Voting post

There’s currently a 3-way tie!

I will be checking the results at 20:00 CEST. If there is still a tie by then, we will hold a runoff vote with just the top candidates and one vote per person.

Lemmyvision 3 announcement post

Post your favourite (or otherwise interesting) song in this thread!

Submissions have to follow the rules specified in the announcement. Instead of a specific language, all songs must be Vocaloid songs.
We will submit the song in this thread with the most upvotes in one week on Tuesday the 14th.

I've never done something like this before, but I thought I'd try it since I couldn't find anything in this style online. There's a few things I couldn't find out how to change (like the background color for the themes that aren't coal) and a few settings that I couldn't figure out what they changed so if you have any alternations you'd make please let me know, as I'm still not sure if I'm quite happy with it yet.

Since Fluxer HQ, which seems to be the only way to find communities at this point, isn't working currently: Do you have any recommendations for public communities to join? Currently just looking for any general communities with a decent amount of members to see how well it works

SciFi Mystery anime about Doppelgängers. There doesn't seem to be a release schedule other than that there's three episodes planned to release throughout the year. First episode looks pretty good though, so I'm looking forward to more!

I need to stop being a lurker

1: syudou - Call Boy

syudou 👍 but I think I prefer the vocal version for this one. The background vocals don't really fit the Vocaloid tuning in my opinion.

2: TOOBOE - utage.

TOOBOE is also consistently really good. While listening to them back-to-back I've noticed how similar his and syudou's styles are, which might explain why I like them both a lot.

3: Deco*27 - Ghost Rule

It's a classic for a reason. Very good modern Vocarock.

4: sasakure.UK - chimera

A hybrid Vocaloid/Singer song. The mixing is very unique in this one, because it's done in a way that you (or rather, I) cannot distinguish between the two voices, creating a new "voice" that's somewhere between the two. I really like it, though. Sounds very unique, but the two voices mix very well together.
The Annabel version linked in the description is really good too, and I think I still prefer that one, despite my compliments for this version.

5: Kikuo - Tunnel Adventure

Among the best Kikuo songs in my opinion. I like it when he does slower, more calm songs than his usual more frantic stuff. He shines in both, but these kind of songs sadly don't get as much attention as his other stuff. It's been steadily getting more common over the years though, so let's the what his next album will have in store for us.

I noticed my last post only got one upvote. How did that happen? Did none of you see it or was it just bad? Anyways, it explains the mod stuff (as far as I could) so go read that if you're wondering about it

I am mod now

1: Inabakumori - Lagtrain

One of the first Vocaloid songs I listened to. Still like it a lot. More than deserves the fame.

2: Omoi - Teo

I only discovered Omoi pretty recently but I love this song. Motivating in a kind of desperate way that I can relate to.

3: Hachi - Panda Hero

Yeah good song. Still wish he never went to Sony Music, but that's probably just me being bitter. Don't know if he'd actually be much different then.

4: Hanyu Maigo - Aunnobeats

I love traditional instruments in modern music. Also really like the melodies here, but I can't stop thinking about the stupid Among Us Trap Remix at 2:08

5: Neru - Nihilistic Rock

Strange how I only get the suicide content warning when viewing from Youtube directly and not through the Shuffler I use.
Anyways, it's about becoming an adult in today's society and and feeling the pointlessness of it all, which I think most young adults can relate to in some way. The guitar line is really good, but that is to be expected of Neru.

About the mod thing: I just kinda woke up a few days ago and saw the mod options appear when checking Lemmy. Hisao (old mod and founder of this community) seems to have deleted their account. The other new mod is @hitagi@ani.social, who may or may not know more than me.

I, for one, don't plan on doing much. The community's not very active anyways. If I ever come across anything completely unrelated to Vocaloid or anyone being an ass or a creep I might delete their post (if I remember I'm a mod by then), but I don't think I've seen anyone be like that here. You're all pretty nice :3

AaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAa

1: Hachi - Musunde Hiraite Rasetsu to Mukuro

I really like this kind of stuff, especially from Hachi. Wish he did more before fully switching to rock.

2: Nashimoto Ui - AaAaAaAAaAaAAa

My favourite song of his. I think the minimal tuning of Miku enhances this one a lot. The instrumental is also really good.

3: Iyowa - Heat Abnormal

This one got pretty popular so you've probably heard it already. I really like the core melody here but it gets a bit too high pitched for me personally during the climax, which I think says a lot considering I'm a Kikuo fan

4: Siinamota - Sore Wa Mahiro No Suisei

I don't think I've actually listened to this one since I added it to the playlist. Very calm compared to his other stuff; just as melancholic but with a touch of pleasant nostalgia. A bit more mainstream but still recognizable as Siinamota. I like it.

5: Harumakigohan - This Earth, for You

Very beautiful and calming. Exactly the vibes you'd expect from the title. Really like this one. Another song I don't think I've listened to since I put it in, but I think if it pops up on my recommended I'll click on it more often now.

I don't know if I've been getting unlucky with the shuffle or if my playlist is just smaller than I thought but these past few weeks I've had to sort out a lot of repetitions. I think I'm gonna start allowing multiple songs from the same artist again if I have a lot of songs from that artist in the playlist.
(You can also always leave recommendations for me to put in. My taste is pretty broad so don't be afraid to post about your niche favourites)
