Todays rip: 11/03/2024

ULTRA S+G

Season 2 Featured on: The SiIvaGunner YTPMV Collab (Eek!).veg

Ripped by Kirbio, SAF

God, man. Season 2 of SiIvaGunner was so cool.

And like, I know that that's what I *always* say when I'm writing about a Season 2 rip, in everything from Patched Plains Fusion Collab to Rippin'! Mashin'! High Quality Grand Prix and the SilvaGunner: Rebooted 1st Anniversary event...but I can't help it! There was just such an energy of excitement, of pure joy permeating throughout the entire season - excitement not just for the Christmas Comeback Crisis, but for how SiIvaGunner was *actually* back, firing on all cylinders. The rips were referencing events we were already nostalgic over, althewhile introducing new jokes in clever, memorable ways - the Inspector Gadget takeover and Become as Gadget will forever stick with me as one of the most engrossing events the channel has ever done.

To put it one way...in my (nostalgia-blinded) eyes, Season 2 was the most "unified" the channel ever felt. We were all invested in every little corner of the channel's ongoings, we were all aware of the origins of and meaning of all the active jokes...that kind of investment and attachment to all the featured jokes felt sort of like if Season 4 Episode 2's Summer Fes had lasted for an entire Season! And while we've certainly got a far wider, far more ambitious output of rips in Season 5 onward in particular, it was that feeling of unification that made rips like ULTRA S+G hit like fucking crazy.

The thing you'll immediately notice when clicking on ULTRA S+G is, of course, the visuals, a full-length parody of the visuals featured in the original ULTRA B+K music video, completely reimagined to feature several of SiIva's own memes from Season 2. The visuals are, of course, in sync with the main joke of the rip, in being a huge meme medley of various sources, most replacing the original song's "bass" and "kick" vocal samples. The resulting sound hits you like several trains throughout the rip, be it the opening of "DEE-DEE-DEE-DEE-DEE ; KAY-KAY-KAY-KAY-KAY!!", the beat-dropping "Miney Crafta"s and "GRAND DAD"s, the midsection covered by the good ol' PSY samples a la One Winged PSYcho - V​.​S. Sepsyrop...and while all that is happening, you're met with visuals that go absolutely above and beyond just parodying the original. It has little references to the events of Season 1, such as the infamous Bean or the Mr. Rental storyline of Mr. Rental [B Side] ~ Out of Options...and, hey - an animation of The Voice Inside Your Head!! What ULTRA S+G conveys above all else is the extent of the journey we had all been on over the course of almost two years, a hype-beyond-belief shot directly into the arm of everything SiIvaGunner embodies.

Kirbio's output on the channel is impressive in its sheer scope, and recently of note arranged one of Season 1's greatest in the form of Return to Collision Clouds. Its likely coincidental, but I enjoy how both that arrangement as late in as Season 7, as well as ULTRA S+G, manage to convey that feeling of the long journey the channel's been on in entirely different ways: Return to Collision Clouds has a sentimental feel to it, wheras ULTRA S+G may as well be hype incarnate. An explosive beginning to the end of Season 2, its the kind of rip that I cannot stop returning to for the memories alone - helped, of course, by the rip itself being an incredible watch and listen.

Some random thoughts about the western Vocaloid scene

Hello! This is my first time I’m writing in Tumblr! Hope you like this.

I've been a Vocaloid fan for over a decade. I've seen the community grow over the years, and therefore, how many producers have joined the scene, left the community, or unfortunately passed away.

While the Japanese side of Vocaloid is more universally known, I want to focus on the western side.

There are few documented songs made by non-japanese musicians before the Vocaloid Boom, and one of the few ones was Tears of an Angel by Mike Oldfield, who is famous for his groundbreaking album called Tubular Bells.

After that, Vocaloid started to gain a lot of attention, and young aspiring musicians from all over the world felt inspired to make music with this software. Most of them were minors that were still experimenting with programs like FL Studio or Ableton. Of course, the music sounded amateurish, but you could sense the passion that those kids added to their songs.

Sadly, for some years, the producers got stuck. They were trying to emulate the eerie and creepy aesthetics that several Japanese Vocaloid producers have delivered over the years.

It didn't felt inspired at all. It felt lazy, bland, and boring. It felt like they were trying too hard to be edgy. Several popular songs didn't transmit anything to me at all, because the other older and bigger side of the fandom has been doing the same thing over the years. They tried to emulate so hard to be like Hachi or Machigerita, they tried so hard to appeal to the fandom, that they forgot about making something that differenced them from others, or better said, something that differenced him from the Japanese Vocaloid musicians.

This also affected Vocaloid's image to several aspiring musicians that weren't anime fans or didn't like anime at all, since they related Vocaloid with anime due to the fans and its newbie musicians. The fact that they even noticed those problems says a lot.

Even though my criticism towards the English-speaking Vocaloid community and its producers is strong, I can't hate them. They have done a lot for this community, and also made our fanbase well-known overseas over the years; in fact, 2014 was the most crucial year for the western fanbase thanks to two songs.

