At least there's some Kaito and Miku to keep some balance in your collection.

So, for curiosity's sake, is anyone making a MikuExpo bingo sheet? I might be willing to if I'm not swarmed with exams.

If you're over the age of 14 and still like the kagamines and (this is the part where you pay attention fellow anons) you **still** act obnoxious about it, you're the problem. Don't be the 24 year old at MikuExpo screaming with teens about how you want to suck Len's dick/pet Rin's hair/ship the twins/whatever the hell cancerous Kagamine fags do. Try to make yourselves decent this year. Pic related.

Oh, I agree, but I think that goes for any other vocaloid fan too. Actually, any fandom in general.

All of the cancerous vocaloid fans I've seen IRL have been of the screaming teenage girl (and rarely, boy) variety. Len fans are usually the worst at that though, I'll give you that.

What's a miku expo bingo sheet?

>>14866590
It's a thing where anons print out the sheet and then you cross off horrible/good things you experience from your mikuexpo experience. It would be fanmade so there are no prizes.

>>14866605
For what it's worth, I would love to do that, given all the horrible shit I had to see in new York.

Do it for me, anon, do it for all of us.

Oh Hell Yeah, I dunno if you went to the 2014 NYC Friday concert but the dude in the pic I posted in >>14866752 had a buddy dressed as Miku but he was thin.

Also the IA concert last year there was a dude dressed as ONE but at least he was in good shape but too masculine to pull off dressing as ONE.

There will never be a mikgazer 2 will there.

I don't understand crossplay, other than as a homosexual thing.

You'll probably have to find it used on Yahoo Auctions or Mandarake since it was released so many years ago. Personally I'm waiting on GIFT to make Luka, Len, and Rin V4 plushes since they already made Miku, Kaito, and Meiko V3 ones already.

>>14880221

I have only a fraction of the albums on the list but I compiled what I have together into on file then zip them. Problem is it's almost 1.5 Gigs and uploading it is taking a while. Would Skype work?

If you want any of those albums that are not found on mikudb, let me know and I'll see if u can upload them later.

SF. In all honesty I'm not scared since I waited in line at LA MikuExpo and not once did anyone try to do anything nasty/touch me/ etc. A few people talked to me but it was nothing more than small talk. If you don't have social anxiety, you'll be just fine. And if you do have social anxiety, you'll probably be fine. Just don't look like you'll shoot up the place and you'll be set.

thanks for the article!

>>14886599

Well for the first show in NYC Itoh was there and they did a lot of filming. I didn't know there was a concert that year so I bought my ticket at the last minute and had to stand in the General Admission floor. Being short I couldn't see past several people so I had to view the concert from the tv screens which defeats the whole live concert vibe. It was fun and full of energy overall.

>>14886599
It's just as exciting as any other mid-sized concert, except with vocaloid music.
So to say, it depends on how much you enjoy the concert going experience in general.

>>14883316
I went alone last time, and it was still a blast. Once the lights go out and the concert starts, it doesn't really matter how many people there you do/don't know.


On that note though, is anyone going to the LA show interested in splitting the cost of a hotel room?

I think my Google-fu is weak but I can't find any full articles or professional works that portray Vocaloids in a generally negative light
Like, people will bring up that Miku sounds like babbling birdchirp but they always heelturn and talk about Vocaloid being great in general
Aren't there any professional luddites?

I'm fairly sure there's professional artists that have made known their own negative opinion with regard to the software's interface, particularly during its earliest iterations.

As a whole though? Vocaloid is not a bad solution for the missing vocalist / low budget situation. The domain is also pretty much used to ad hoc methods and tool mix and match for the most part.
I think during one of kz's interviews, he described it as a creative hub - frankly that's pretty much self evident with the variety of media it's acquired in the past 9(?) years.

Probably the best you'll find is some archive of some worthless punk vocalist, moaning about how it's taking their jerbs and "that's horrible!" - then promptly curling into a corner after the twitter army goes off and makes them realize how pathetically insignificant they are.

I used to be super into Vocaloid from about 2008 to 2013. I kept up with all the new song releases and everything but I just fell out of the loop with it and stopped enjoying it as much. Now I'm starting to like it again but feel so behind on everything. What would you guys say are the best new songs that I've probably missed out on in this time frame?

No, nobody's getting any action. I'm just trying to put this trip together on a shoestring budget.
I've met other anons before and they've all been fairly normal people, so I'm not really worried about that.

