I come bearing bad news

2009-06-30T18:28:46Z

Sooo. I was travelling last week. I brought my laptop and external harddrive with me. And somehow the harddrive died, taking all my files with it. Sooo. What I'm saying is:

- I have no files/music (currently)
- I do have CD's, but ripping over 400 CD's (I think, it took my lists too) will take some time (understatement)
- I have some older stuff on burned CD's, but organizing it all will take some time

So I guess I'll have to put this journal on hiatus for now, while I get organized again. Hopefully I'll get ready to make rotations again after the summer.

So I hope you guys have a great summer! And I'll see you again sometime.

Nothing this week...

2009-05-25T13:41:44Z

I was sick and was late with the previous rotation (so I didn't start on this one when I usually do), and work as usual.

Soo... unless I work like a mad woman on Saturday and Sunday there will be nothing this week, and possibly the next week will be late as well.

The reason is that my work schedule is crazy, and I have to study for a exam on Friday (which I've failed 3 times already, I suck).

So I'll hopefully have something up by the 8th.

Rotation 13

2009-05-20T08:32:51Z

I must apoligize for the delay of this rotation. I was travelling, and I've been busy with work and being sick. But here it is, finally.

Title: JUST THE WAY YOU ARE
Artist/band: Koda Kumi
Time: 3:43
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
There is something about the lines she sings in English that make me insanely happy and touched (in a good way). And I want to go to a fair (?) with her!!!

Title: Sora Uta
Artist/band: alan
Time: 4:22
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I really like the Tibetian wail (?) at the beginning. I think it's part of the reasons I love alan.
Download

Title: Cassis
Artist/band: the GazettE
Time: 6:45
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I remember when they played this song in London, and how all the girls (and possibly guys) in the audience screamed. I honestly don't see what's soo great about it. It's very nice and I really like Ruki's voice here, but other than that... I guess I haven't seen any translations and therefore don't connect to it like so many others seem to do.
Download

Title: VENUS
Artist/band: Kiyoharu
Time: 3:34
Bitrate: 192 Kbps
Comments:
There's nothing like hearing Kiyoharu singing this song! I've heard Kumi sing this one too, but I definitely prefer this one!!!
Download

Title: Passion
Artist/band: Utada Hikaru
Time: 4:43
Bitrate: 192 Kbps
Comments:
I think I like the English version better, but I guess that's because I heard it first and I'm m ore used to it. But it's very nice. (Way to go on the commenting)

Title: MISSIN' U
Artist/band: Jamosa
Time: 4:19
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Ah Jamosa... I have yet to hear a song by her that I don't like (I haven't listened too closely to Red yet, so I shouldn't say something so bold). I do like the remix better, maybe I should include that the next time?

Yay! rapping! Anna has a very interesting voice.

Title: Fire
Artist/band: 2NE1
Time: 3:45
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I "discovered" this group while I was travelling last week. I had heard about them before (I think), but I'm not all that into girl groups (with some exceptions). But I kept seeing download links for the MV/PV for this song, so I gave it a change. I think these girls will be big!
Download

Title: Reason
Artist/band: Tamaki Nami
Time: 4:50
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
This is a random purchase, or I got it in some bulk/wholesale thing off ebay. It's not too bad, but not something I listen to too often. When I think about it, it kind of reminds me of High and Mighty Color. (not really, but there is something HaMC about it)
Download

Title: fuck me
Artist/band: DEATHGAZE
Time: 3:47
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I wonder what kind of mood I was in when I chose this song (*has short attention span*). I like it, but I have no idea why.

Title: in the rain
Artist/band: 9GOATS BLACK OUT
Time: 5:51

Title: Natsu Sora
Artist/band: Ai Otsuka
Time: 4:34
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Traditional instruments!!!!!!!! And her voice is cute, and not nasal/annoying.
Download

Title: Thru With You
Artist/band: Heartsdales
Time: 4:28
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Why did they have to break up??? *cries* Iy's not one of my absolute favorites, but it shows how good they were. And for some reason it sounds as if someone is singing with them, because the singing does not sound like Rum at all.
Download

