.プロジェクト始動時から日テレさんにお願いしていた、“音楽番組“そして“YouTubeでの配信“という、一昔前なら議論にも上がらなさそうな企画がついに通りました。本当に嬉しいです。パフォーマンスをしっかりと撮るスタジオが無いならライブ会場を使ってしまえば大きな規模の物が撮れるし、スタジオトークだけでなく裏側の本当に素の状態での姿が盛り込まれた物が生まれれば、日本の音楽シーンにとって明らかに画期的で、そして必要なコンテンツが生まれる、という強い思いがありましたし、それは“世界中の誰でも見れる“物である必要もありました。インターネット全盛の時代、YouTubeの存在を知らない人を見つける方が難しい時代の現代、日本からYouTubeで見られる音楽番組が生まれる事の意義は強く感じていますので、“ここから“築き上げていきたいと思います。何卒宜しくお願い致します。<SKY-HI>
