    Oh yeah, that's another rabbit hole lol. I think A432 could be good if, say, you're a singer and its more in your range. But when it comes to the actual temperament, unless you're an experimental musician, the whole push to switch to something other than equal temperament honestly makes little sense in the scale of western music. Although alternate tuning systems are really fascinating.

    The only thing worse than regular hippies are new age hippies.

    For those who don't get what I mean, the first video is authentic Chinese music, the 2nd is Chinese Orchestra (which musically more resembles western classical music than anything actually indigenous to China), and the 3rd is New Age stuff. You're way more likely to find the 2nd and 3rd, than the first. (Though, like I said, there are multiple reasons for that, some of them quite political.). And I'm not saying that liking modern Chinese orchestra or New Age music is invalid. I just hate how it's hard to find anything authentic, and all the stereotypes that get promoted. It's kind of like the musical equivalent of tourist-traps

    It's on one of Gokiburi's live distributed singles. That YT account is their guitarist's, and he posted a couple of demos that later became DK songs (namely, guitar and bass-focused instrumental versions of "Mugen Loop").

    I just know there are some indie vocalists who were notorious for being bad vocalists, who never improve. Namely: Saki from Cuartet (even though I stan him to death.) He actually almost sings worse in a way, since his backup vocals are always off tune now! That didn't happen in Cuartet, in Yuki Geshiki, he managed to stay on tune, although struggling to.

    I used to get called a weeb too. Eventually, I found a friend group that was basically a bunch of fellow weebs, and even though they weren't into Visual Kei, they were open enough to it. 
    Don't worry about bullies or anything like that. Anyone who calls you insults for liking what you like, just has poor taste lol.

    Back in highschool, I knew only one guy who knew about Vkei, and even though he wasn't a huge fan, he knew about Deathgaze because his cousin in Detroit knew about them. He also knew about the Piass and how cursed they were.

    Himeaimichu reacted to Zeus in They should feed an AI song-writing program a bunch of Visual Kei songs of each type,   
    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.

    When it comes to a lot of their classic stuff, there are no bad ones! I sadly can't say the same for the newer album (it's not horrible, just a really unexpected turn that is personally not my thing) but other than that, they used to consistently make bangers.
