  1. Is anyone here into traditional Asian clothes (such as the Cheongsam, Kimono, etc.)? Because none of my friends are really into it and I'd like to be able to talk about traditional fashion to someone who cares lol

  2. A friend just showed me 14th Generation Toilet Hanako-Chan, and she is almost everything I strive to be.

      Only, my music would be way more professional sounding, hopefully. And hopefully my screams are better lol.

      Oh wow she's actually amazing, thanks for mentioning her!!

      You're welcome! I absolutely love her aesthetic

  3. Happy Birthday!

  4. So apparently, they may start making THC infused monster drinks.
    Isn't that just Bhang for Kyles?

      I'll stick with the beer equivalent thank you.

  5. Does there exist a live recording of Ankoku Sekai wa Yami? I think that GossiP has their version on one of their live DVDs, but I don't think a proper live recording has been made of the main song with GossiP, Kuroyuri and Grieva

  6. I just checked out ヘクトウ and ロマン急行 and these guys, combined with Gulu Gulu, have restored my faith in Visual Kei.

    1. Euronymous

      Euronymous

      totally agree about ヘクトウ and ロマン急行 ,but gulu gulu i'm still not sure if they plan to become some kind of new KIZU/RSHITEI/ACME,it's not exactly something bad,but merry go round was so formulaic...i didn't expect that

    2. Himeaimichu

      Himeaimichu

      Even though Merry Go Round did sound a bit formulaic, it still sounded WAY better than the similar sounding stuff from other bands. Though I'm pretty sure that's just me being a total Ai fangirl lmao

    3. Euronymous

      Euronymous

      yeah,i got you,i feel like i'm going to support and buy whatever he may release lol

      but i really hope they go more for the ヘクトウ/ロマン急行/Inugami direction instead of those bands i mentioned above.

  7. No one:

    Vietnam during Tet:

     

  8. They should feed an AI song-writing program a bunch of Visual Kei songs of each type, and see if it can come up with the ultimate songs.

      @Zeus Oh wow, that's interesting. Do tell more!

      1. creating an AI to build music requires teaching an AI about music and music theory or else you're going to have an AI that smashes random notes together. that means having a solid understanding of major and minor chords, harmonic scales, time signatures, etc. and then being able to program it so that the AI understands it as well.

      2. it is easiest to teach AI music thru monophonic melody. most visual kei songs (most songs actually) are polyphonic. that means many melodies at once. simply giving AI an MP3 is not going to work because it's not going to understand how to separate frequencies and instruments. what i worked on accepted MIDI files as input, but as it would turn out...

      3. turning Mp3 into MIDI is not easy either! try one for yourself. the resulting MIDI is a discordant mess. this is because the conversion process loses a lot of information, and this is the information we want to teach our AI!

      4. need a good training set of data to begin "teaching" the AI about music. you will need hundreds of samples to get started. i used Bach since i had a training set already available to me. this would have to be replaced with visual kei melodies to achieve the desired effect.

      there are a few more but that's the issues i had.

    3. Himeaimichu

      Himeaimichu

      Ah. Yeah, the process seems kinda complex, though really intriguing. Thanks for sharing your experience!

  9. For my fellow Cuartet fans, Saki is starting to play in session bands again. 

     

  10. Can the members of Nicolas just go back to that traditional Japanese meets early 2000's Vkei shtick they had with JyuLie? The shit they made as JyuLie was really cool sounding and I wish there was more Vkei like it. 

  11. I fucking hate the fact that food companies don't have to specifically say what "natural flavors" they put in their shit. I found this really nice chai flavored protein drink, and it'd be perfect if it weren't for the fact it gives me an allergic reaction. The ingredients list is all stuff that's mostly benign and I'm not allergic to, so the only suspect is the "natural flavors". 

  12. Not long until the Gulu Gulu single is released!

  13. Did Kimi wa Surudoku ever even release anything as Kegare? I find it weird that a band that's been around since 2002 only started releasing stuff recently. I also hate that it has to be Karuna who hasn't released anything until recently, because I'm a hoe for Gill'e Cadith 

    1. Alkaloid

      Alkaloid

      They were on the "Hysteric Media Zone III" and "Public Ego Dance 001" omnibus but I think that's it.

