Shotaro-san (Arashi back singer) blog Hello, well it was released, Arashi’s new album, “Beautiful World” recording was took very long time. first draft song I did at studio was “Rock this” it was so hard!! but fun, I was really happy that this time on credit, I appeared as chorus arrangement, but “Joy” “Negai” I have arranged these, it was completely different song, so I struggled. but tune was really good. I enjoyed to do it. compositors are amazing. I’m in chorus too, not only arrangement. I was surprised!! but happy. I got sample, and I got so excited by myself end of last month. Actually studio was good!! people stayed at studio during that period, not only members, Ayaka HIrahara-san, Hisaishi Jo (“Uta no Chikara” Kohaku song compositor) and so many. they are other booths but I greeted them, but there’re so many great people.among it my master Ko-saku-san and his disciple shotaro recorded different tune in the same time. I took photo with producer and engineer and other. I got paper written “first day of recording.” in the end it exceeded over 60 days. we have completion party after completed all process. this was screened along with music. it was really good, made me cry. this was really memorial piece for me, I was so pleased to participate
