quickie question for hennies in the know - can mejibray mgmt pull a reverse cali≠gari expedition and hire two noname bandomen*, call them Tsuzuku™ and Koichi®, and thus restart the abandoned act?
I feel like this scene lacks a good summer shitstorm this year and I'm not getting my glee from iT.
*idk think Ice and w/e ex-pregnant ex-melvel novelty decides to worm their way back into the scene

dreamt that Deg are releasing two PVs for the coming album, first video was a very dark black and white one with a slow and heavy a.f. instrumental (kinda like sludgier and grittier blossoming belzebub), the other one had a CM with fifteen seconds of kyo screaming his lungs out over tibetan bowl/windchime interlude
I literally didn't listen to their output post-WTD more than a few times, and def not recently, but my subconscious is telling me it's time to start stanning again i guess?????? idk I'm so confused
(it's the first music-related dream I'm having in a very long time and I am, like, very shook!!!)

I hated mejibray while they were around but i need those two rats to come up with a ZORO knock-off, like, right now
my vk techno cravings are in for summer

what are the odds of gurugamesh pulling a comeback if mediocre indie wonder nana reformed after some of its members went onto having major label careers (and flopped at it but w/e)
on that note I'm also curious what's Ryo up to
-
i kind of feel like danger crue isn't the type of label that would be happy about that tbh
ryo is getting his teeth fixed, gaining some ex-bandman weight and doing production stuff. mostly for lynch. but i think he's working with dezert and maybe fest vainqueur too. https://www.instagram.com/ryo_trackmaker/

before this place has an opportunity to explode in another sales related shitpost - Maroon 5 bassist was arrested for selling cocaine, this market has never been about living off CD revenue even at the peak of their market sales, this can be extrapolated further but holy shit, your scene has fallen out of vogue and music market stagnation (coupled with stagnant local economy) is not helping it, like deal with it without screaming bloody murder all over the board onegai—

i actually got at statistics i wanted to see with part 2 of my post about piracy in visual kei which you sum up nicely. we don't actually know how many people spend money on buying releases but out of everyone that took the time to vote in my topic (which locks at the end of the month), a whopping 75% of them have bought or continue to buy music in addition to pirating what they can't afford. this is a very small sample size (n=36) but even out of that number, a quarter of them said they buy everything they can.
if this market has never been about living off CD revenue, and the way that most international vk fans can support their favorite artists is by buying their CDs, then i think we're already doing a lot as a group. chasing the most ideal outcome may not even be possible.

there's more to vk community than mh users too.
vk is also different from traditional western music market in a sense a minority of this scene is actually educated in music or outright bought their careers, but they still can get relatively successful without marrying into money or w/e through having a host-club/barmen side-gig, essentially drawing in more fans for what they do on stage.

2018 already seems like the most fruitful year for a "heaux why is you here again" VK award fest, my nominations would be:
- Kyotaro coming back with that shit new band
- DAV (if it finally happens~)
- miyavi desu
- random vagerke dude floating back to life in a female fronted CoMeDy BaNd (that doesn't even sound too embarrassing but still like... ew...)
- persistent XXS-size chanteuses microheadphones
-×××sAtSuKi rOcIeL×××
- Airo (Under Fall Justice) solo project
- I feel like hibari sort of deserved a mini-award of his own but idk liquid might be decent at the end
you are encouraged to post additional suggestions below x
