand?

From A9 members

Make sure to show your support before March 31, which is when the crowdfunding project ends!

ALICE NINE NEW MV "PHOENIX" AND ALBUM ANNOUNCEMENT

Admin6:40 AMAlice Nine No comments

The rock band Alice Nine decided to departed from their former record label "PS Company" back in August 2014 to fully adopt themselves into "Univeral Japan". During that time all we have been seeing is a few teasers and many exciting words from the members on (their new) twitter and instagram, that is until today!

Just a few hours ago a new song "Phoenix" was released to the public to celebrate the rebirth (hence the name "Phoenix") of Alice Nine, or now referred to as "A9"! It doesn't just stop there, the band also announced an upcoming mini-album titled "Gingan no
Oto" that will be released somewhere in August.

What's interesting in this new music video is that vocalist Shou wears a mask throughout the entire video, a concept we have not seen before. You would also think that their music style might have changed from all these events that recently occurred? Subjectively judging, I didn't quite sense any difference between the reborned A9 and Alice Nine (obviously they still sound really good!), even though Shou himself said that this was a chance to grow and to go "back to the basics".

Although, what I think he really referred to is most likely how fans interacts with the artist in the modern society, where buying "several copies of a same workpiece for the ranking on music charts" is going too far. That is why the band also announced a new crowdfunding project!
