Welcome to Kevin's in this room podcast!
Hey!
We've got another voice message, don't we?
Yes!
Alright, let's go man!
This is from...
Natsumi-san!
Thank you!
I think she sent us a voice message before,
maybe this is sort of like a reply message, I don't know.
But we haven't heard of it.
I haven't listened to it yet, but let's go.
Then it might be the personal message to me, maybe?
Umm...
I'm assuming it's not,
because I don't know why she would do that,
giving you this like a personal message for you,
not for us.
Be careful, I'm gonna play that.
Okay, let's...
Yeah, we always have to be careful.
Yes.
Hi Kevin and Yama-chan,
I am Natsumi.
Welcome back!
Thank you for answering my questions some episodes ago,
it really motivated me a lot.
Thank you!
Recently, I listened to a song called
"Feels So Good" by the artist Honne,
to focus on work.
So when you have time,
I would like you to listen to it,
because it feels so good actually.
And I think Yama-chan might like it.
Yes! Really!
So is there any particular song you like to listen to
when you want to focus on something?
I always enjoy listening to your podcasts, thank you.
I will continue to support you.
Yay!
How sweet that we can hear the voices, right?
Yeah!
I'm saying this on every time that we, you know,
That's true!
get the recordings out, but you know, it's so nice.
So nice.
To have voices on here.
So nice.
So please, if you like,
please join us with the voice messaging thing.
It's an app called Anchor.
You can, I think, you don't need an app,
you can just go to anchor.com
and search our Kevin's English Room
and then there's a send a message button
so we can send it and then you can just record it
from your, maybe even from your iPhone without an app,
probably use the browser to access the homepage, right?
You can do that, right?
Because you're doing it with the Mac.
Yeah, I mean smartphones.
Huh?
It doesn't have to be an iPhone.
It doesn't have to be an iPhone.
Gotcha, right, right.
Smartphones.
It doesn't have to be an iPhone.
Sorry, I kind of, that was a, that was a racist, right?
That was, that was like,
overriding system, racist.
Serious matter.
Right, we can't, I don't want to offend you with anything.
That's right.
Androids are okay too.
I feel like, you know,
maybe get your Google Chrome inside
and then get that out.
But yeah, yes.
Another thing I want to get down is,
if you sent us a message on DMs and things like that,
it's always welcome.
Please make sure to, on the very first line,
put "flax" or "males" or "follies" or "radio" or "radio"
03:01
through the TV commercials.
Right, right.
We've also had like the letter in the bottle.
We've also had like the morse code.
Yeah.
We also had like birds.
Yeah, the shabato.
Right, directly sent in.
We also had like "wings," right?
Yeah, if you send us a DM,
we should have put "podcast ate" on the very first line.
So it's easy for us to organize the DMs.
All right. Thanks for...
We just wanted to get that in.
Thank you. That's important.
Thank you for mentioning that.
Yeah.
So let's listen to the song.
I feel like when you were listening to the message,
you kind of already knew what the song was.
Yes. I mean, actually, I don't know that song.
Okay.
But I love "Honne" that the artist called "Honne."
Is that a Japanese?
No.
But they took a Japanese word.
Okay.
So...
Neat.
"Honne," right?
Those are my favorite songs.
My favorite list.
I think they all won from "Honne," I guess.
So is "Honne" like a...
What genre is "Honne"?
Not actually.
Not actually.
It's kind of...
Electro, jazzy...
Nice. I'm already loving it.
Pop.
Yeah, I'm already loving it.
A little club, R&B.
Okay, let's go.
So it's basically R&B.
That's pretty awesome.
Yeah.
So...
This is "Honne."
So what was that? The chord?
"Feel So Good."
"Feel So Good." Okay.
Oh, this one.
Nice.
Yeah, this is already good.
Whoa.
Nice.
Okay, this is really nice.
I'm actually really loving it.
Yeah.
Chill.
Yeah.
It is.
Nice.
Wow, this is good.
Yeah.
I love it.
The bass is like...
Maybe it's her speakers, but...
No, maybe it's...
Heavy bass.
Chill.
I gotta check them out.
Yeah.
H-O-N-N-A.
"Honne."
06:02
So...
Woo!
Hey!
I feel so good right now.
I love the...
I love that it...
How do you describe this?
When the bass line cuts off,
and it's like an empty space,
then the melody comes in,
the savvy comes in,
and then like a few steps after,
the bass jumps.
Yeah.
That's really cool.
Yeah.
That's a kind of typical...
Yeah.
...electro architecture.
The structure.
Yeah, it's nice.
This is really nice, actually.
"Honne."
It's really like on the spot for...
Not only for Yamcha, but me too.
Oh, really?
It's really nice.
So, recently...
