I always think it's the same process of getting to know myself when I explore the music.

- Music Habits -

• A listmania!
• Archive Everything!
• Collect debut albums.
• Listen to albums in original orders.
• I belong to album-oriented people.
• Addicted to things related to discography.
• Keep the tickets of all the gigs I've been to.
• Good music always makes me have goose bumps.
• Do not like Japanese editions which is too fancy for me.
• Have a weakness for long tracks & closing tracks on albums.
• Rave about music to people I can talk to (often out of place though).
• My ratings might be somewhat strict as I believe good things only come in a small amount.
• Can't stand the reissue editions without the original covers or adding a meaningless slipcase.
• Play a live CD to wake myself up in the morning. The thrilling sound in the opening means to me a good day to come.
