Fuaim – Ucess Lounge, Harajuku, Tokyo

I am back from my Japan trip with Nedry, and it is now time to go properly through all the pictures, sounds and videos. I start easy with some shots from the band Fuaim, who played with Nedry at the Ucess Lounge in Harajuku, Tokyo.
Japan – Eggman gig

The weather in Tokyo these last few days has been pretty horrendous, and I’ve been busy filming under the rain for Nedry’s blog, keeping my camera safe and sound… However, some pretty interesting things happened indoors like Nedry’s gig at Eggman, the biggest show of the tour:
Nedry – Condors, Japan Edition

Nedry ran out of CDs of their latest album Condors on the Japan tour, so we decided to create a special edition CD. The cover is one of the photos that I took during the first Japan gig. Here it is:
I am quite happy that we used a photo from the Japan trip, did the [...]
In Japan, I wish I did not have to sleep

I am currently following Nedry’s tour in Japan, and it has been absolutely brilliant, despite being constantly pushed by time.
The days are similar in their planning (transport mayhem, soundcheck, eat, play, drink, drink, blog, sleep) and yet so different. My senses are overloaded with faces, places, sounds. I am always tired and constantly carrying 12 [...]
Japan – Harajuku, Tokyo

A few photos from Nedry’s gig in Harajuku in Tokyo. I was a bit disappointed as we did not see that many lolitas hanging about in the streets, but it was still an interesting area, and an awesome venue.
Japan – Backstage @ Anga, Chiba

A few photos taken backstage at Anga, Chiba, where Nedry was playing their first Japan gig. Have to go to the next gig now, more photos later!
Nedry Live @ Anga, Chiba
A little video I made using pictures taken from Nedry’s first gig in Japan + one song (Condors) recorded that night. See more of Nedry and our trip here and on their website.

In Japan with Nedry – Day 1 – Transit

First day in Japan after about 20 hours of transit in planes and trains. Bit of a scare at Heathrow because my camera bag was 12kg instead of 5, which was promptly solved by following the advice from the security dude and taking the camera and the laptop out of the bag and carrying them [...]
To Japan with Nedry

I am really psyched to tell you that I am flying to Japan in a few days.
I will be documenting the tour of my good friends from the band Nedry in Tokyo and Osaka. We plan to blog daily from there and you will be able to follow it all on their website: nedrymakesmusic.com (website [...]
Nedry @ The Dublin Castle, 14 Jun 2009

Staying in the dark black&white mood from the last post. I liked the lights at this Nedry gig, very different from the one at the Good Ship.
Good crowd turn out, tighter set, things are coming together at a steady pace, and I can’t wait for their album to come out (August!).
Nedry @ The Good Ship, 22 May 2009

The awesome Nedry built up in intensity as the set went along, Ayu’s fantastic voice supplementing Matt and Chris’s catchy beats.
Read my review of the gig here.
Nedry @ Ginglik, 9th May 2009

Nedry is a fantastic band. Matt and Chris take you to some fantastic place between Air and Boards of Canada, and Ayu gently adds her mesmerizing voice.
