Ok so I just realised that I havent had an entire Gaki entry in ages, but then again not much is happening fer her solo wise, so i decided to post pics of Risa because there are some insanely amazing photo's of her out there at the moment


So these are the Gaki goes to college set. She looked amazing in the PV and that doesn't change here. She is absolutly stunning but the 3rd pic on the right blew me away. It shows a mix of sexyness, maturity and fragility AND I WANT IT!!


And these are the Shouganai Yumeoibito set. These outfits are friggen gorgeous, they are elegant around the torso and super sexy around the legs with that skirt/pants thing. These dont really need any explaination, her poses are perfect, cute smile, and awesome hair.

Ya so ages ago I posted a thing about the new dubgroup I was setting up and was looking for generation 2 of the group. Well since then, Gen 1 have debuted along with releasing 2 slinter group songs, generation 2 and 3 have been added. Gen 2 will debut soon as well as a joint dub project and a solo release in the works.



So Generation 1 consisting of myself, Dran, Cheeky chill, Aibonono and etherealmotives debuted with our 1st release "Ai no Tane". It seemed right for H!B's 1st song to be Morning Musume's very 1st song. The instrumental was not at a contant bit rate when released in that early singles box set thing so cotton our mixer had a hard job syncing everything together. We, the singers also had it tough as the japanese was very hard in this single and it took everyone multiple tries to get it right. We were all really proud of what we had accomplished and with the first release out of the way we steamed ahead.





Then while searching for our generation 2, the existing group of 5 members were split into 2 splinter grouns "Ne!" & "Double Yu". Ne! which was basically the guy group included EtherealMotives, Dran and myself. We covered Aa!'s First kiss. This song was much easier in both pace and pronounciation. Ethereal dubbed Reina's lines, dran covered Miyabi's and I had the hard task of doing Airi's lines, but haveing the least deep voice it seemed to make the most sence. Cotton's work on this release was flawless, it is so perfect, he did an awesome job. I thoroughly enjoyed this release as I really liked this song.





H!B's latest release the 2nd splinter group from gen 1. It was the girls group consisting of Aibonono and Cheeky Chill that we called "Double Yu". They covered W's "Koi no Vacance". This release was released later than anticipated but in the end we got it out there. The girls really did an awesome job with this. Cotton was busy so I had to take up the task of mixing the track. This task was made a lot easier by the girls perfect timing, all I had to do was allign the girls tracks with the instrumental.



So they are the releases H!B have put forward so far, but we have loads more to offer. We have 4 new members, Eridorian, AimxAim, bee & jingkoto. They re really excited about their 1st release so I hope some people watch/listen to our releases and if anyone is interested in joining H!B please let me know:)

P.S sorry for the lack of updates until now, I had exams for the last month and a half but I thank you all you kept checking to site for updates, I promise I will post more over the summer.

See ya'll later!

Hey guys sorry that I havent posted in ages, its exam season and wouldn't you know it, I have exams :/

Anyway ages ago I talked to Dran from Berryz Kyuuden about subbing vids. He said it was pretty easy but it involved a lot of patience....A LOT!! So I just acknowledged it and went about my day. Then a few weeks ago the pv for Morning Musume's "Shouganai Yume Oibito" single came out and after a few watches I got the urge to sub it. I dont really know why, maybe its because its such a nice pv, maybe because I absolutly friggen love the song, and maybe the fact that Gaki looks and sounds amazing pushed me into the subbing phase.

So I went to dohhh up and ripped the video.....then I was stuck XD. I went on to msn and subtly asked dran how I start subbing. Actually it wasn't subtle at all I just out and asked him how to sub haha!

So he explained that I had to go and download a software thing called 'Aegisub'. So I did that...and let me tell ya, you cant work it by opening it as soon as you get it and make a subbed video, oh no you cant! You have to read ¬.¬

So I went online and looked at the manual.....then closed it again and went to Dran on msn ....again ^^; And Dran kindly walked me through the very basics, like the interface, what things meant etc.

Eventually I got the video loaded into the aegisub, now all I needed were the Kanji lines, its romaji counterpart and a full translation. Piece of cake... I just hopped over to Musume-Central and sferris had done all the work for me XD. He very kindly allowed me to use his translations.

So I put the lyrics into the software and timed it...which isn't too bad. But OH MY FRIGGEN GAWD, doing the karaoke timing of the romaji took me flippen ages. But I eventually got it done, and seeing how long it took me to do the romaji, I decided not to do the kani with it ^^;. so that was done, but for some reason I left the project for like a week or so, then I remembered it was there one day when I was bored and put in the english translations.

Then came the encoding part *Que thunder*. I asked Dran (yes him!) how to encode, he said ask SacredCultivor from Hello!Fansubs, which I did. He then said that he was terrible at explaining how to do it, that was fine no problems there [we love you over here at mayuge madness SC]. SC then recommended that ask this other dude that I had never heard of.

So I went back to Dran XD. And I sent him my video file as well as all the subs with the timing to him and he worked his magic and encoded the lot for me. He also gave me a template code thing for the romaji to make the karaoke look better plus....he also did the starting credits because when I did them for some stupid reason they never worked.

So after all that, I uploaded it to youtube and it has recieved over 200 views yay. I also made a torrent out of it [after Dran showing me how XD] and uploaded it to Hello!Online and there it had been downloaded 674 times to this very second. That actually made me go WOW! Then the vid got re-uploaded to youtube a few times by other users, I finally became one of those people. The type of person who does something so great or stupid that other people want to upload your stuff onto youtube.

So finally I once again want to thanks sferris and a huge thatks to Dran for all his help.

Now here is the vid, please enjoy and comment or whatever haha. see ya!

well as if the pic didn't speak for itself, I will explain a little.

I started H!B after doing some fan dubbing myself and then a group of us over at musume-central did some group dubs. I found it pretty fun and thought that I would like to do it more often. So I set up a forum and roped my friends from musume-central, Aibonono, cheekychill [of JKC Revolution], EtherealMotives and our very own Dran [of Berryz Kyuuden]. Togther with myself are the 1st generation. We are going to debut with Ai no tane and will hopefully continue to grow and dub till the cows come home. If you are interested in joining a dub group, be you a guy or girl, then why not join us and get in at the ground floor, well 1st floor seeing as you will be the 2nd gen.

To join either go to the forum at http://hellobaka.proboards.com/index.cgi and post your audition or else go to the recruitment vid on youtube and post a video response of you singing a full H!P song, or you can pm me the link to a downloadable mp3.



good luck to all who auditon.

hey, sorry to all the lovely people who read Mayuge Madness, I havent posted in ages, I was on a fieldtrip away studying rocks, then I went to Rome on a holiday. So this is a medley post of sorts, I am gonna post about a lot of the stuff I missed out on if any of ye are still interested. I wont be posting about everything, just some of the main stuff that interests me the most.

ok so I am gonna start off with the newest, er um news?

Morning Musume's new single has a preview out now!!

The song is called "Shouganai Yumeoibito" which roughly translates to something like "Never stop chasing dreams" or something like that. Now when the title was releasedI like so many other guessed as to what the song would sound like and with the title we had a pic of the cover of the cd.
