All of her Mechanical Universe live performances, never fails to make me sob. Massive thank you for this one dude

[@reiinaa]

thanks for recording this one man

[@Grondhammar]

Great sound, that was a wonderful performance. 機械仕掛乃宇宙 in particular is powerful -- very clear, almost sharp contrasts compared to other performances I've seen of the same piece. And Space Orphans is the perfect send-off. Thanks for posting!

Thanks, i recorded the sound separately using my phone which has a very high quality microphone, and then combined it with the camera microphone recording as well. Although i should have used another camera lens, this one was very luminous for the dark scene but is a bit blurry at the same time.

@@_danifernandez_ Ah, that makes more sense. I was listening on studio monitors and the sound is so clear. I thought there must have been some post-processing, which is very surprising for a "non-official" recording. I'm glad you were there with a 静かな audience -- but I think all us Ichiko fans are a little on the quiet side😊. Again, excellent audio work🙏

I have been trying to learn how to play patchwork for months and I hadn’t been able to find a live performance of it. Thanks for recording this and helping me! 🌸

[@_danifernandez_]

That's awesome! I haven't seen any live where she plays patchwork either. I also wanted to learn Patchwork and it's actually very easy except for the fast arpeggio but the chords are very simple. Just the two middle strings up and down the 5th to 7th fret.

@@_danifernandez_ yes omg that arpeggio is so difficult to master for some reason! Thank goodness the chords aren’t difficult.