    2. Himeaimichu

      Himeaimichu

      Ah, thanks! I'm able to find a rip of Public Ego Dance, but not Hysteric Media Zone. Do you perhaps know where one would be?

      Sadly I don't :c

      You're welcome! I hope everything is going well

  15. I sure hope Gulu Gulu opens a fanclub, because I'd definitely would join it.

  16. Apparently, Gulu Gulu is on some label called Hedo Records, according to their website

    1. sleepy coffee

      sleepy coffee

      new record label also 

  17. Even after this band fizzled into the nothingness, this song still fucking slaps.

      i love ai shinkirou by them! was going to embed youtube video but it was yours ww didn't know they had a pv...i find vocals questionable a bit but it's not bad, and their instrumentals are very pleasant.

       

    2. Himeaimichu

      Himeaimichu

      Yeah, Kurona was never the best vocalist, but he was a pretty good song-writer. I just wish this band released more beyond their first album. Lots of unreleased stuff they only played live lol.

  18. God GossiP's last album was so fucking good. I hope they come back soon. I need chaotic early 2000's tribute-kei in my life

    1. Manji 卍

      Manji 卍

      that album was a fantastic way to end the band's discography,every track is awesome

      i have the feeling that they will come back with the same lineup.

  19. How does one change their name on MH? I'd like to change my screen name to something better than my current one lol. 

    1. God

      God

      didn’t there used to be a thread for it?  maybe that was a long time ago.  also maybe i’m wrong. 😂

    2. Himeaimichu

      Himeaimichu

      @God There is a name change thread, but it's mainly for tracking the name changes of users so no one gets confused

    3. God

      God

      oh, that makes sense then.  my bad.

  20. I still can't determine whether I think the new Kiryu single is a nice throwback to their earlier history, 
    or I think that it's a sign that they're starting to run out of ideas. 

  21. I seriously wish AIKA didn't retire from the Vkei scene after Triggah. Does anyone know what he's even doing now? Last I heard, he still attended events relating to Dual Core Sound, but I believe Dual Core Sound isn't around anymore

      probably farming avocados

  23. I may upload some Memento Mori stuff in lossless soon. My partner has almost their entire discography (minus their full-length and their demo tape) 

    1. IGM_Oficial

      IGM_Oficial

      What? They have a demo tape?

    2. Himeaimichu

      Himeaimichu

      @IGM_Oficial It was called "Nigatsuyouka no Shitsumei" and was released some time in 2012, around the same time as Haikei Haranbanjou Biyori. It's extremely rare, and it never appears on sales or auctions, but it is confirmed to have existed. 

  24. I want to start using last.fm again, but I'd have to correct all my music tags. 

    ALL of my Vkei tags....

      mp3tag and tag scanner would be nice, if they made it for Android, since the bulk of my music is on my phone. 

      I'd totally like to use the script vk.gy has, but I don't know any android apps that'd work with it, since it's based from mp3tag

    3. Himeaimichu

      Himeaimichu

      Oh yeah, I used to have that app. The way it tagged album art was weird though. It'd always be compressed and if anything happened to the song file, the art would be gone. 

      Also, I have no idea if that's compatible with mp3tag scripts, since I trust the vk.gy tagging script. Other auto-taggers would wrongly tag my Visual Kei music. The auto-tagging software on the PC I use to rip music with thinks that a Kuroyuri to Kage single is Michael Jackson, and that Cuartet is the RnB group "Shai" lol

  25. The riff to the new Kiryu song reminds me of Ookami Shounen by Mi'ze:lia (one of Mitsuki and Takemasa's earliest bands)

    1. Peace Heavy mk II

      Peace Heavy mk II

      They're probably getting to the point where they need to subtly recycle things to keep up with their release schedule

    2. Himeaimichu

      Himeaimichu

      @Peace Heavy mk II Yeah, I noticed their stuff has been kind of a sample-fest lately. Muku was practically just them reusing the bridge to Meikyou Shisui to somehow connect to the chorus of Oboro.
