Retrieved 2010-02-01.〕 Rendezvous differs from many other contemporary electronic acts by the fact that their music is actually played and recorded live on analog instruments, rather than produced digitally on computers and digital instruments. This analog approach to music is reflected upon their music, expressed with a warm and enveloping sound, which the band prefers over today's colder, stricter and less round sound. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rendezvous (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