Also, the room has 2 separate beds. We won't have to be cuddle buddies or anything.
It's only half a mile from the venue as well, so travel is very convenient.

>>14896233
You should still go anyway. Concerts are one of the funnest things you can go do, with or without friends.
You could always try to make friends there, too. I'm kind of an autist, but the people in line next to me were still talkative and nice regardless.

Guys, I'm looking for a particular Miku song I heard a few months back, I believe it was called Melody, but I haven't found it under that name recently, all I remember is that is was a slow song with what I think are saxophones in the backing track, with the words 'itsumo demo" repeated as part of the chorus.

Trying to find this song is driving me insane.

>>14903346
Nothing comes to mind, but try searching YT/nico with "初音ミク いつまでも" and a bunch of songs with itsumademo (I think that's what you mean instead of itsumo demo) come up. I listened to some of them but can't tell if it's the song at all.

>>14903346
On top of what anon suggested, if you really can't find it, check all the links over there too : https://www.google.co.jp/#q=www5+%E5%88%9D%E9%9F%B3%E3%83%9F%E3%82%AF+%E3%81%84%E3%81%A4%E3%81%BE%E3%81%A7%E3%82%82

alright, so after some scouring, the USA expo coming up isn't going to be english vocaloid is it? please tell me not...

>>14905776
They will mostly likely play a few shitty english songs but most of them will be in japanese.

>>14905786
thank you for averting a crisis i was about to have tonight. I feel better now. Have you been to an expo stateside? If so, the energy and what not, are there cheers and all of the usual Miku experience, or is it a bit different. I feel like i'm either going to be really impressed or have an incident of paris syndrome.

I have a special request.

fatmanP is one of my favorite artists but as everyone knows he disappeared. I love his Shoegaze works and particularly I've always liked this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMFWzjnDej0 of him. The voice is a sample and I'd like to know the name and where I could find it. Typing the lyrics doesn't help at all.

I've been curious about it since another Vocaloid artist used it recently (SyNERGy-STyLE VOL.5 (disc 2) track 7).

All the sudden additions of city's makes me wonder how much planning actually goes into these shows.
I don't follow concerts much but it seems like there'd need to be a lot more running around to do other than just booking a place a few months in advance, but I guess I just have no clue.

>>14908310
Maybe they originally asked more cities but then were denied at first, and now they're being accepted again. I have no idea either but that's my guess.

This english song is part of the track list but I personally like it a lot actually.

at the first LA expo they had wowaka and hachi selling their cd/signing autographs at the sega booth. Second expo they had 1 producer there but i forgot the name. I dont know if anyone will be there for the next one, if they dont announce any pre-event activities this time around id assume not.

IA's game and the EP came in today. Glowstick I guess is still in shipping

Sorry guys I am just getting into this, and I just found this and it is fucking amazing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-o_bMkzOW0

I love everything about it, but I especially like the vocals. I didn't know vocaloids could sound so good, a few years ago it was very obviously machine-like and I wasn't really into it. The part where it goes "knock out, gimme gimme" just harmonizes with my brain somehow in addition to being very cute and jpop-like.

I also like the electro/pop/dance/rave blend the song has going with the prominent synth and drums and catchy structured vocals. I'm shit at pinpointing genres but I guess it's not house, trance nor anything progressive.

Sorry if it's frowned upon here but can anyone recommend more Vocaloid electronic dance music like this? Where would I start?

>>14914044
you can start by going through giga-p's mylist ect and see if you like any more of his music

You could start by actually listening to vocaloids, reol is a prominent cover artist of vocaloid songs. Vocaloid can still sound very human-like though.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hNpxi0N-2U
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PG9OZrWgKM

But yeah, GigaP is a good place to start for this type of music. Also look up HachioujiP and the circle P∴Rhythmatiq on vocadb

>>14914044
>I didn't know vocaloids could sound so good
Probably because it isn't a vocaloid singing.

I'm just getting into Vocaloid stuff thanks to a weeb friend. I think I like Luka, Lily, & GUMI the most, which is not to say I don't enjoy the others when used well.

Are there any recommendations for duos or group songs that feature one or more of these three?

Proxy is always an option but it's not cheap.

Hi anons. So I asked vitagen about this, but only a few responded.

Confession:
I love Miku's design, but I don't know any of her songs except Two-Faced Lovers.

I'm planning on buying one of the Project Diva games on the Vita, but I'm not sure which one I should buy.

