Tokyo House Party by Area 11
Title: Tokyo House Part
Artist: Area 11
Album: All The Lights In The Sky
Track No.: 5
In my opinion as a bassist one of the stand out tracks of the album. Hits my
choice of one of my favorite songs at this moment. The bassline is
distinctive yet simple and Kogie uses constant improvisation in this song to
spice things up. I have tried to replicate to my best ability. I advise a
clean setting until the outro/breakdown where a distortion must be used to
sound anything like the recording.
Area 11 is a British band from Bristol. They have a big twist, however, they
have a love of anime. The band sing about popular anime's while combing
different elements of different genres including the Eastern music and
Western music cultures. For example Tokyo House Party twists from a Rock song
to a Electro soundtrack to a distortion based breakdown. Many know Area 11
for Sparkles* (lead singer) appearance with the internet superstars the
YogsCast (British comedy duo) and the use of their music (Vectors track 2
ending) for outing the videos. A recent single of theirs includes Minecraft
Christmas which features Simon Lane of the YogsCast and which video has all
the members of this internet monopoly. The members to date include: Sparkles*
(singer/keytarist), Parv (guitarist), Kogie (bassist) and Leo (drummer).
Tuning: Standard (EADG)
