Music

Ok... In my past experience this kinda thread never lasts long...

There was a day when I watched an ep of .hack//SIGN on CN.
I liked the story... sure, not much action, but i didn't mind.
(I still haven't finished it, for lack of even basic cable and that
anime DVDs are expensive)
In any case, on to my real point. I fell in love with the music in
.hack//SIGN. I got the soundtrack, and Yuki Kajiura became my
musical goddess. lol

Kajiura is probably the one that introduced me to more anime,
cuz I went looking for more stuff done by her. Let's see, how did
it go... (Madlax, Noir, Mai-HiME, Tsubasa Chronicle, Elemental "Gelade"
(Liked "Gerad" better...), Mai-Otome) And absolutely loved Akatsuki no
Kuruma in Gundam SEED.

Who else, oh, Yoko Kanno! Wolf's Rain, Cowboy Bebop, GitS:SAC....
Love it.

And no... I haven't ignored the OP and EDs. While songs by See-Saw and
FictionJunction would fall under Kajiura, I like the songs by KOTOKO and
I've Sound.

Before this gets too long and I run out of things to say, I'll let you all keep
the thread moving. Music (or lack of) is a key part of anime. You can't
ignore it! ^^

Asian Kung-fu Generation, Le~Arc~en~Ciel, T.M. revolution, SEE-SAW, and the woman that sings the 4th ending theme of inuyasha ^_^

KOTOKO (does music for a ton of dating sims), Ali Project (good music, a little too gothic lolita for my tastes), and Triomatic (I'll give you a hint: Mahoromatic ending) are all good.

If you like KOTOKO, I highly recommend all the other artists from I've Sound.

Those artists seem to be moving out of the dating sim world and into anime. Kawada Mami's Hishoku no Sora from Shakugan no Shana, and Eiko Shimamiya's Higurashi no Naku Koro ni from... Higurashi no Naku Koro ni! XD;

At Anime Expo 05, I saw KOTOKO in concert. I had never heard of her at the time, but I love the catchy trance tunez. ^^

brougeXP22 · September 30, 2006, 09:56:36 PM

SleepyD · September 30, 2006, 09:57:53 PM

yay! I kinda wish my first con experience was in a small con. I was so lost and confused. lol

Where/when is animemazment? I don't think I've heard of that one... google doesn't seem to give me much info...

To stay somewhat on topic,
I missed the Yuki Kajiura Concert by 1 year! AX04. ;_;

(in case you haven't figured it out,
<---this guy == crazy Kajiura um... fan. boy? XD;)

Uhh.... I dunno, it came to mind at random. Police talk maybe? ^^

....*attempts to stay somewhat on topic*

You know how people wave around lighters at concerts? At the KOTOKO concert, during a piano interlude and the subsequent slow song, people waved around cellphones. Having never seen this before, I found it quite amusing and pulled out my cell with everyone else. ^^ (I even spotted a PSP. lol)

That reminds me of the time my history teacher and several other teachers impersonated the Beatles at a school assembly. So many memories...

SleepyD · September 30, 2006, 10:19:48 PM

That reminds me of the time my history teacher and several other teachers impersonated the Village People at a school rally. So freakin funny...

Really they did. I was laughing too hard to be able to do the Y-M-C-A arm movement thingys. lol

hard to keep this on topic. lol

Anime music plz to anyone else. The Original Poster requests it. ^^
