Honey Skoolmates - Your Aquarium mini-album, １９９９年 Yuko Takemoto: Vo & Keyboard Keita Takatori: G & Cho Atsushi Nakai: Dr & Cho Shozo Hashimoto: B Art Direction, Photographer: Kohei Yamashita

The cover of Your Aquarium by Honey Skoolmates, depicting various sea shells and pebbles and decorated with red, orange, and yellow stars.

The disc for Your Aquarium by Honey Skoolmates. Breaking away from the classic disc shape, it is red and shaped like a star.

初めてハニスクを聴いたのは「ミニ・スカート」の頃。仕事がら時々デモテープをもらったりするんだけど、そのデモテはとにかく曲が一杯入っているなって印象でした。でも聴いてみてびっくり。どれも良い曲ばかりだったのです。っていうか、若いのに曲作りのツボを良くわかってるなって感じかな。それでボーカルの竹元さんと仲良くなったので、その後も新曲ができるたび、デモを送ってもらっていました。だからハニスクに関してはかなり詳しい（？）ですよ。ライブは1回しか観てないけどね。それにここ2年間の竹元さんの心の紆余曲折も少しは知っている。悩みだったり、野望だったり連れのグラスゴーでライブができたハッピーだったり。故にこのCDはホント感無量です。内容もめちゃくちゃ良いです。ハニスク、よくここまで成長したなぁって感じ。だってデモを沢山聴いたせいか竹元さんのソロ・ブロジェクトってイメージが僕には強くあった。でもこれを聴くとバンドとしてのまとまりもすごくいいし、何より男の子ポーカルとの絡みが最高！！やっぱりヴァセリンズとかプリミティブズとかグルービー・リトル・ナンバーズとか読いてきた僕にとっては男女のツイン・ポーカルはめちゃめちゃシビれてしまうんです。それにしても竹元さん、歌すごく良くなったね。英語でも日本語でもどっちでもイケてるよ。それにハニスクまだまだいけるね。これは通過点だ。でっかくなってね。きっとなれるから。

the guitars of shiina ringo... 🍎 via 椎名林檎無罪モラトリアム photo and score book

shiina ringo's black rickenbacker 620 and blue nagare. "the rickenbacker was mentioned in the lyrics of marunouchi sadistic; i purchased the guitar after writing the song. however, i did not buy it in ochanomizu, but instead made the purchase in ōkubo. the stickers were purchased at a duty-free shop and adhered with stick glue. the nagare was recommended by the staff at shimamura instruments, and was formerly known as the jazz master, but is no longer so, which is inevitable (lol) it comes with a lot of unnecessary bits, which i like. it makes noise when you turn the key and has a strobe light. when the light goes off, it makes a sound like radiohead. they said if i have any ideas, they will try to make them happen. the guitarmaker mr. nishikawa wants to make one that can hold tropical fish (lol) that uses the fish's movements to apply distortion and rewards them with food if the performance is good..."