Is there any...
So, in the question...
Okay.
Is there any music you listen to when you're on focus?
On focus?
Well, I don't listen to music when I want to focus, actually.
'Cause I...
If I play music, I kind of...
You know...
The music forces me to listen.
Got it.
But if you like "Honne,"
then I would recommend you, Natsumi-san.
Maybe you already know, but...
Maybe...
Maybe...
Of course, Tom Misch.
Why not?
Tom Misch?
Is really...
Tom Misch.
Yeah.
Like...
Oh, sorry.
One, two, three, four.
Oh!
Really chill.
Yeah.
That's the one when we went to a factory.
Okay, okay.
Let's play that song.
Okay.
Nice!
This is really nice too, man.
Yeah.
But it's kind of too famous, maybe.
Really?
So, what about...
Ah...
Maybe Mac-Irls?
09:01
Mac-Irls?
Yeah.
Mac-Irls?
Mac-Irls, okay?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Oh, I know that.
I know this song!
Yeah, yeah.
They're really smooth too.
Yeah.
Like smooth, this low-fi vibe.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The beat comes in after, right?
After several...
Yeah, yeah.
That's really cool.
Yeah.
Nice.
The speakers are really nice too.
Yeah.
The speakers are really nice, kind of.
When you listen with these speakers,
like every song...
Right, right, right, right.
When I focus,
I just listen to songs that are trending.
Trending.
Trending songs.
For me, right now, I listen to...
I really love Ariana Grande.
Ariana Grande, yeah.
Test Drive, Ariana Grande.
I'm listening to it right now.
But probably like two weeks later,
I probably won't be listening to it.
But right now, it's a good one for me.
Okay, let's play that.
Yeah.
The podcast volume is a little...
Yeah, there you go.
Can you focus with this music?
Yeah, I can actually.
Really?
Yeah.
It makes me like move, you know.
Right, I understand.
Or like...
Can I Call You Tonight?
I don't think this is new,
but I discovered it recently.
And it's...
Yeah, that one, that one.
This one?
Yeah, that one.
Yeah.
That was a nice song.
It is a nice song.
Nice.
Half-baked.
Yes, I think so.
I think so.
Yeah.
I love how it has a dreamy kind of atmosphere to it.
It has a strong echo, right?
Oh, yeah.
I like that kind of atmosphere.
Okay.
12:00
Really.
Nice.
It has a little bit of an old taste, doesn't it?
Old taste.
A little bit...
Yeah, like...
Right.
It's...
How do you say?
Like this little delaying on guitars.
Yeah.
Like this echoing.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
It has a vintage kind of taste to it.
Yeah, right.
Nice.
Maybe you love 1975s?
Maybe, maybe, maybe.
Oh, that's a band.
Oh, that's a band?
Yeah.
Can you show it to me?
Yeah, yeah.
It's a British rock band.
Oh, 1974 is the name of the band.
Sorry, it's not this one.
Oh, it's a different one?
The 1975 is the name of the band.
This guy's.
Okay.
Can you play like the biggest one?
Like this is the most famous one.
Sincerity is scary.
It's a British band, rock band actually.
What is the title?
Sincerity...
Oh, Sincerity is Scary.
Okay, okay.
Okay, nice.
It's like jazzy-ish.
A little bit, yeah.
And a little vintage.
Yeah, it does, it does, it does.
It's pretty neat.
Yes, I love it.
I love it.
The smoothness of these voices.
Yes, yes, yes, I love it.
Have you heard Justin Bieber's new song?
Peaches?
Peaches, yeah.
I love it because he says Georgia all the time.
Yeah, right.
I got my peaches out from Georgia.
He's talking about the Georgia State, US when he says it.
Because Georgia is known for the peaches.
Yeah, actually I also googled, I googled, I didn't know Georgia was famous for the peaches.
So I googled about this relic and...
And you figured out it was, it's famous for the peaches, right?
15:01
Yeah, right.
It is, it is.
And he says that...
Georgia, yeah.
See, I love the...
I think it really has a similar kind of like echoing kind of like...
Yeah.
Like melancholy-ish kind of feel to it.
Yeah.
Not melancholy.
Did I say that right?
Melancholy-ish kind of taste?
Yeah.
Like echoing and...
Right, right.
Echoing, yeah, right.
The vintage-ish kind of like nostalgic-ish kind of taste.
Yeah.
But you know, the beat is kind of really modern in this song.
Like the kicks and...
It feels modern.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like...
Compared to the one before.
Right, right.
Okay, okay.
It's really modern, like hip-hop or R&B taste.
Okay.
Trotting.
Okay.
By the way, this is the song by Justin Bieber and Daniel Caesar and Juvion.
I like Daniel Caesar too.
