[Feature] Compilation of known musical equipment used by sakanaction

Ever curious about the instruments and equipment the members of sakanaction use? Even if you can't play any musical instruments, you might have wondered once or twice while watching them perform.

Hence, this post will be a compilation of known instruments that the members use.

Important notes:
- It is not a complete list by any standards. Some instruments may not be current since the band is always updating their equipment.
- If you know of any, please share the information. If I find any more, I will add them.
- I don't have any musical background, so I'm not the one identifying the instruments. The sources can be found at the bottom of the article.

Feature: Go To The Future Minisite Translations

Well, I had some time to finally do this. Presenting... translations of the GO TO THE FUTURE Minisite!

Take note that the original text was in 2007 and whatever is translated here is of them and their feelings during then, so it may have changed. However, the self-liners gives a nice insight into the album.

(It is always difficult to translate Yamaguchi's complex written thoughts, so sorry for any translation errors.)

Feature: Who is Dutchman?

Before Sakanaction formed in 2005, vocalist/guitarist Yamaguchi Ichiro had been making music for years. And he wasn't alone. He was in a band called Dutchman for about 6-7 years.

Some may have heard of the name Dutchman from Wikipedia, or from Japan Times Online, some may not have heard of the name at all. Whichever it is, when I found out about Dutchman, I found it rather interesting and gone on to learn a fair bit after researching.

For the longest time I have wanted to share about Dutchman, because it is related to Sakanaction and I believe it will give people a new perspective on Yamaguchi. Thus, after starting this site not long ago, I've been writing this feature.
