Not my kinda music, but you have a really early era Imogen Heap thing going on in your lower register to me that sounds nice completely unfiltered. Pop shield will definitely make a difference in quality.

When I didn't know anything got better than the 100kbps range in 2000s I didn't care cause I had no idea... Once I heard better though I could never go back. Like Kirito says, I want to hear as authentically as I can...exceptions being maybe noise music that is made to be over-processed and distorted, but for anything else I try to find at least 320. For songs I really enjoy and will hear over 10 times a week I rip/find lossless if I can. I'm pretty sure almost everyone can hear the difference between 128 and 320 though? One very clearly sounds like the singer is behind a wall or underwater, like the auditory equivalent of deep frying a jpeg full of artifacts, sure I can still see the image but why look that way when I can see it in HD. I can hear mosquitoes / the screeching the comes from electronics and electrical sockets that no one else around me hears, so I'm sensitive to frequencies / pitch and quality, and probably why I hate high treble or little to no bass. Trying to listen to my old music from 2000s ipod now gives me a headache after an hour because the quality is so bad, like 96-128 max. Same reason I can't listen to Spotify the quality is so ass it irritates my tinnitus and gives me a headache as well.

rough months virus even aside

Alright I was of the same opinion, not that I don't love it, cause I guess cause I enjoy Ai's voice with nothing behind it even- but I miss K's bass the most. Just a certain impact is missing, Disposable already said it best lol 'public domain' sounding. Given everything though I think it's definitely enjoyable and could've turned out waaay worse if it were a different band. 「」まっしろ to me just sounds like an orgy between 便所２ / 発狂のカルテ, their current circus kei flare and then with some MM sprinkles, but not in a bad way. I notice though in this album more so, and a bit in the previous releases, Ai is just tossing out the upswing moan/squeals in places where they don't really have as much impact as in KtK. I do hope they get (more) dirty / weird again. That all said I fucking love 火炎瓶 definitely my favorite want more of that, it's different enough to feel new but keeping their sound, actually wish it was longer. おやすみ real close second. Don't dislike anything.

For the first time in 11 years I confessed to somebody new, and for the first time ever it actually turned out in my favour, until I spoke a second time and was too excitedly passionate that instantly soured the entire exchange... I'm not even saying this bitterly...but genuinely laughing at how fast I can ruin a moment just by talking honestly.

Got Ravenclaw too...but in a forum of artists, art lovers & narcissists I think everyone would end up in it or Slytherin lol. Like how INTJ results are always skewed highly on foums.

Vin Diesel, Keanu, and Bruce Willis...Rock is pretty fun too.

video project i've been working on...normally I don't post that kind of thing but this is a lot longer than my first one in 2015 ( i don't know anything about video making ) song is 終末の果実 by Mandrake (early p-model) i posted in the what are you listening to thread.

"hmm haven't checked MH news in awhile wonder if anything interesting has happened"

again I've not drawn much big gaps between, but when I do I at least feel happier with being able to express what I see. Although now I am thinking I want to spend this free time learning the guitar rather than draw because I've always wanted to.

Yeah lol, thanks user xxRazorN1ghT34 for the mp3 titled "xh8HsajjepicComics" with album art of a jpeg webcam snap of an empty soup can, I will surely discover it....never... I didn't even use myspace because I was too antisocial even, then so nothing was ever saved and I had to search from a notepad list each time (cause I was dumb 😃)