Title: ROCK THE PARTY ft. BOY-KEN & ORQUESTA DE LA LUZ BAND
Artist/band: DOUBLE
Time: 5:32
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I would have liked the song if the latin(?) rythms were more present throughout the song. But it is pretty good even without that. (I'm not making sense am I?)
Download

Title: Lump of Affection
Artist/band: UVERWorld
Time: 4:25
Bitrate: 192 Kbps
Comments:
I do not like the intro, it actually annoys me. But the rest of the song is very good. The vocalist has a very typical sounding voice. To mee atleast.
Download

Title: BIRTH
Artist/band: D
Time: 4:16
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I want to learn the violin parts soo badly you have no idea!!! I think this songs was the song that really got me hooked on D.
Download

Title: CARRY DAWN
Artist/band: Dio -Distraught Overlord-
Time: 4:25
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
The intro is kinda boring, but it gets better further in the song. God I love Mikaru's voice. But I do prefer Dio's heavier songs.
Download

Title: Say You Luv Me ~Mahou no Kotoba~
Artist/band: Foxxi misQ
Time: 3:48
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
More violins! I get images of lying (I sriously need to brush up on English) in bed while reading love letters.

Artist/band: Kanon Wakeshima
Time: 3:19

Kanon's debut song. Strings in this one too. Do I have a string fetish perhaps?
Download

Title: Yume wo Mikata ni
Artist/band: Ayaka
Time: 4:18
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
This song gives off a gospel vibe. Or at least somewhere in the middle of the song. It's nice, and her voice sounds mature.

Rotation 12

2009-05-04T05:00:20Z

This rotation and the comments is lamer than usual, mostly because I've been busy with work and preparations for the upcoming trip. And about that trip:
I don't know if I'll have internet or not in my hotels, so most likely the next rotation will hopefully be up tuesday/wednesday. Unless some miracle happens and they have internet. (not likely though).
Enjoy this week's pickings!

Title: Akuroo
Artist/band: Onmyo-za
Time: 3:44
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I randomly got a Onmyo-za CD while I was in Stockholm last year. I had heard o the band, but even heard them. This was the first song, and it blew me away. The combination of a rough male voice and the occasional softness of the female, is a very good one. Check them out!
Download

Title: Hades - The bloody rage-
Artist/band: Yousei Teikoku
Time: 4:38
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
My first Yousei song. I like her voice, and that it's high pitched, but not in the typical annoying fashion many japanese girls have. And the addition of opera-esque choir.
Download

Title: Get Them Hands Up
Artist/band: 1TYM
Time: 3:29
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Get them hands up. I'll be doing that twice this week so maybe this song was chosen subconsiously (I don't have a dictionary nearby) in honor of that.
Download

Title: Kei
Artist/band: Ayabie
Time: 3:36
Bitrate: 192 Kbps
Comments:
I like the intro of this song. But then it slows down, and fast again, and stays fast. I don't listen all that much to Ayabie, but

Title: ila.
Artist/band: Baroque
Time: 5:33

Comments:
Hmmm. Not sure what to say about it. Nice I guess.
Download

Title: ablaze my sorrow
Artist/band: chariots
Time: 6:42
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
A song about a dead friend if I've gotten it right. It has a sad quality to it. But I think the vocals lack a little feeling, it seems to dull. But the music is just right.
Download

Title: Stuck Man
Artist/band: Dir en grey
Time: 3:35
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
The bass is very present in this song, and that alone is reason enough for me to like it.
Download

Title: Anjelier
Artist/band: MUCC
Time: 4:11
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I have a thing/softspot for men who can do falsetto/reach the high notes. And Tatsuro (?) is really good at it.
Download

Title: Mugen Kigen
Artist/band: misono
Time: 4:20

Comments:
Not one of my favorite song (not that I've heard so many), but it's kinda nice.
Download

Title: Saa Ima Kimi to
Artist/band: Yorico
Time: 4:33
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I think I'm falling in love with her voice. But I don't know why I like this song. For some reason it kind of reminds me of the Olivia song on this rotation, not that they are anything alike.
Download

Title: fairytale
Artist/band: Kalafina
Time: 5:13

Comments:
When I listen to this song i want to run through some fairytale wood with the cute animals and fairies.

