Well done as always.
Little known fact - if she hits a secret combination of buttons at once, it rips a hole in our reality. You can tell she's doing it when her music is simply otherworldly.
One of Saiki's most interesting vocal performances, changing it up every few lines (hell, she goes from G3 to a Db3 at the start and keeps it even and strong and her smooth changes from first to second register are astounding. Miku should get a nod for her low to high harmony changes too. Then there's that whole Kanami pedalboard thing...oh, you've covered that! I was a bit surprised that the pedals all have English labels on them, not Japanese.
"MESA, MESA, MESA" - one for each channel... :-)
This song performance is so underrated. For me is one of the most technical ones.
Everyone contributed with their unique touch
Wave Potter: "There are captions on this!"
Me: "Are there *_really_* though?"
Oh no where did the winrar caption go :)
Every time I see Kanami playing her PRS, she presses the "love button" of my heart ❤️😍🎸🔥
Happy 29th birthday MISA ❤️🎂🎉
Thank you Wave, very interesting video. I spend hours dissecting Mincho's pedalboard, it's really fascinating!
Another thick slice of the "WHY THIS BAND MAID SERVICE IS SO FREAKING GREAT" cake. Even for a non musician it's fascinating how Kaname creates her sound as you pointed out. Excellent!
MISA Happy MISA Birthday MISA!
Great insight Wave, thanks. Well Kanami is not just a genius composer and player, she's also a scientist of sounds. I guess it would take some time for me - let's say 3 years - to master this board fully together with my amp alone 😃
Happy Birthday 🎂 MISA, Bass guitarist 🎸 of Band-Maid🎀! We love 💘 your music 🎶 here in Silicon Valley! Rock on Barefoot 👣 Assassin !
I'm only too happy to let the ladies take me to the Wonderland again and again. :)
For non-musicians like me, it was a very nice insight into the technical aspects that come into play in addition to guitar playing. As if Kanami's parts alone aren't exhausting enough, she also has to deal with something like that. And probably she also has the next song in her head at the same time. :) My admiration for her doesn't necessarily decrease with insights like these. 💘🤭
Thx as always and best Greetings!

Now you know why Kanami wears flat, sensible shoes. Happy birthday MISA.🙂👋🎂
Now Gary, we can all see the high heeled platforms she is wearing on stage. LOL
@@powbobs Unless you were kidding, our Kanami very rarely wears anything other than her flat loafers on stage. As you know, powbobs, she likes to move around stage and dance a bit -- maybe even crash one of Akane's cymbals with her foot from time to time. ;-)
@@TomClark-Futoura
But in this video she’s wearing high heeled platforms.
@@powbobs She wears her clogs for most Band-Maid outside business stuff like interviews including these single performance playthroughs held in their rehearsal studios and for MV's. But generally not on stage unless it's for a photo shoot or something. ;-)
@@TomClark-Futoura
I guess I just don’t watch her feet much. LOL
i love saikis voice i like her falcito... so beautiful
The other maids were apparently quite angry and accused Kanami of abusing Saiki for forcing her to stay in head voice for such extended periods during early rehearsals.
Saiki can do it easily now though
Wow!. Very educational, thank you!. This song is a testament of their wide songwriting capabilities. For me the most impressive characteristic of this band along with the immense facility to convey emotions. Great job Wave. Impressive.
Glad you appreciated the video Juan! Thank you!
Yes. Finally!!!
Let me get my coffee to enjoy this.
Happy birthday Misa.🎈🎈🎉🎉
Kanami uses a Triple Rectefier and she uses the the "Modern Mode" on Channels 2 and 3
It’s a Mesa Triple Rectifier amp.
Saiki and Miku's harmonies are absolutely exquisite ! They are so close it's like one glorious voice ! Andrew Rooney finally broke me down and convinced me to listen to Akane's drumming (Freedom-live). I adore her and I've fallen so far into the Band Maid rabbit hole...I've given up trying to climb out...I'll just drag others down with me ! Thank you for your one of a kind breakdowns !
