You’re Doing it Wrong
You’re Doing it Wrong by Mike Jackobo
“What do you mean ‘I am doing it wrong’?”. This is a photo I’ve made for a twitter event in celebration of the international release of “Miss Unlimited” by Passcode. This is the second time I mention the group Passcode in the Photoblog; the first being the photo titled オレンジ.
Passcode is an Alternative Idol group. Idol groups are japanese girl bands playing pop or poppy rock. Alternative Idols are girl bands like normal Idols but their music is based on Heavy metal and other styles of extreme or Avant Garde music. The result is something extremely interesting as it is an approach to music that for us westerners is familiar but it somehow sounds different.
If you want to hear some of my favourite groups from this style of music, you may check my relevant post here on Steemit.
A few words about the photo I made for the Twitter event. The original idea was to have myself screaming in the background (for obvious reasons). The text on the CD wouldn’t be readable though and I also had to change the lighting setup. So I changed the plan to that which I present in the photo. Having my hand visible as it places the needle of the turntable on the CD. In the end, I like this approach more because it focuses on the subject, which is the CD by itself.