Title: Sai
Artist/band: kagrra,
Time: 3:15
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I think this song is my favorite of the Core album. I like the upbeat feeling of it. And the fact that I've seen/heard it live is good!
Download

Title: The Love From A Dead Orchestra
Artist/band: Versailles Philharmonic Quintet
Time: 8:28
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Thanks to last.fm this was my first Versailles song. And it's long. But Kamijo (?)'s voice makes up for that. He has a opera-esque voice that I really like.

Title: Hapi Hapi Sunday!
Artist/band: Kusumi Koharu
Time: 3:46
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Under normal circumstances i would hate this song, and find it annoying. But right now it's kinda fun. (I think I'm too tired).

Title: Don't Give A Damn
Artist/band: BoA
Time: 3:03
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I Don't give a damn. A very big part of my outlook on life right now. This song only fuels it. the songs has boring parts, and interesting parts, but overall it's a decent song.
Download

Title: Celestial Delinquent
Artist/band: Olivia
Time: 3:43
Bitrate: 224 Kbps
Comments:
I picked this song because of the title. And honestly it's kinda boring. The vocals is very nice, but the repeat in the music, it's just a misfit. I think it would sound better with piano and violins.
Download

Title: RESISTANCE
Artist/band: Mika Nakashima
Time: 4:52
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
There is somethign about Mika's voice in this song I don't like. And I can't find the words to describe what bugs me about it either. But I think this song would be better for a different singer.
Download

Title: Animal
Artist/band: Lexy
Time: 3:18
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Now that I listen to it again, it reminds me of a song, but I can't think of which song it could possibly be.
Download

Title: Mr. Feather
Artist/band: Ellegarden
Time: 3:37
Bitrate: 184 Kbps
Comments:
Somehow this reminds me alot of ummmm (since I don't listen to too much american music) fall Out Boy (not at all), and those kinds of bands. I like the fact that it's all in English. I liked this song, so maybe i'll find more treasures from these guys.
Download

Title: candy Strippers
Artist/band: Fatima
Time: 4:20
Bitrate: 128 Kbps
Comments:
I think I chose Fatima because I've just recently rediscovered the jaw-eating clip on YouTube (other people call it a kiss). But i don't have a lot of songs by them (as of now), and the name stood out amongst the few I had. So here you go. I don't have a proper impression of Fatima just yet, so i'll leave this empty (you wrote a lot).

Rotation 11

2009-04-27T07:18:58Z

So... I was worried I wouldn't get this up in time (due to unscheduled work), but thanks to Coke Zero and sheer determination I did it!
I will be leaving for Helsinki next monday, so Rotation 12 won't be too affected. But I'm not home before the next tuesday, so rotation 13 might be a little late (unless my hotel actually has a stable internet connection).
Anyway: Enjoy this week's selection!

Title: Taradara -Korean
Artist/band: Lee Jung Hyng
Time: 3:26

Title: In da club
Artist/band: Lady
Time: 3:09
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I originally ordered this single because I read about them, and transexuals piqued my interest. I wondered how they sound, and it wasn't too bad.
Download

Title: alkaloid Showcase
Artist/band: Matenrou Opera
Time: 4:10
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
My first Matenrou Opera song. I first heard about MO after a An cafe concert in Stockholm. I really wanted to go to the concert they did with Versailles, but sadly I couldn't afford it. So instead I bought Gilia, which only fuelled my frustration. I really need to broaden my musical horizons, because right now I can't tell if Sono has a standard jrock voice or if it is unique. *shame*
Download

Title: LOVE AUTOMATIC
Artist/band: Cassis
Time: 4:19
Bitrate: 192 Kbps
Comments:
I think most people think the GazettE when they hear the word Cassis. And I think that is part of the reason I downloaded this song. It's far from the GazettE style wise, and I'm horrible at labeling musical styles, so I'll just label this one danceable.
Download

Title: goodbye my earth
Artist/band: DEATHGAZE
Time: 4:07
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
His voice reminds me of Asagi of D. One of the reasons I like them perhaps?