So a few questions:
1) I saw the imgur picture that has the recommended songs. Which one between F and F 2nd has more of those songs (I know that each Project Diva has a different tracklist from the previous one)?
2) I wanna play a shit ton of Miku dress-up. Which one has the better costumes (i.e. more kawaii or lewder = better)

Thanks for helping a Miku newfag anons.

>>14923335
2nd is way cheaper so just get that

That imgur rec guide is for albums, not songs. It's also missing a good deal of important albums/producers, but that's inevitable really.

As for what game you should get, it doesn't really make a difference (especially since you'll likely end up getting both of them if you enjoy it). Look up the song lists and search for the songs on youtube, pick the one you like the most overall.

>It's also missing a good deal of important albums/producers, but that's inevitable really.

well, i would like to be able to revamp the list a little if I can. what suggestions do you have?

>>14911326

I can't believe I missed a chance to meet wowaka. I wish I had gotten into vocaloid a lot sooner. Damn.

Any songs like Francium? A friend of mine really likes the fast, near nonsensical stuff like that and Rinchan now!

>>14923335
Buy all the diva games, and don't forget to preorder diva x.

>>14924338
I wasn't trying to diss the list or anything, I actually think it's a great starting point; it will just never be complete since there's just so much stuff out there, but I do think it works fine as is. If we're on the topic of suggestions, though...

These producers have songs with 1m+ views and have been featured in live concerts, games, or both, and should probably be in the list regardless (plus these are all great albums in their own right):
Hitoshizuku-P - Mistletoe / EndlessroLL
otetsu - Carnival / The Best of Otetsu
Yuuyu - The Four-Season Colored Star
Nem - from Neverland
Dixie Flatline - Fragments
sasakure.UK - Do Vocaloids Dream of Doomsday Birds?
minato - magnet -favorites plus-

A couple of personal suggestions:
XenonP - DIVINE -Kamikyoku-
Suzumu - On the Eighth Day, Before the Rain Stops

And a few nitpicks. I feel like these specific albums are better at representing the overall works of the producer in question and are more well known than what's already on the list:
Last Note - Setsuna Code (the complete version of First Trip)
takamatt - East End Pandemonium (instead of Miracle Child)
Clean Tears - Reverberations (Artificial Rainbow is great as well, but Clean Tears' most popular songs are the lengthy trance tracks)
koyori - World on Color (instead of Arrive You)
WonOppo - Best of Best!!! (C+++ lacks most of WonOppo's big hits)

There are a handful of producers with more than one album on the list, they could probably be trimmed down to make room for more variety if needed I guess.

I would agree with most of these changes, but I wouldn't include albums just because they are popular. I'm being biased, but I would back Yuuyu, otetsu, sasakure.UK, xenonP, and not the rest. I'm fine with the album swaps though. The list should definitely limit one album per producer.

Also, there's a few albums that don't belong on an essential list, at least in my eyes. Eutopia and My temperature are high on my "to remove" list. Maybe they add to music diversity, but there are better albums that also add diversity imo. For example:

堕ちた私の手を引いて for folk
星の大地 for jazz/electronic
メガネディスコ for disco
耳なりはフェンダーローズfor breakbeat

Just throwing out a few possibilities that I can think of right now. I would also consider cutting certain albums for being one song wonders, but I need to listen again before deciding.

>>14927170
Hitoshizuku-P and Nem definitely belong in an essentials list, at least. They're not just popular, their music is great as well. Hitoshizuku has a lot of top tier story songs like PartyxParty, the Night series, etc. Nem is a top tier jazz producer and does some amazing tuning with Gumi and Len. I agree that Dixie Flatline is kinda hit or miss overall, though.

>>14926104
Seconding magnets favorites plus because there are some Miku piano songs that are quite amazing, yet often overlooked.

However, if the list maker adds this album they need to note that the mixing/compression is really weird in this album. There's an audible difference in all of the tracks that makes everything sound super compressed and dry. So if they add it (which I still recommend, shitty mixing be damned), they should add a note saying just to rip mp3s from the videos themselves. Someone on Amazon JP said that's the way to go.

Hey >>14930096 here. I'm doing the night show so I can only help guide people doing the same shows because the afternoon show goers will have time to do things after the show while the night people pretty much can hang in one of two neighboring diners afterwards. That's why I'm planning to guide people on the Friday before (planning to take that day off) the concert so people can actually enjoy being in the city without feeling rushed.

Here is my email if anyone is interested in joining up: [email protected]

AGAIN this is not written in stone, if enough people want to join then I'll most likely go through with it.

