Our emcees for the day introduced the first performers from the “Singapore Indian Fine Arts Society.” The instru- ments being played in the perfor- mance were the Sitar, Violin, Tabla and the Mridangam.

By Eliana Lim (1E) BUZZ? Famously recognised better as Finn Hudson from Glee, Cory Monteith passed away from a “mixed toxicity of heroin and alcohol”. He passed away on 13 July at around noon, at the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel in Vancouver. His girlfriend, Lea Michele who plays Rachel Berry in Glee, has been mourn- ing and grieving alongside his family and friends. Yes! They were dating out of the show, resembling their counterparts! Lea and Cory were engaged and were supposed to tie the knot in two weeks, but then disaster struck. His most fa- mous performances were “Don’t Stop Believing”, “Just the Way You Are”, “Man in the Mirror” and “Losing My Religion”. It was a sad day for all the ‘Gleeks’ and he will definitely be dearly missed! “I think it’s important to be responsible for your actions because you will hurt more than yourself, especially those around you, and don’t waste your life.” -Eliana During their ‘Take Me Home’ tour in Illinois, when One Direction finished the song entitled ‘Teenage Dirtbag’, Harry was wiping perspiration off his forehead with a towel but accidentally went too close to the pyrotechnic decorations. Unfortunately, his towel caught fire, sending his globally famous chocolate curls into flames! Lucki- ly, Zayn came to his rescue and assisted his friend in extinguishing the fire before the fiery backdrop engulfed his hair. After that, they played their cool and pretended nothing had happened. “I think that presence of mind is so important.” - Eliana Selena Gomez admitted to Ryan Seacrest that her song “Way Stressed Out” is about her and Justin Bieber’s breakup. Selena usually keeps mum about her relationships, but she shared her feelings with the American Idol host, saying that she was deeply stressed by her breakup. Most “Selenators” and “Beliebers” who supported their relation- ship, christened them “Jelena”, are now broken up on their breakup. We do hope things work out between the two! “Everyone goes through breakups but just don’t do any- thing stupid.” - Eliana JAPANESE STAR OF THE MONTH A popular Japanese pop (Jpop) idol came to Singapore for her sold out “100% KPP World Tour” concert at SCAPE Warehouse on 10 May 2013. Her name is Kiriko Take- mura, born on 29th January 1993, best known as Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. Her first single, "PonPonPon", went viral, scoring over fifty million views on YouTube. Her signature song, "PonPonPon", reached Japan's top ten charts, and had huge success around the world. Her debut studio album “Pamyu Pamyu Revolution” was released on May 23 2013 featuring songs like “Tsukematsukeru”, “Candy Candy” and the most popular song, “Pon Pon Pon”. She continued to release singles like "Ninjya Re Bang Bang" and "Invader Invader". In June 26 2013, she released her second album “Nanda Collec- tion” with songs such as “Kimi Ni 100 Percent”, “Furisodeshon” and “Fashion Monster”. By Samantha Gomes (2A) WHAT’S UP rooney?

  • Liner Notes: Aesthetics of Capitalism and Resistance in Contemporary
    LINER NOTES: AESTHETICS OF CAPITALISM AND RESISTANCE IN CONTEMPORARY JAPANESE MUSIC A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Jillian Marshall December 2018 © 2018, Jillian Marshall LINER NOTES: AESTHETICS OF CAPITALISM AND RESISTANCE IN CONTEMPORARY JAPANESE MUSIC Jillian Marshall, Ph.D. Cornell University 2018 This dissertation hypothesizes that capitalism can be understood as an aesthetic through an examination and comparison of three music life worlds in contemporary Japan: traditional, popular, and underground. Through ethnographic fieldwork-based immersion in each musical world for nearly four years, the research presented here concludes that capitalism’s alienating aesthetic is naturally counteracted by aesthetics of community-based resistance, which blur and re-organize the generic boundaries typically associated with these three musics. By conceptualizing capitalism -- and socio-economics on whole – as an aesthetic, this dissertation ultimately claims an activist stance, showing by way of these rather dramatic case studies the self-destructive nature of capitalistic enterprise, and its effects on musical styles and performance, as well as community and identity in Japan and beyond. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Prior to undertaking doctoral studies in Musicology at Cornell in 2011, Jillian Marshall studied East Asian Languages and Civilizations at the University of Chicago, where she graduated with double honors. Jillian has also studied with other institutions, notably Princeton University through the Princeton in Beijing Program (PiB, 2007), and Columbia University through the Kyoto Consortium of Japanese Studies at Doshisha University (KCJS, 2012). Her interest in the music of Japan was piqued during her initial two-year tenure in the country, when she worked as a middle school English teacher in a rural fishing village.