Title: I HATE MYSELF AND WANT TO DIE
Artist/band: Rentrer en Soi
Time: 4:18
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I have a tendency to hum/sing a line from this song when I'm at work. Only with my own lyrics... I hate them all and want them to die... It's a shame they disbanded because I really like their music.
Download

Title: 39GalaxyZ
Artist/band: SuG
Time: 3:59
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Even if it is almost 4 minutes it seems a bit short. But it's fun, maybe that is the reason? (or my short attention span...). It's kinda sad that Mitsuru is leaving, not only because their loosing a member, but it will increase the time until a new release. Good luck to Mitsuru in whatever he chooses to do next, and good luck to SuG in finding a new dummer!
Download

Title: Kairos
Artist/band: SCREW
Time: 3:34
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
The "main-song" from their new mini-album/maxi-single/I have no idea what it is. It doesn't stand out in any way, it's pretty much a standard Screw song. I wish Byou would use more force when singing, right now he sounds to bland in a way, good but bland. Some edge to his vocals would do their sound good methinks.
Download

Title: VANGUARD
Artist/band: exist trace
Time: 4:40
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I pretty much fell in love with this song the first time I heard it. Jyou's voice has improved. I really want to get my hands on this album. Physical hands, not interwebz hands...
Download

Title: Crazy Dog
Artist/band: Big bang
Time: 3:40
Bitrate: 192 Kbps
Comments:
My favorite from "Hot Issue". I normally can't stand most boybands, but I think the mix of singing and rapping is sort of easing it. + I have a soft spot for the Korean language.
Download

Title: Bokura Bara Iro no Hibi
Artist/band: Chihiro Onitsuka
Time: 5:07
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I think I've taken a liking to female vocals with piano and string accompanying (I need to brush up on some basic English...) them. I haven't listened to Chihiro too much (except "Infection"), but somehow I think this type of song is very standard her.
Download

Title: 이 죽일 놈의 사랑
Artist/band: Lee Soo Young
Time: 4:08

Comments:
What is up with soothing voices today? This rotation will put people to sleep... *shakes head* Soo Young is definitely worth listening to

Time: 2:54
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Finally something on the heavy side. I love Girugamesh! 2 weeks from now I will have seen them 3 times (should have been 4, but I got lost). Anyone here going to Helsinki or Stockholm? Can't wait to headbang to this song!!!

Download

Title: Gips
Artist/band: Shiina Ringo
Time: 5:38
Bitrate: 192 Kbps
Comments:
I was under the impression that she was a bit heavier. I guess I should listen to other songs before I make up my mind. Right now she's giving of a Avril vibe, why? I have no idea. I don't even listen to Avril...
Download

Title: DEAD END
Artist/band: Aya
Time: 3:41

Comments:
One of my first Aya songs I think. I don't know why I like this song, I just do.

Title: Gabriel
Artist/band: J
Time: 4:04
Bitrate: 128 Kbps
Comments:
Bad sounquality BOOOO... I'm kind of new to J. I've heard about him everywhere, but I haven't listened to him that much. So I have no idea if this song is standard for him. The into reminds me of something, but I can't point my finger to it (Norwegian grammar...). It's not bad, but it's not OMG GOOD!!! either.

Title: Dopeman? -♥Emyli & Diggy-mo'
Artist/band: m-flo
Time: 5:36
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
I remember hearing this song in some shop. The guy behind the counter said I was the first to recognize the songs he was playing. I thought Trondheim would have more jpop loving otakus... Anyway, Emyli's voice is really growing on me. I have no idea what to say.
Download

Title: Again
Artist/band: Villain
Time: 3:29
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments:
Again a random purchase (I think.. I've had way to many lately). When I picked this song for the rotation, I was sure that this song was perfect (I sometimes pick at random), but now that I'm listening to it I don't see what I saw in it. I guess I like the vocalist? (as always)

Rotation nr. 10

Title: It's all Love!
Artist/band: Koda Kumi & misono
Time: 4:54
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments: Collaboration between the Koda. Very cool song, but it would have sounded better if they had replaced misono with someone with a different sound from Kumi. In my opinion they blend too much. But the PV is really fun!
Download

Title: Eat You Up
Artist/band: BoA
Time: 3:13
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments: BoA's first American single (as far as I know). You can tell she's had intensive English lessons, because the acent she's had before is gone. And the song is great! I hope she succeeds in the US.
Download

Title: Aroma
Artist/band: Antic cafe
Time: 4:16
Bitrate: 320 Kbps
Comments: I'm not too fond of the song, but it's not bad. It's worth a listen, but right now I think it's kinda boring.

