Possible Japanese Project & future releases

[hellozq]

Yesteray I emailed Heiko to say happy birthday to Jade.And I also asked something about Jade.
According to the reply from Heiko,currently Jade is working in the studio with Geo for another project that needs to be finished in September.
Let's guess,what it will be?JV project or a brandnew one like ETERNITY?
Let's wait together to see how it goes!

Nem-edit: Let's use this thread to discuss all the future releases

[Dreamquake]

Wow! Another project? I'l ASSUME Jade Valerie, but who knows! I wonder if they'll re-use the whole ETERNITY thing? I hope so, cause I love that album! I probably liked Jade Valerie 'project' more though, songs were so deep and personal. Bittersweet Symphony is SUCH a masterpiece.

From what I know it shouldn't be a Jade Valerie project Which again doesn't necessarily mean it's an ETERNITY one either.

Jade Villalon, sweetbox, Jade from sweetbox, MCY feat. JADE, Jade Valerie, ETERNITY what's next?
I don't know any other artist with so many names! Jade already has 6! WOW! Next will be GUREEEENUU?
I just don't understand why they keep making new projects, why don't they just promote at least one of their previous more?
I'm 99% sure that they'll release new project with tiny promo, then probably abandon it and begin another one... Maybe they are getting more profit from so many projects under different labels? I completely don't understand.

But TBH I don't really care... lol Cause as long as Jade release music and no matter under what name I'm HAPPY.

The problem with these projects is that each of them are probably made for a certain type of sound, ex. one for popular music, one for more emotional stuff, one for classical music, and it means that on the average cd, we won't have the diversity we were used to with Sweetbox and JV. I liked the fact that on a Jade cd, the songs go from classical, to popular music, to dance, to pop, to ballads, to acoustics, and each song was really different and under a different genre. But lets face it, the Eternity cd was all the same exact genre pretty much, just the songs were either slow or upbeat. And I think that's how these cd's are going to be from now on with each project focusing on a different sound.

I just don't know why they don't feel they can keep the diversity all in one project. They don't need to 'dumb it up' for people who aren't intelligent enough to enjoy a cd of variety, they need to stand out and make their own standards in music. That's what they did with Sweetbox, and thats why with Sweetbox, although not the most stardom band in the world, they had an exclusive niche that everyone seemed to recognize. If you wanted to listen to experimental classical pop, you listen to Sweetbox, and that was that. With work, Jade Valerie could have built the exact same fan base, with maybe even a bigger one, as JV put a 'popular music' touch to the experimental style. But I truly feel that other projects just won't become successful.

So now I am sure this isn't an ETERNITY 8 project either- the next album should be released in Summer 2010.

Hmmm interesting! Can't wait to hear more about it! Thanks for letting us know!

[Cook]

Another project? well, i don't really care xD Jade is always Jade, that's the important

[PrincessaLola]

Another project? well, i don't really care xD Jade is always Jade, that's the important

I agree...Jade is Jade and thats all that matters!

[Vhazza]

I have to agree with Taotrac. It feels a little worrying that there's not one solid project that they are focused on but are jumping round like this. But I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens...

We don’t know anything yet so no need to worry about it now.

[John]

I agree that I would have preferred them to just stick with the JV name/project, but Eternity is a nice alternative (Eternity's music could be all classical-sampling, JV's could be more optional classical-sampling - if that's how they plan it). But I'm sure that there's loads of info that we don't know about the projects so it's harder for us to understand their reasoning.

But this could maybe be a rather small 'project' like a collaboration (like Crush & You Don't Know Me) or a compilation album project (like LA LA LA LOVE SONG). We'll just have to wait & see.

[Alucard]

But I truly feel that other projects just won't become successful.

Sadly... but same here...
Sometimes it looks like they just dig their own grave with all their projects. Yeah, we should wait and see but releasing another project without any promo is just pointless IMO.

[KremlinChaos]

Wow, they must be really busy lol.

[Jayme]

Personally I find this many projects as ridiculous as the many Sweetbox compilation albums.

I mean, it's great that they're producing great music (I've slowly warmed up to the Eternity album) but like John said, we'll have to see how it turns out. It could just be a small mini-album or something. I would prefer they do songs like they did with BSS and OOTB though.