  • University of Nevada, Reno Partying with Hello Kitty: How Electronic Dance Music and Rave Culture Are Transforming, Commercializ
    University of Nevada, Reno Partying with Hello Kitty: How Electronic Dance Music and Rave Culture are transforming, commercializing, and globalizing youth culture in the twenty-first century A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History By Geoff Scott Dr. Hugh Shapiro/Thesis Advisor May 2014 i Abstract This thesis will demonstrate how electronic dance music (EDM) has evolved from the musical underground during the second half of the twentieth century into the mainstream, commercial powerhouse it is now in the early twenty-first-century world. EDM at its core is a musical style characterized by the use of synthetic, electronic sounds. The combination of technological devices such as drum machines, repetitive bass lines, electronic builds and releases and inorganic noises in tandem with instrumental and vocal samples makes EDM an incredibly malleable style of dance music that has branched into a variety of forms over the course of its less than fifty year existence. Innovations in technology, like the tape reel, the Moog synthesizer, the vinyl mixer and the computer have led to new ways of contemplating and creating music. I argue that the innovative musical voices of late modernism and early postmodernism set the foundation for early EDM, who were not afraid to harness the new synthetic sounds at their disposal. Electronic dance music can trace its roots back to the repetitive, minimalist structures used since the 1960’s by postmodern composers such as Philip Glass and the electronic instrumentation of artists like Terry Riley and John Cage. Owing to its flexibility, EDM has also been re-contextualized in different cultures.

  • Kyary Pamyu Pamyu
    Interview – Kyary Pamyu Pamyu Originally published in Tone Deaf Magazine, 2016 [Lewis]: Hi Kyary. It’s great for us that you’re coming back to tour Australia again. Was there anything you missed on your last visit that you wanted to see? [Kyary]: Last time I was able to visit the zoo and the aquarium, so it was such a fulfilling trip. I enjoyed it very much. At the zoo, I was looking forward to seeing koalas but they were sleeping, so hopefully this time I can cuddle them. [Lewis]: In the last five years, I think you and just a few other Japanese artists such as Perfume and Yasutaka Nakata have changed pop music forever, not just in Japan but all over the world. There’s definitely a new generation of people from the USA, Europe, Brazil, even Australia making music who are inspired by your sound. How does it feel to have you work reflected back at you like this? I imagine it would be a strange eXperience? [Kyary]: It is very strange but I feel very happy at the same time. There is a lot of cool Japanese music and I’d love more fans overseas to know about it. [Lewis]: Most people will have found your music through music videos, which have become a central part of your work. Whenever I watch a new video of yours, at first, it’s just like a simple pop-music clip, but then it becomes more and more captivating. There’s always compleX symbolism, miXing the scary and strange with the cute and friendly.

  • News Release April 3, 2019 JTB Okinawa Corp
    News Release April 3, 2019 JTB Okinawa Corp. 112-1 Asahimachi, Naha, Okinawa 900-0029, TEL: 098-861-1427 (main) Many events will take place in May-June to kick start the hot summer! JTB Okinawa launches “Okinawa E-motion” ~ A new tourism campaign produced by JTB in Okinawa ~ JTB Okinawa Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Naha City, Okinawa; President & CEO: Kenji Sugimoto; hereinafter “JTB Okinawa”), WONDER RYUKYU Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Ginowan, Okinawa; President: Kosuke Tsuruta; hereinafter “WONDER RYUKYU”) and ASOBISYSTEM Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya Ward, Tokyo; President and CEO: Yusuke Nakagawa; hereinafter, ASOBISYSTEM) created a new tourism campaign, Okinawa E-motion*1, to promote Okinawa tourism during the off season in May and June. Tourism to Okinawa tend to be concentrated during the spring break and the summer. There is a need to equalize the tourism by stimulating travel demand during the off season. The period from the end of Golden Week in early May until the rainy season in June is the off season which tourists avoid. However, this period has very few long rainy periods and is not too hot. It is not well known that this is actually the best season for tourism with plenty of bargain deals on trips. Therefore, we plan to stimulate travel demand by establishing this time of year as Event Month and the best season for Okinawa tourism. We will do this by consolidating various resort events, together with developing an “Okinawa E-motion” tourism promotion with the keyword and hashtag #FlyingSummer to do advance promotion for the beginning of the summer season in Japan.

  • Kyary Pamyu Pamyu: More Than a Japanese Lady Gaga
    Kyary Pamyu Pamyu: More than a Japanese Lady Gaga A Profile of Harajuku’s Official “Kawaii Ambassador” By Allie Lewis, [email protected] for Advanced Composition, ETSU, December 2013 1 | P a g e My first exposure to Kyary Pamyu Pamyu began with her wacky music videos released on YouTube. I came upon an internet gif of the petite Japanese girl vomiting animated black birds from her mouth and was instantly intrigued. After a short investigation I was treated to a conglomeration of adorable weirdness. Her music videos became an instant hit among my artsy East Tennessee State University college friends as well, and I soon developed an obsession with the young, disgustingly cute, J-pop artist. I even went as far as to construct a costume of her “Fashion Monster” outfit to wear at one of our local anime conventions. In the late spring of 2013 Kyary began her KPP World Tour, with the closest showing to my hometown of East Tennessee being the Best Buy Theater at Times Square, New York. My friends and I did some financial calculations, and made the brash decision to purchase our tickets and attend that very New York concert. At Times Square, on a chilly Sunday Evening in May, we stood in line for the concert, admiring the cute pastel outfits and extravagant costumes of the fellow concert-attendees. One girl proudly wore her skirt constructed from snack bags, another displayed a hat shaped liked Japanese pudding on her head. It was like a contest of eccentricity. To our left, a group of fans performed a flash mob to her hit “Tsukema Tsukeru,”each dancer elaborately dressed and superbly choreographed.