Great Job Wave! "I haven't heard BandMaid play anything like this before", seems to be a common theme with them. A testament to their awesome uniqueness and creativity. Unlike any other band!
Your guitarist/reviewer colleague Axe japan did a similar breakdown of Kanami's pedal board some time ago. It was equally large but from memory a different layout and more simple. Clearly she is evolving her pedal support. She did a good demo video for Morley pedals so she is fully conversant with the technology.
You should check out *Chase Carneson* reaction to this song and his statement he made for this band. 😊
and he is correct.
High quality contribution Wave. Great job (as always). Thanks for teaching me that Winrar can be used at the start of a sentence☺.
That pedal board is truly impressive. I picture Kanami as a mad scientist or alchemist searching for just the right sound formula. ⚗🧪🎸 Thanks for all the explanations!
Excellent rundown and editing of your speech, Wave. It all makes for a clear, quick and entertaining way to get a ton of info on Kanami's extensive rig. BTW - it was Miku running those great atmospheric riffs. Since Dragon's, she been pulling some riffs off quite well. I'm hoping she's writing more of those runs and rhythm chords herself now.
and you wonder why she wear sensible shoes lol love the photo of her peddles
Two points:
a. Kanami is simply amazing. She puts more thought into her tone than I could ever imagine.
b. The beautiful thing about Band-Maid is that a person could randomly pick 5 songs and believe that they only do full tilt hard rock, but upon hearing a sixth song they do something stunningly wondrous like "Wonderland", "Page", "Daydreaming," or "About Us". The breadth and depth of their talent is breath taking.
I read a review of their ONLINE ACOUSTIC OKYU-JI where the reviewer referenced MTV's "Unplugged" and noted that many bands couldn't really pull it off: they just sounded boring, but not Band-Maid who were able to pull it off brilliantly. He said that Band-Maid was able to deconstruct each song and reassemble each of them back into a totally different piece, just as amazing as the original.
Kudos to Band-Maid for their lovingly crafted music.
There are a few shots of Saiki winking at the camera especially on fancam recordings. And yes, the extra guitar work behind Kanami was Miku.
As much as I enjoy Unseen World and their latest release, Wonderland is still my top 3 band-maid song.
It's not just beautiful but kind of weird in the best way possible.
I'm secretly hoping that the girls will put in some interesting mid-tempo songs in the next album.
この楽曲は上等なワインの様な味で、ロックとかメタルとかの域を超えたカッコイイ音楽です！
Wave, it is always different, always interesting, and always Band-Maid. Thank you for the "breakdown". Keep up the great work.
Rumor has it that Kanami commissioned NASA to build that pedalboard for her. ;)
It was Dai-San, Daisuke Kondo, her amazing guitar tech who also owns the grey PRS she used o play all the time before she got her own.
@@powbobs Thanks for the info! I had no idea the grey PRS wasn't hers. =)
Had a discussion about Kanami at the video of "Choose me" with somebody who wanted to downplay her talent... Pretty sure he is a old grumpy man who never got further than the 3-chords...
Sounds about right! They’re probably very jealous of Kanami’s talent. 😂
Another awesome analysis Wave! and Happy Birthday MISA
You're the first reactor I've seen who noticed that Miku was playing that guitar melody at one point.
Fantastic breakdown!!!! Love it. Thank you so much for sharing your time researching and preparing, and for your amazing expertise. I shall re-watch that video several times until I have her pedal board memorized.
I like the chat room comment that pointed out that with the pedal board's master box, it is difficult to know the underlying, specialized program. Reminds me of an airplane's cockpit flight control computer system box. Each cockpit box sends a signal to the FCCS (the master control box -- think of it as the CPU for the entire airplane's astronics), and the FCCS is programmed to react to the other boxes' signals sent to it. There is no way to know what the FCCS is doing without reading its specialized built-in software.
