[Exclusive Interview] GARNiDELiA during
ANIMAX CARNIVAL MALAYSIA 2016
Kuala
Lumpur, April 2016 – During my previous coverage on ANIMAX CARNIVAL MALAYSIA 2016 (http://www.wljack.com/2016/04/coverage-animax-carnival-malaysia-2016.html),
I have been given the opportunity to take part in the exclusive interview with
the aspiring vocalist MARiA and
music composer Toku from GARNiDELiA.
These
are some of the interview Q&A which has taken place:
How do you guys feel about Malaysia
considering that it is the first time for you both to perform in our country?
In our
country, it’s not often that we can see so many people actually holding up
their cameras during our performances. (Photography and videography are highly
restricted in our country). It surprises us that while the audiences are holding
their cameras, they could actually sing along with us.
Besides,
we knew that learning a different language can be difficult. We felt touched
that the fans were actually able to sing in Japanese.
Nonetheless,
both of us really enjoyed performing here.
How
would you introduce GARNiDELiA to someone who is new to your music?
Digital
rock, J-pop and dance music. Our genre is quite wide and we do all kinds of
music. So it’s difficult for us to define our music with just words.
If
you could choose, which of your own songs are the ones you like the most?
It’s
very hard for us to choose, because we only deliver the songs that we like. In
fact, we actually like every songs that we made.
Instead
of choosing a song that we like the most, there’s a song that means the most to
us, which is “Mirai”. We had a fan club event in Japan recently.
The fans
voted for which song that they liked the most, and they chose “Mirai”. We felt
that this song can help us to connect with the fans the most. Thus, making it
the song which meant the most for us.
Can
you all share with us regarding your greatest inspiration?
Toku: I
compose the music based on what Maria wants to sing. Maria is my biggest
inspiration.
MARiA :
Whenever I write lyrics for my songs, I would keep the fans in my mind. The
fans are my inspiration.
Both of
them are really cute artistes with great musical talent. For those who have
missed their show last month. Don’t worry, you can still have the chance to
catch them LIVE next month! (Will share more regarding their upcoming event
soon in my website)