Title: Children of Despair
Artist/band: Sadie
Time: 3:48

Title: ZERO SYMPATHY
Artist/band: High and Mighty Color
Time: 2:40

Artist/band: L'Arc en Ciel

Title: Kettobase!
Artist/band: Utada Hikaru

Title: BLOOD ft. EXO-CHIKA
Artist/band: BLOOD
Time: 5:19

Comments: This song and the lady it features was the only reason I ever gave BLOOD a chance. It turns out to be a good thing. Their voices fit together, but not in a blending kind of way.

Title: Dirty Game

Title: Daia no Hana
Artist/band: Yorico
Time: 3:36
Comments: Very pleasant voice, not the stereotype squeaky japanese girl. And the battle for song dominance between the piano and guitar is fun. (That's how is see it)
Download

Title: 灼熱の踊り子
Artist/band: Nudyline
Time: 4:09
Comments: What to say? I first saw the PV for this one. I think I watched 30 secs before turning it of. I later downloaded a Nudyline single and liked what I heard, and decided to give this one a second chance. I think the PV annoyed me too much to actually focus on the song. But it's not soo bad after a couple times.

Title: REDEEMER
Artist/band: D'espairsRay
Time: 4:20

Artist/band: Kanon Wakeshima

For those who don't want to download file after file. Here it is in one place.
Full rotation

I came to a realization while making this rotation. I need to make a "master-list" of what I've uploaded previously (since my internet connection is unstable so I can't check with the rotations online). This time I could just use artists I've never uploaded before, and songs that wasn't released before 2008. And even if 08 & 09 has seen some great music I can't keep up with that tactic. Why didn't I think of doing that when I started this? Oh well...

Long time no see...

2009-04-06T10:14:25Z

God I feel awful. I completely forgot about this place. Due to school, work and travelling + an internet connection with some issues (it's still misbehaving, but I'll do what I can).
I'll hopefully have the next rotation up by next week. I have some ideas and such to work out. So I hope you will stop by then.

I've made a community for my album uploads. I hope to see you there as well.

Bad news!

2007-11-19T12:14:55Z

I haven't been online for the last 4-5 days, and today I decided to check my download status at MediaFire.
Unfortunately all of my files seems to be deleted, and my account deleted as well. So as of now I think only the very first rotation is active (since it was on Megaupload).
I will try to get all the songs back up again.

Of course this could be just a minor error, and/or my computer going crazy.

Hey!

2007-11-13T16:15:49Z

Hey guys!
It's been a long time. I've been busy traveling, and I've hadn't had the time to upload anything. And I'm afraid that will continue for a while.

The thing is that I'm re-taking some exams and I'll be busy until the 28th. (Hopefully I won't have to re-take it again)
But I have several singles/CD ordered (one is being prepared for shipping as I write) and as soon as I get my CD's I'll do a post to make up for my absence.

I really should be writing notes for the 15 minutes speech I'm supposed to hold in 2 days, but I thought I'd give you a reason why I haven't been updating (I always make excuses don't I?).

*side-note*
I have heard that MediaFire has a habit of deleting files, so if you see that any of my uploads are gone, tell me about it.

Rotation

2007-10-22T00:40:56Z

I'm takin a break from checking tube-station stops and such to give you this. But I'm lazy today and I'm not uploading any new artists (so I won't have to find new images). But I hope you'll enjoy what I have decided on. This time next week I'll be in London sleeping (hopefully). So now I have a lot of things to do. So if you excuse me...

Rotation

2007-10-16T00:09:51Z

Yes! I did it! I managed to get a rotation up when it was supposed to! *applauds herself*
Hopefully the trend will continue. Next week's rotation should be fine, but I'm leaving for London the next Wednesday, and I'm not home until Monday morning (after a sleepless night on a bus). And then on Friday I'm leaving for Helsinki and I'm not home before Wednesday (after another sleepless night on a god-dammed bus). But I'll try my hardest to at least get something up for you, I can't make any promises though.

And as always: Comments are love!

