I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

When a disaster occurs, you have to consider the possibility that lifelines will stop.

You might find that things you normally use—like water, gas, and electricity—are unavailable.

For example, what if you can’t use fire? Heating food and keeping warm could become difficult.

In that case, it might be a good idea to prepare firewood made from newspaper.

Tear newspaper into pieces, put them in a bucket with water, and break them down.

Wrap plastic wrap around a paper core, such as the core from plastic wrap or foil, and then wind the softened newspaper around it.

Remove it from the core and let it dry—your paper logs are ready.

They burn longer than regular wood and are light, so they’re easy to carry.

How to convert an AA battery into a D battery

There may be times when you need a size D battery but only have AA batteries.

For such situations, let’s learn how to turn a AA battery into a D battery.

It might sound tricky, but don’t worry.

Basically, you just wrap cardboard around the AA to make it the same thickness as a D battery.

You might even find this useful in everyday life.

However, this is only a temporary fix, so try it only when absolutely necessary.

By the way, you can make a size C battery this way too.
