Live DVD & CM3 by Cornelius!

Saturday, February 7th 2009

An amazing performance created by amalgamating the visions and sounds of the band performance is what you would observe at Cornelius live shows. From around the times of his smash hit album "Fantasma" the artist incorporated the method into his show, and the quality of the performance kept improving and finally seems to have reached its peak - the quality and sensitivity of cohesion of sound and vision is nothing like you've ever seen before.

Cornelius led "Sensuous Synchronized Show" to promote his latest album "Sensuous"; over 2 years he travelled around Japan once, and twice the US, Europe and Australia.

From the tour this brand new live DVD features the show at Tokyo International Forum on 30 March, 2008. Meanwhile the 2nd disc will cover the artist's live broadcast by NHK, and his own live & documentary program "Keigo Oyamada's Nakameguro TV" and his appearance in "yo GABBA GABBA", an American childrens TV program!

Cornelius's international reputation seems to be growing higher and higher, as his work is being nominated for a Grammy award this year. Now's the time probably to experience his amazing live performance.

The series of Cornelius' remixes of other artists works, titled "CM (Cornelius Mix)", boasts quality and originality on par with the artist's own original works and is fairly popular.

Now part 3 of the series is due for release. This time Cornelius remixes a wide range of tracks by Ryuichi Sakamoto, Denki Groove X Schadaraparr, James Brown, Bloc Party and more!

The artist adds different colours despite the strong characteristics of those works and turn them into something brand new - amazing!

When you buy "Ultimate Sensuous Synchronizedshow" and "CM3" at the same time at HMV Online you'll get a chance to win a special Cornelius goods! (TBC)

CORNELIUS' film title "Sensurround + B-sides" has been nominated for the Best Surround Sound Album Award!

The title "Sensurround + B-sides"is a combination of the DVD version of the 2006 album "Sensuous" coupling with a CD of B-side track compilation.

The artist uses the art video that was played during the show on "Sensuous" tour. Obviously the film director is our good old Koichiro Tsujikawa. The CD contains 9 tracks including rare items e.g. "Clap Whistle and Walking", the B-side to the single "Music", and "Turn Turn" featuring Ryuichi Sakamoto and a "Fit Song" remix etc.

※"Sensurround + B-sides" is NOT available at HMV Japan as it is on a different region code and therefore not viewable on a regular DVD player in Japan.

However if you want to enjoy the title you can still buy "Sensurround" which contains the same tracks as those of "Senssuround + B-sides"!
