Write your review / Fukuoka TV makes Snowcat laugh in the street

Dear fans, friends, passing smiles and even enemies,

hello~~~~ !

We receive more and more reviews from you these days. Thank you ! Therefore, from today on, AWAKEN makes it easier for you to send us your review about an album, single or a song. You just need to click here and fill the form with what's in your heart !

On February 6th, AWAKEN's Gilles Snowcat met by chance the team of Mr Chin Nen of the TV Show Mentai Wide (FBS TV) in Fukuoka. A good laugh that was aired on the 10th of the same month.

That's all for today, folks !

"Lycée nase", la plus grosse daube d'Awaken ? 泡件の一番悪い歌？Bài hát xấu nhất của Awaken?

Huit ans après sa sortie, "PiLT" (Party In Lyceum's Toilets) suscite toujours la controverse. Une nouvelle fois, c'est "Lycée Nase" qui se retrouve au coeur d'une discussion animée.

"De la pure daube", "Ca fait mal au cerveau", "mais qu'est-ce que c'est que cette merde???", "Ce truc est tout simplement inaudible", voici un aperçu des commentaires fusant sur le Forum des Eternels. (et chez Awaken, on n'est pas loin d'approuver...)
Awaken est fier de pouvoir compter "Lycée Nase" parmi les plus mauvais morceaux de l'Histoire. Et pour le plus grand bonheur de nos amis des Eternels, quelques rares exemplaires de "PiLT" sont désormais disponibles chez CD Baby et iTunes (cliquez sur l'image qui bouge):

Mais Awaken, soucieux de ne pas demeurer-r-en reste, a décidé de consoler les oreilles meurtries par "Lycée Nase", en leur offrant un momnt de détente et de voyage magnétique avec les derniers albums et singles "別府 Nights", "Cà Phê And Pizza", "Riding The Yellow Line Gives Vibrations", "Áo Dài Màu Hồng" et "This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo)". C'est ici qu'on découvre !

Happy 2009 ! Chúc mừng năm mới! ２００９年明けましておめでとう!

Dear fans,
thank you for your constant support. May 2009 bring you energy and may it be your magnetic year... Please check our wishcard here. (or below)
Magnetically yours,
Awaken

Derrick先生

キティちゃんDISCOパジャマ

友達へ、ファン達へ、皆様…

こんにちは。お元気ですか？

嬉しい時ですよ！二週間前、別府に着いた。毎日美味しい食べ物いっぱい食べて、焼酎を飲みます。
別府人に質問がある。別府市の中にはＬＩＶＥ・ＨＯＵＳＥがあるんですか？是非別府でコンサートしたいんです。別府か大分か柳ヶ浦等…

ところで、別府市の近くの音楽家があったら、一緒に音楽もしたいんですから、ＡＷＡＫＥＮの歌が好きだたら、コンサートしませんか？
僕にメールで教えて下さい。私のメールはawamail@hellokitty.comです。宜しくお願いします。

そして、他の嬉しいお知らせがある。新しいキティちゃんパジャマを買った！ＤＩＳＣＯ写真を見て下さいね。

皆さんはどうと思うんですか？

じゃ、また会いましょう。体に気をつけて下さい

Album mới ! 新しいアルバム !

Dear friends, fans and passing smiles,

it's been quite a while.

Winter comes as no surprise, and the city lights are already under the charm and the (unexpected) melancholy of the Christmas atmosphere. Some of you expressed the wish to see a new Awaken album for that period of the year. There is one. Not what you may have expected, though. Actually, after more than 20 years of under-underground activity, AWAKEN has been put under maitenance and refreshment. In waiting, Gilles Snowcat recorded an urgent solo mini-album, to continue to spread the magnetic soul of the AWAKEN nebula.

"This Mouth... (Nhạc cho Em Mèo)" is the latest, if not last, part of the BEPPU NIGHTS galaxy, started more than 2 years ago with "Cà Phê & Pizza".

click on the image to download the album

"This Mouth... (Nhạc cho Em Mèo)" is a concept-album, based on magnetic soul ~ love music boosted by kabosu acid (green lemon from Ôita prefecture in Japan), forbidden liquors from mountains and valleys, German wine and other unexplanable sensations. The six pieces (7 if you count the bonus track) have been recorded on a state of emergency that already makes this concept album special among Awaken / Snowcat discography. The trip will include the following destinations:

1. Nhạc cho Em Mèo (part 1)

2. They burn the mountain

3. Don't worry, Em Mèo

4. 香母酢♪蜂蜜♪スナック (Kabosu ~ hachimitsu ~ snack) -interlude-

5. The blue hanger

6. 柳ヶ浦 (Yanagigaura)

bonus track: Nhạc cho Em Mèo (part 2)

"This Mouth... (Nhạc cho Em Mèo)" is available on free download only, at the following places:

Awaken mp3 page

Jamendo Gilles Snowcat page

Turn off the light, enjoy your favorite drink, relax and push the player ON. The magnetic soul soon starts to take you where you couldn't really expect.

Have a magnetic
end-of-the-year.

Awaken,
