- Hey Demon, what's with your bass today?!
- It doesn't have that sound at all.
- Oh, so they are a band.
- Seriously, you've got the Clay album which came out recently, don'tcha?!
- That's exactly why our music is getting nowhere.
- I don't really get what they are saying.
- So this is Harajuku...
- The music we're aiming for doesn't lie there, you know!!!
Quote:
- Originally, this street was the front road to Meiji Shrine which was built just before the end of the war; the area called Harajuku in the beginning was the north area of the shrine a little to the north; and this neighbourhood was called Onden. (I'm assuming that the particles で here are like だ, which is the most possible use I can think of among what I have learnt)
- Also, there's a river running by the side of the promenade. Now, let's try closing your eyes and imagine. The murmuring of the river and the tweets of small birds... Such scenery in those days will be brought back to your mind, right? This is the epitome of strolling in Tokyo. (this one isn't as tough as the previous one, but I think it's still better to try it as well)
I see no "Demon" in the original but you should know what you are talking about.
"It doesn't have that sound at all." >> "It sounded horrible."

You are right about the 「で」.
「神宮北」 is a proper noun but you tried to translate it.
"Epitome"? Maybe "real charm".