Sad Machine by Porter Robbinson got released on May 13, 2014, gaining a lot of attention from both Vocaloid fans and electronic music ones. It gained millions of plays on both Youtube and Soundcloud (being the 1st English Vocaloid song with more than a million views on this site). Vocaloid was starting to get more mainstream in the west.

After that, a well-known duo called CIRCRUSH conformed by Crusher-P and Circus-P gave us probably the most important song from the western Vocaloid fandom, called ECHO.

ECHO's video was released on October 7th in the same year. The vague lyrics and the weird, yet captivating video inspired hundreds of fans making covers with other voicebanks, fanarts, dance covers, etc.

It is, by far, one of the most iconic Vocaloid songs out there. This song has been a massive contribution to us, to the point it was featured in some well-known rhythm games, like Jubeat or REFLECT BEAT plus. It was also the first American Vocaloid song in the Hall of Legend on Nicovideo. It even got a novel in 2015 that also has an English translation! And a famous artist made the cover!

Those songs are iconic, no matter if you like them or not. They have achieved several things that I have never dreamed of from this part of the fandom.

It is beautiful to think about how much the Vocaloid community has changed over the years. It is also very nostalgic since several important sites like VocaloidOtaku closed years ago.

what always caught my eyes about your blog is your icon. mr smith is such a nice guy

Back when I first made this Tumblr, I was into jubeat plus (or, as it was known in the US, jukebeat), so I decided to use a jubeat avatar. Even though I haven't played jubeat since 2018, I haven't changed it since.

My Twitch avatar is Kotaro from the same series.

-> Sub-Pinned Post: Blog Tag Browser!! <-

Hello hello, welcome to the sub-pinned post to my cool and awesome 2025!!! ...sooo why does this exist? Well, I was hard at work yesterday and today editing my massive new intro post for the account, but just as I had finished everything I wanted to add and was about to publish... I started getting errors with publishing or even saving the posts. It was a struggle to figure out the issue and I was smashing my head against my keyboard, but I found out that it was because Tumblr has a secret inline link limit of 100 per post, and any additional links would either disappear or result in an error.

The rhythm game, version, and miscellaneous tags already exceed the 100 link limit, so not even this sub-post was enough to contain them... Thus, I decided to split the main, important, all-encompassing rhythm game tags into the main pinned post, and the more specific/browsable version-specific and miscellaneous tags here so that they're easier to update whenever a new version releases. I apologize for the navigational inconvenience, but hopefully this solution works out best for the both of us! But for now, enjoy the browsing!!!

Rhythm Game Song of the Week - nora2r - B.B.K.K.B.K.K.

nora2r is a Japanese UK Hardcore artist, “UK Hardcore” being the genre, known for his work in the BMS community. BMS is short for Be-Music Source, and refer to files that can be played in “simulators” such as Lunatic Rave 2 and beatoraja. This song in particular was made for BMS of Fighters 2013, and was the highest rated song of that contest.

This song would make an official appearance in three different commercial rhythm games: Konami’s Sound Voltex III Gravity Wars, Sega’s maimai ORANGE, and Sega’s CHUNITHM, seen above. The chart shown here is the “World’s End” chart; the rest of the charts in that game aren’t nearly as gimmicky.

The long version of B.B.K.K.B.K.K. appears on a compilation named YATSUZAKI HARDCORE VOLUME 4. There’s also two different remixes that appear on the 3rd and 4th nora2r albums, remixed by hurce and Alex Prospect, respectively. nora2r’s fourth album would also have a sequel to this song, called ULTRA B+K, which also made an appearance on the Japanese versions of jubeat plus and Reflec Beat plus.

@volte-academy-official replied to your post: i wonder if the only reason im so good at jubeat...

fuck me i wanna play jubeat

the closest i can get is malody on my tablet which has a jubeat mode... i should reinstall

me too dude, i get to play jubeat like one weekend a year at my local convention. i’m full willing to drop $60 for the sole purpose of playing jubeat at this point, i should just buy a cabinet at this point mmmm

i’ve been using... SionsBeat. Which is quite frankly pretty awful in hindsight. To the point that I just don’t play it anymore, sadly. :( Wish I could install jubeat plus. I would gladly buy songs for cash money, but I’m hella opposed to getting an ipad lol.

Posting soon/mini-update notice

Kind of been behind on posting my latest purchases of BEMANI/ KONAMI merchandise, due to work and college. I’ll have the photos up soon, all queued and information for 2 pop'n music albums, a beatmania IIDX album, a REFLEC BEAT album and 2 jubeat albums. (Plus an original soundtrack for a series that I would consider really hard to obtain due to import prices and where you can only purchase said item; I’m still in the process of looking for the first soundtrack for this series for example)

And in other news, I can’t wait for the last week of May, for Fanimecon. That aside, everything else is going okay, expect for my lack of going to Round1 and playing SOUND VOLTEX IV. Oh, there finally a console release of the SOUND VOLTEX coming soon (Japan only) and the arcade home controller for it looks cool. I also upgrade to the latest iPod as I finally hit the limit with the latest albums I bought. I’m not quite there in all in favor for the new model, but it’s growing on me.

I’m just going end it here, before I end up writing a essay… Thanks for reading ~ sweet-energy