2007-10-03T20:33:20Z

This last week has been stressful, and I thought I was good at working under stress, but apparently not. Not only did I delay the rotation, but I failed to find 20 songs like I usually do. I'll try to make up for it later.
I can say now that from the 24th to the 6-7th I'll be away for some time, but I'll try to get some music up for you.

I'm honestly not sure if all the images work this time, but it could be my computer for all I know.

Title: Always
Artist/band: Big Bang
Time: 3.53
Comments: While searching for a picture I remembered why the name sounded so familiar. There is a Norwegian rock group with the same name. Burn for the Korean boys... Also while doing research I found one of the possible reason why I like this song: Teddy wrote it... I have feeling he'll be the Korean m-flo for me.

Title: Alterna
Artist/band: SuG

Title: Warrior Spirit ft. jay Chou
Artist/band: Jolin Tsai
Time: 4:19
Comments: Damn! I had trouble finding information for this song (to get the tags right, I'm still not sure if what I put down is right). The song also goes under the name "Spirit of the Knight". And the pic is a bit off, as she looks like a taiwanese version of Rhianna (or whatever her name is) now.

Comments: The first time I heard this song I was confused... Wait a minute! I don't have American rap on my iPod. One look and I saw it was m-flo. Ahhh... I've never heard of the guys m-flo in collaborating with, but I'm guessing some are American as the whole thing (from what my now pretty shitty, can hear) is in English.

This is rather hastily done because I have a lot of things to do and to ignore today, so my comments suck (like they always do).
I have decided to from now on upload the rotation on MediaFire (because it works for everyone, and the files won't die that easily) and when I get around to uploading full singles or albums they will be on Megaupload.
Comments, suggestions and everything is welcomed, and will be taken seriously (as serious as I can be...)

Title: Ishoku Othello
Artist/band: Lolita 23Q

Exist trace - Judea
Title: Judea
Artist/band: exist trace
Time: 3:13
Comments: One of very few Visual kei bands with only girls. I'm not to fond of the vocals, but it can grow on me. She does have a nice voice when singing, but the growling... I'll keep an open mind, and listen to their other songs
Download

Title: Agony
Artist/band: the GazettE
Time: 4:15
Comments: "Yo! Fap-boy!" I still get giggles hearing the"intro". This song is completely in English, and I'm sort of glad I looked at the booklet while hearing it for the first time, because if I hadn't I could have misheard a lot of things. I guess I like it because of the rap-like vocals.
Download

Title: NO GOOD! (dame dame)
Artist/band: Norisiam-X
Time: 4:00
Comments: Another female rapper (get used to it, you'll be getting a lot of that here). One of few songs I actually understand the japanese title of (but that has nothing to do with the song itself...) NO GOOD! is one of the reason I ordered the album yesterday, and then I can provide a better bitrate (this has 191).
*sidenote* I had a hard time finding pictures of her... so I'm not sure if the pic is of her. Do tell me if you know.

Title: Taste Your Stuff
Artist/band: m-flo loves Bennie K
Time: 4:01
Comments: I believe this was one of my first m-flo songs. I think English/Japanese does it for me. And generally m-flo does make good music from what I've heard so far. Actually I have yet to hear a m-flo song that I don't like.
Download

Title: "Forbidden"
Artist/band: DéspairsRay
Time: 4:48
Comments: I don't know what it is about DéspairsRay but for some reason they ooze sex.
Download

Title: Will
Artist/band: Ayumi Hamasaki
Time: 4:07
Comments: Since this song was used as a ending-theme for the Norwegian airings of the Osaka VM I had to give this a good listen. The song was chosen because it had a hint of traditional elements in it. And it is beautiful!
Download

Title: Golden Palace ft. Corn Head
Artist/band: Foxxi MisQ
Time: 3:20
Comments: "I'll be your belly dancer". That sentence alone is enough to make me love it, and the fact that it has danceable rhythms helps as well.
Download

Title: I'll be There
Artist/band: Koda Kumi
Time: 4:14
Comments: I think this was the last song on Black Cherry that I listened to. Acoustic guitar ftw! It is beautiful!
Download

Title: Song with no name
Artist/band: BoA
Time: 3:06
Comments: Japans favorite Korean girl. This song is simply beautiful.
Download

