Post-up the third
Still being blasted around by Madoka Magica like a ping-pong ball in a trampoline factory. Go and watch this show, right now.
As for the Vocaloid Music, sorry for the delay, real life crept up behind me with blackjack and coursework. But first, a Public Service Announcement.
Hopefully this should clear up any confusion on this particular matter.
Quite a few these two weeks - again, sorry for the delay, I fail at time keeping.
Top on my list is this cover of Marionette Syndrome (by Scop), as performed by ASK. For the curious, the original Miku version can be found here. ASK's cover is a lot more emotive, and maybe I'm just getting a little tired of constantly hearing Miku singing everything (it's not that she's bad, it's just that people use her for [i]everything[/i], even when another Vocaloid might be better suited to the role) but I find this cover works much better than the original. Combined with an awesome backing track (it's [i]Scop[/i]) and the always fun bonus of social commentary, and you have a winner.
Next up, another stellar Twins duet, From a Place You're not There (KeaP), telling a sad tale of twins separated by a magic mirror and still trying to contact each other. Piano and string instruments provide the backing, while the twins float their way through the song. Beautiful, but sad listening.
Big Al, you can never be too big.
Another ethnic Kaito track, Houraika (Winter Daphne) from てかＰ with accompanying PV. Wonderful strings and Kaito coding, and the PV tells a sad tale.
One of the many, many Magnet covers out there, this one stands out from the crowd by including... well, everyone. At the time that it was made. Voca-chorus, for the win!