Hi anons. I'm this anon right here:
>>14923335

So I bought f 2nd, and I'm absolutely loving it. Kaito's voice weird me out a little bit, but that's okay.

Anyway, so I realized that I straight-up suck at this game. I've never gotten a full gauge on any of the Easy songs (but I've managed to get Excellent rankings for all songs). In addition, I'm having a really hard time on Normal. I can't complete Two-Faced Lovers (I get absolutely demolished by the first Technical Zone and the chance time, specifically when the O and X buttons get mixed up with the directional buttons).

How do I git gud as this game?

Even if you do not want to learn Japanese, if you really like Vocaloid music and enjoy looking up lyrics, learning the basics would be great help.

Something like Hiragana/Katakana + particles + verb conjugations. Wouldn't take very long and from there you can understand songs by yourself while using rikaichan/sama.

i understand, no offense taken, I want the list to be the best there is.

I havent been able to get as much input on it as I haven't had posters like you all giving feedback on it that much. The list has been based on my judgment after listening a lot of it's music and other stuff from /mu/ which helped me understand what makes an album "essential", if that makes sense.

To clarify, there's a difference between To Pimp A Butterfly and whatever Vocaloid album there is out there in terms of production and distinctiveness, but Mikgazer can go toe to toe with most shoegazer albums. /mu/ has given Mikgazer high praises, but it's certainly not on the same level as loveless.

I'll see if I can work on the list sometime soon with these changes in mind. I'll need all the feedback I can get on it.

>>14936538
I've been bird watching once in my life, I move pretty often so I could probably rack up a list. Ding dong by Luka is probably my favourite song. I like manga for just about everything, though I like ero games more.

I think what you should do is once you have a list ready, set up a poll so that anons can choose which top 10/20/etc, should stay on the list. There's some albums that I personally wouldn't want, and the list is a bit dated. At least you're making an effort to update it, I'll give you credit for that.

Anons, please sell me on Kaito. Although he has some great songs (e.g. Cantarella, Wintry Winds), his voice can get very distracting at times.

Voice-wise, Kaito is one of the better male vocaloids, at least his V3. He's also not too unpopular so it's not that hard to find good songs that use him.

As a husbando, though, he gets second place.

and once again I am interested in whether the chorus (love me, baby baby...) is human or vocaloid or hybrid/edited, as I said I think it sounds very pleasant and was pleasantly surprised when I thought it was vocaloid.

It's only Gumi and Rin, both vocaloids. As anons already recommended, you should start checking out GigaP's mylist.

I would also recommend listening Reol versions of the songs. She and Giga collaborate quite often, not only with her singing, she also writes the lyrics for most of Giga's songs.

NYC MIKU EXPO MEETUP / TOURGUIDE

If anyone is interested in hitting the Japanese related sights of NYC (I’m looking at you out of towners) and want to do it in a group contact me. I just need to know a few things:

1. Are you attending the afternoon or night concert? (Attendants of the afternoon show can do more things in NYC afterwards as opposed to the night show attendees.)

2. Are you a general admission or VIP? (GA ticket holders may need to get to the line ASAP not to say VIPs won’t.)

3. When will you arrive in NYC? (VERY important for those who wish to tour the city, I HIGHLY recommend you to devote Friday to go touring around and not on Saturday.)

4. Where will you be staying? (This will allow me to figure out the optimal location of the meet up)

If you are interested in joining PLEASE email me with this info NO LATER THAN THE END OF APRIL.

I myself will be attending the night show, if you are interested in joining or have any questions feel free to hit me with an email at :

I think you made a good overall view of the vocaloid phenomenon.

But you should consider do some changes. You wrote that Gumi is a Crypton vocaloid, which is wrong (she belongs to Internet Co.). I think you should also mention IA, since she is way more popular than Meiko, Kaito and Luka. Mentioning vocaloids others than the cryptonloids (and crediting their right developers) would give your paper a better overall view of vocaloid.

You may also want to emphasize the fact that vocaloid is mainly a japanese phenomenon, but there's also non-japanese vocaloids and a vocaloid culture overseas.

Another cool thing to write about would be the influence of vocaloid in development of other voice synthesizers.

It's cropped by in-app function named mask.

And yes, there is .apk file on the web, but with it You can have only model of original Miku. They were also Snow Miku, Sakura Miku, Miku Append, Yuzuki Yukari and v flower. They probably should work again after paste app files from person who have these models.
