This live performance from 2014's "Sonic Mania" is now available on the XAVEL label with stunning quality that lives up to expectations!
"Sonic Mania" was held prior to the annual summer tradition, "Summer Sonic." This item captures our Kraftwerk stage, which opened the show on the main stage of this all-night event, positioned as a pre-Soma Sonic event, with a superb audience recording and a stable, high-quality audience shot!
During their 2013 solo tour of Japan, the XAVEL label recorded the live stage of the daily set, which took place over eight nights at Akasaka Blitz, with astonishing high-quality sound that surpasses even soundboard recordings. Their 2014 Japan tour was also recorded in full with "that" gem of sound quality, boasting a direct and astounding range. This time, it even comes with video! A bonus DVD includes unreleased footage using the original source by XAVEL's video team, "Alexander"! It perfectly captures every song, from the opening "The Robot" to Ralph's exit scene in the final "Musique Non Stop"! From the perfect position, almost directly in front of the PA table, I was able to capture all four members and the screen behind them, and there was nothing to complain about in terms of stability or power!! This is amazing!!!
There were certainly some disappointing aspects to this concert, such as the shortened festival-style set and the lack of 5.1ch surround, but the remix arrangements had been slightly changed since their last visit to Japan in 2013, and additional elements could be seen throughout the footage, so this is a must-have item not only for die-hard fans who made it to the venue, but also for fans who didn't feel like making it to Makuhari late at night on Friday!
