Aither is an idol group consisting of two former members of B Flat and Party Rockets and one former member of pramo.  They formed in June 2013, are managed by Deja Vu and are named after a Greek god.  I blogged about them here.  On April 26, 2014 Aither added two more members, Megumi and Sakura.  Officially they were known as Aither-Five, although their third CD still credits them as Aither on the cover.  On July 2 Megumi left and then on July 5 Sakura left, both of them in order to focus on school.  Aither announced that they would be releasing a CD on a major label in 2015.  

Konno Yuuka quit the group on October 9, 2014 claiming that she was not paid for ten months and was mistreated by Aither's management.  Aither continued as a duo until it was announced on November 27, 2014 that the group would be breaking up on December 29.

NEKO, welcome to H!O.  Wow, I can only vote for one song?  This will be tough!  I have to think about this.  

 

Originally when I put "爽" in Google Translate I got "Cool", but now I'm getting "Refreshing".  Weird.

[NEKO (Suwano Chibineko)]

Sorry but due to an allegation (not by the ofiice but other) I've closed these 10 videos and will swap to another ones later. Pls be patient.

[I ♥ Miyoshi Ayaka]

Today's gets courtesy of my friend NEKO!   

 

 

 

The CDs are encased in a cardboard "envelope".  One of them is autographed by all three members.  The photo is also autographed.  I edited the top off because my real name is there.  Yes, I got a personalized autograph from Aither!  Chibineko-san is the coolest guy in Japan for doing this for me!

Damn ..

I'm getting interested in them, thanks to NEKO's videos. Lots of cool lives.

I'm a fan of the 7 ex B flat and never understand why Airi didn't join PartyRockets until I read your blog. I'm not sure what's wrong with Party Rockets but they're not Party Rockets anymore right now. I think I'll be following Aither more, I like their songs.

I really love ｷﾐの涙はﾎﾞｸの哀しみ ｷﾐの夢はﾎﾞｸの希望, is there a way I can buy their single digitally?

[I ♥ Miyoshi Ayaka]

Keep in mind this was a gift, because I was the only one who bothered to blog about Aither and create a thread for them.  I was also the first person to write about Party Rockets too, back in June 2012, two weeks before their live debut and six weeks before they released a single.  Of course, I have deleted my old blog and with it all the proof of what I am saying.  As for downloading, I'm afraid Aither's second CD is only at venues and not for download.  Your best bet, short of traveling to Japan and picking up a copy yourself, is to hope and pray that someone uploads a CD rip.       

 

I think Party Rockets has dropped the ball myself, especially since four girls left altogether, three of them in the space of six months.  Koume, Hiyori and Yuuka were my favorites in Party Rockets and now all three have left.  Party Rockets have released three singles in 18 months with a total of seven songs to their recorded credit.  Aither have recorded eight songs and have performed a ninth song live in the space of six months.  I think Aither are the more active group, hopefully with a more stable lineup.

Airi wrote about Aither having a one-man live in April.  http://ameblo.jp/ait...1744652735.html

[NEKO (Suwano Chibineko)]

It was announced that their 2nd single (normal version for retailers) will be released on 22nd/Jan. Which I believe will be available also in US via net. Pls hold on a while.

It's easy for me to upload the ripping technically, but i don't intend to violate their copyright.

 

Thanks for watching Unoffcial Channel.

Since end Dec., I've uploaded their live videos by splitting in each song.

Pls vote good (or bad which i don't prefer... ) or comments on any songs you like/dislike so that i will be able to provide a ranking chart.

[I ♥ Miyoshi Ayaka]

I'm not good with uploading and seeding torrents, as I tried a couple times recently.  I don't want to violate any copyright either.  I'm glad their second single is being released to the general public now.  I have ordered the first single, but it is temporarily out of stock for 3 or 4 weeks, so I won't get it until February.  

 

I was wondering why you split the videos up.  I kind of like the whole live as one video myself.  

[NEKO (Suwano Chibineko)]

Sorry for your inconvenience.

If you choose and play from the toppage, then the video plays consequently to next track almost seamlessly as far as the order of my upload follows the one in the live stage.

Pls try and feedback.

[I ♥ Miyoshi Ayaka]

Yuuka blogged about the nationwide release of "you & I".  http://ameblo.jp/ait...1755684904.html  I'm still not seeing this listed on CD Japan or YesAsia.  

[NEKO (Suwano Chibineko)]

May I start an internet CD shop of Aither and others?

May I start an internet CD shop of Aither and others?

 

That's up to you.  If you have CDs to sell, you'll have to let us know everything about it.  Prices, postage, and a website that has photos of what you have for sale.   

[melonpan♪]

I see Jurina of SKE in that first post..

Left to right in the photo in the first post: Misaki (ex-pramo), Konno Yuuka and Tsujimura Airi (both ex-B Flat and Party Rockets).  I don't follow SKE so I'm assuming Jurina looks like a member of Aither.  

[♦ AyakaMoon ♦♫♪]

Aither is coming to the USA at Idol Matsuri June 20-22 in Silverdale, WA! Please come and support them at their first live in the USA!
