Salvaged Noteは、Hazi(Vo,Rap)、52(Gt,Vo)、michi(Gt, Cho)、Ryutao(Ba, Cho)、TKA(Dr)の5ピース編成による2006年10月に結成したバンドである。 5人が創り出すフレーズとメロディーはシンプルだが胸にぐっと突き刺さる。サウンドは新しく心地よい。
メンバーは5人とも幼少の頃から海外で育ち、ライフスタイルからマインドまで様々な影響を受けている。確立されている音楽に捉われず、様々な音楽の要素を吸収し、いままでにない彼ら独自のサウンドを築いている。アメリカ、マレーシア、タイなどの国で多感な幼少期を過ごし得た自由な発想と経験からメンバーのベースとなる音楽の感性が築かれている。英詩、日本詩のメロディーやラップが入り混ぜる楽曲は幅広いリスナーに感動を与えたい。2006年10月、「Open the Window」,「gift」,「truth」を収録したデモCDからスタート、首都圏を中心にライブハウス、クラブで活動を続ける。
Salvaged Note is a 5 piece band, Hazi(Vo,Rap)、52(Gt,Vo)、michi(Gt, Cho)、Ryutao(Ba, Cho)、TKA(Dr). Started in the year 2006, October. The music, the melody which they produce is rather simple, but it's something that hits your heart. The 5 members are all Japanese, but not just a JAPANESE. They have all spent their life growing as a kid outside of Japan, in places such as New York, Malaysia, Thailand, and many more. From the experience of growing up in foreign countries, they bring to you the new taste and "never heard" kind of MUSIC. Lyrics both in English and Japanese, from slow melody to fast rap. They have built a little chemistry by mixing their own experience, thoughts, and taste for the listeners around the world. Their first demo CD was out in October 2006, with 3 songs: "open the window" , "gift" , and "truth."