For the most 200xs story: On a 16 bit top down RPG called Furcadia I had been playing since elementary where you could program your own maps / make your own pixel art and things I eventually made a friend from Singapore. She was super into Chobits and got me into it too, which led me searching for midis on those independent anime sites. Turned out one of them had an entire vkei section although I still wasn't quite sure what it was, just that I liked to hear it but I had no idea how to find more aside from slap words into the big search bar and click on every link displayed with varying degrees of success. Later an artist I started admiring through Neopets beauty contest I followed to Deviantart who would make dinky flash animations for humanized version of their pets, in one flash they used an acoustic version of Tsuki no Uta by Gackt, that led me on a wild search to find more where I ended up on French site radio.blog.club, it was somewhat like a very early spotify in that it built a list of songs you could play based on one artist or word search. (But sometimes you'd get really random shit and a lot of weird bootlegs), imeem was also similar but if someone didn't title / tag a track correctly you just had to guess what it was by the lyrics, to this day there's still a song I wish I could find all I remember is it said something like "ohh gambino" was kinda techno poppy and was probably some anime / H game OP but since Stylish Gambino exists...impossible to search now lol. We and especially kid me didn't have money to be ordering things in the mail back then except once a year through a magazine, so it wasn't until I was 16 or 17 I started being able to explore the world of online ordering. (Also like I just saw YuyoDrift mentioned TokyoPop was a big one, I'd go to read those at the book store.) Even though it's fantastic everything is so accessible now and easy to learn of any new music, there's a certain charm lost of finding some gem you have no idea what it is but it's amazing and you're determined to dig out more of it that leads you into a rabbit hole of mystery. Also there was a site around 2002-2006 that was very pink with a cabbit cursor and had some generic anime BG, they had a TON of hosted midis and scans of Sailor Moon / Tokyo Mew Mew, section dedicated to kaomoji, etc, me and my best friend spent an entire day trying to find what it was called / if it still exists but we can't remember, don't know if anyone else does. Even way-back machine couldn't help

here there's no toilet paper, no cleaning supplies...line of biggest super market wraps around the building just to get in. only plus is all my friends around the world are off and we can all spend time together on games.

it is very difficult to talk like a 16 year old who just read dostoevsky for the first time in a second language so good for you, but still not gonna buy eau de retsu

shut up about corona virus. walk outside "did you know" walk into another room "hey c-" enter building "HEAR ABOU-" bring up completely unrelated topic "lately I sa-" shut up 🤸‍♂️

If the quality wasn't rendered into complete shit I like it...just sounds something like a NIN song. But that simulated popping is the worst fucking thing it irritates my tinnitus and I can only imagine how awful it'd sound when played through anything with a built in EQ...Kyo drowning at the bottom of the ocean ft drum synth. If everything is made to sound that shitty purposefully then there's no way I'll be able to enjoy the rest of it, even if without the Silent Hill radio static I'd definitely be more interested than I was with Infinitum.

...Huh...not what I was expecting either, but everyone was begging them to leave clownkei lol . I think I would dig it if they actually WERE wearing cowboy hats but right now it feels like 2000s anime RP forum avatar kei, think it's that specific hair color..

Not to derail but one more positive chime in for xLIZ4, even though I only bought one thing, it was something that could easily get lost or damaged in long transit but arrived very safely. I agree though...it's best to accept the fees are inevitable for good service without friends, hell I hate going to the post here... I'd sure have fees.

For me the best part is 3:25-3:40, the rest sounds like a pop rock song I'd have to keep thumbing down on Pandora. Vanitas was the only track I deleted so it's not surprising I don't like this. If that's what they wanna do then good for them, but between this and...whatever engrish radio pop hell that is going on in the other previews like Lament that's the nail for me. Tick Tak does have some old Gackt feeling, but if he doesn't drop his voice enough it won't be the same.

OCR is awesome! In 2003/2005 that was one of the the only places I knew how to get different music. I don't know if you're only looking for metal/rock remixes but if not, there are so many good EDM/chip/orchestral/w/e mixes...I'm sure it's half painted by nostalgia for me, but here's a handful I can remember new & old if you want: FF "Magicite Made My Mind Melt" FF "Day of Ruin" (Infected Mushroom-esque) Street Fighter "Cobetcknn Kocmohabt" Drakengard 3 "Ignus" System Shock "Digital Horrors" FF "Dancing Madly (First Form)" (Was one of my favorites) Phantasy Star "Wanta Phanta"

I was only hoping for at least 青の世界 to be something interesting since it's one of my favorites... but I think I'm actually more interested in DEG & Der Zibet's..also that just one more kiss damn.........ouch that's bad..

Yeah dunno what they mean by American rock lol, so far it sounds like it could've been off any of the 2007-2012 albums, especially Memento Mori ...all I care is that maybe they tone the treble of the digital sounds back, for me it was overbearing in the latest albums.
