Koyo Sonae
Recording Engineer of Sweetdream CD

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Jacqueline for her amazing generosity and great understanding of music production and recording arts. Her strong passion to create this concept album has furthered this project to an amazing level with no artistic compromise. Usually - no matter if it's recording or mixing - the engineer rarely gets an abundance of time to explore and find "the ultimate sound" in both performance and audio characteristics.

As an audio engineer who has also worked on contemporary urban music, involved with pitch-correction and rhythmic alignment (neither of which were used in this album), this project has definitely been an angel dream - purely pursuing music and sound quality and we believe that we have achieved our goal in this album.

During the 6-month recording period, we experienced "moments". What I call a "moment" in recording arts is a brief time period when the perfection of a musical performance is protected by an invisible shield. A moment happens only when every elements of the session is well prepared and everyone is extremely on the performance.
