@Gao I feel like the music I like's given me some serious brain rot... The songs are pretty good, but too calm for me to enjoy ;_;

@Peilonrayz OK, how about this

Was the song the Demon Slayer intro?

yep, originally sung by LiSA

lol, I thought I'd seen GARNiDELiA before... I have Poppin' Trip in a playlist, along with a couple from Kyokiranbu

Is GARNiDELiA a virtual artist? What would make someone a VA?

oh no she is not a virtual artist. i'm just posting songs that I am currently listening to

haven't found a virtual artist who could sing at the level of GARNiDELiA yet

What is a virtual artist: audiohype.io/resources/…

@Gao Ah TY so basically vocloids... but not using a trademarked name

VA is just a persona driven by a team to cope with demands and tend to be more commercially-oriented

more like idols in some sense i guess

I'm not massive into the animeesque music so you probably have already seen the artist. But you'd probably like Eve

@Gao Ahhhhh, ok a bit of a difference to what I was thinking. Thanks

yea i used to just think VA = vocaloids lol

@Peilonrayz ahh one of the EDs of Chainsaw man, it's good

Wait... chainsaw man ending?! I didn't even know XD

> CHAINSAW MAN / ENDING THEME

I didn't know either. There's one ED song for each episode, too numerous and not repetitive enough for me to remember

I hope GARNiDELiA does another theme song for the irregular at magic high school again

@Gao My favourite VA is probably Nanahira... but I only really listen to songs she didn't produce

@Peilonrayz i rarely listen to this type of song, maybe except if it's touhou

some of them sounds like they're from osu!

my favorite loli-voiced touhou remix:

@Gao Kinda funny how small the world is so I wouldn't be surprised :)

@Gao I used to listen to ShibayanRecords a little while ago, 6 years or so ago. I really liked the music. I feel like I've heard listened to the song before... but 3 years ago doesn't add up

@Peilonrayz it is a remix of their song which is itself a homage to another band, so you probably heard either one of the three

@Peilonrayz any recommendation so i don't have to try out blindly?

@Gao Hmm, I probably listened to the original LOVE song

@Peilonrayz I listened to all three and liked the remix the most

@Gao Sure, a cover, an original and a colab.

@Gao I don't know what "a homage to another band" is, do you have a link?

Also going through songs... I've only just realized how much Spotify has screwed me out of seeing new releases from artists I like. >:(

@Peilonrayz i swear i have it bookmarked long ago but i didn't categorize it so it'll be a hard find, but I remember from the album cover to the melodies are copied from those of another band

@Gao No worries. I never bookmarked a Utsuho Reiuji song which has a very distinct nuclear warning sound. I tried finding the song again, and never could ;(

@Peilonrayz googled it again and found this: touhoudb.com/Al/2628, but it didn't specify the song and do some analysis like the post i bookmarked years go

Huh, the song links here as the original... but idk the two songs don't sound very alike. Or at least the parts of the new song I like in LOVE don't seem to appear in the 'original'

As with many Touhou fan-made songs, they don't sound at all like the original they're based on, and this one is based on a Touhou song + a Noisia song

@Peilonrayz 🤝

@Peilonrayz ...wait how did i miss that cover existing for a whole three weeks what the hell

i have failed

just as a person

granted the original doesn't even make my top 5 nanaoakari songs but still

@Gao anyways if you want to hear something specifically touhou, this one's a classic

and i've also been really hooked on these two lately