That was clever of you to locate the external boxes' lights to determine which "boxes" her "FCCS" activated. Kanami obviously had her entire system programmed to her liking, but it impresses me how she arrived at its settings. I'm guessing she works closely with a top-notch sound techie. Props to whomever that is, and as you pointed out for us, we know that they keep upgrading her platform as the B-M Prime set-up differs from that of her prior set-up photographed earlier.
I’m so glad you appreciated the video Rabbs! And you getting me to look into this forced me to learn a lot! I’ve never learned about these master controllers, but now I want to! So fascinating!
Congrats on the shout out Rabbi.👍
@@GaryHolloway-810 Thanks, Gray!
@@Rabbi_Rabbs 😆Oh damn, you're saying that as well :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 😆😆
On live audios, they always keep Kanami on the right channel.
I love froggy Miku doubling the melody :)
You remembered the froggy voice.👍
@@GaryHolloway-810 are you the one who coined the term "froggy voice" for Miku's harmonies? Because that's what I call it now too.
5:18 was Miku
6:55 also Miku
7:17 yup Miku
Oh and the low pitch voice is also Miku, and she switches low to high pitch voice instantly.
Those were top tear harmonies
Her nuanced fills and little additions along with the complex harmonies. I stand in awe of her progress to what I now call the"power quartet" instead of the power trio. JMHO
One of my favorite band maid songs . I really enjoyed the gear breakdown oart
One of a kind band!
She uses a Mesa triple rectifier.
I'm looking forward to hearing your falsetto, when you do a one-man cover of this song ;P hehe
ハッピバースデイ ミサさん ！！ いつも かわいい～よね。
ネモフィラやラブバイツも素晴らしいがバンドメイドはテクニックとは関係ない別次元のところに存在している信じられないアーティスト、奇跡としか思えない。
Wave is swept away by the maids into a wonderland of sound.
I didn't know of Band-Maid Prime. Will subscribe ASAP. I really want to support and show my love for this band
Yes, that's Miku playing lead on the 2nd verse. It's kinda in the back of the mix. On their DAY OF MAID online Okyuji, you can clearly hear Miku's lead when they played Wonderland and it was refreshing to hear.
About Kanami's effect arsenal, she practically is a mad scientist. She said it in their collab stream with Herman Lee, Herman said she should meet Paul Reed Smith, the founder of PRS, that he's a guitar scientist and his mind is a genius and thinks differently, then Kanami replied she'd love to have a conversation with him since she is the same. Imagine that conversation.
Kanami chatting to Paul Reed Smith. Oh I would pay just to listen to that conversation! Plus Paul should commission a Kanami signature PRS (called the PRS Coffee and Cake).
Being a rock guitarist is a lot more complicated than I thought.
That is actually an extremely spartan pedal board and set up mainly to make it easy to play guitar without needing to think too much about dynamics or how strong or soft yo play or how to mix match with the rest of the band....im pretty sure that who made her pedal board has made pretty much the same for the others and the lead singer microphone.
"winrar get beaten up and put on the back". Huh. Seems this song is not what I thought it was about. ;-)
I might have to go back and watch this vid with the [CC] on and check out what the a.i. "fanfiction" translation comes up with. I mean, winrar? Is that why the compression on 'The Dragon Cries' is over done? Spicy stuff.
lol, wondering which of the tech-heads would make that joke first!
Seems things have gotten a lot more complicated since I stopped playing.
Winrar lmao band-maids offical file compression.
winrar got beaten up and put on the back the lovely wings
WP would love LOVEBITES' "Daughters of the Dawn" Blu-ray. The bonus on it is Asami interviewing Miyako, Midori, Miho, and Haruna about their gear. The former three go through their pedalboards as well.
Group band vob ok?
VOB are really great
そこいく？ 他にあるでしょ？
Why do so many of you "experts"think anyone would enjoy watching you slurp drinks and wipe your mug while trying to watch the performance??@#$%???
",Auto translate' that should help"
Pro-tip: auto translate is only helpful when people are speaking at a moderate pace with good diction and no sluring or accents. Terrible for song lyrics.
