my life just wouldn’t be complete without repetitive, catchy high-bpm melody lines, flamboyant horn sections and bVI - bVII - i chord structures. speed jazz fusions of these songs are generally even better!
in no particular order:
this channel has a whole bunch of half-hour long live touhou piano melodies that are quite good but which i am too lazy to go through and post (other people are welcome to, though):
so, like, on the one hand: a bunch of dudes wearing fedoras, headphones and kimonos are playing music from a doujin game while a guy with a sack on his hand dances in the background
I can’t get over sack dude. Why is he there? Is he the hype man? The mascot? Why a sack? What does his face say? Is it the same guy every time or is this some kind of new ritualistic sacrificial ceremony to help produce a good recording? The world needs to know.
Sin sack is for sinners. (literally 罪 = tsumi = sin) It’s a meme. It has never made sense. Blame IOSYS. I want to say it came from that one really dumb music video they made but it probably predates that…
If I had to describe IOSYS these days, it’s “Technically very competent, but honestly kind of boring.” Not bad, but certainly not trying to break any ground.