Title: Gakidou
Artist/band: Baroque
Time: 3:15
Comments: I know the pic is very off for the song, but whatever. Like many other songs I first saw the video for it, and I suppose Ryo's multiple facial piercings intrigued me.
Download

Title: Infection
Artist/band: Chihiro Onitsuka
Time: 5:45
Comments: This song is just beautiful. I usually don't like songs like this one, but this one. She has a really beautiful voice and a very strong one as well.
Download

Title: G-Dragon
Artist/band: G-Dragon ft. Perry
Time: 3:04
Comments: This rotations Korean song (as BoA's song is in japanese). Rap, and need I say more?
Download

Title: Shallow Sleep (English)
Artist/band: Hyde
Time: 4:49
Comments: The only Hyde song I've listened to, but I like it very much.
Download

Title: Get Ya'
Artist/band: Lee Hyori
Time: 3:34
Comments: Screw what i said in G-Dragon... This is also in Korean. Dance baby!
Download

Title: Chikai no Tsuki
Artist/band: Kagrra
Time: 4:08
Comments: I remember hearing this song in a backstage clip from the PSC-tour, and I had to know who made it. It took me some time, but Kagrra was the band (not that there were too many options as it had to be a PSC band). I (as usual) don't know what makes me like the song, I just do.
Download

Title: Ready Steady Go
Artist/band: L'Arc en Ciel
Time: 3:49
Comments: I have 15 L'Arc singles lying about at home, but I have yet to listen to any of them. So this is the only L'Arc song I've listened to (hearing only 1 song seems to be a general rule for me). I honestly have no idea what to write....
Download

Title: Lipgloss
Artist/band: Lil' Mama
Time: 3:24
Comments: "My lipgloss is cool. My lipgloss is poppin'" I first heard about this song in some GazettE humor thing, and I really wanted to hear it. And it was really fun. But trying to sing along causes me to become breathless...
Download

Title: Death's Door
Artist/band: Screw
Time: 4:05
Comments: I think this is a genius band name. I have no idea why I gave this band a try, I think it was because it was compared to either the GazettE or Dir en grey.
Download

Title: First Love
Artist/band: Utada Hikaru
Time: 4:17
Comments: One of my first Japanese songs, and it is soooooooo beautiful. Highly recommended!!!
Download
Remember: Comments are love!

Rotation

2007-08-27T12:09:05Z

Since this is the very first rotation I came up with a half-assed theme: First impressions
I'm not very good at commenting, so bear with me.

And remember: Comments are love!

Title: Angel Eyes
Artist/band: Heartsdales
Time: 3:38
Comments: Heartsdales was actually one of the artists that got me hooked on Japanese music. The mix of japanese and English with dance-able rhythms was what did it for me.
Download

Title: dead tree
Artist/band: Dir en grey
Time: 4:50
Comments: To be honest with you I can't remember what was my first Dir en grey song. I downloaded 4 songs at once, and I remember "dead tree" as one of them. When I discovered Dir en grey I was still pretty new to the whole Visual kei scene (they had left it long before I came along, but I didn't know that) and I had problems remembering who was who. But anyway... If I'm not mistaken the song is about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Download

Title: 1000 no Kotoba
Artist/band: Koda Kumi
Time: 5:59
Comments: The first time I heard this song was with Jade of Sweetbox from the FF X-2 game. When i heard that the original was in japanese I had to have it. I ended up loving it, and also loving Kumi herself!
Download

Title: Scheat
Artist/band: SuG
Time: 4:35
Comments: The new Alice nine... Or so I've heard. I haven't had time to listen to their other songs. The singers smile sort of freaks me out... But that has nothing to do with their music... The short intro is adorable. The singers voice is very comfortable.
Download

Title: Hot Duga
Artist/band: 1TYM
Time: 3:38
Comments: Oh yeah! Korean rappers! I love this song soooo much I have no words... I highly recommend it!
Download

Title: Rock the LM.C
Artist/band: LM.C
Time: 4:28
Comments: Rock with rap-like vocals. Not quite my type of music, but still enjoyable.
Download

Title: X.X.X. ft. Koda Kumi
Artist/band: Soulhead
Time: 4:11
Comments: The first time I heard this song was Koda Kumi's version of it (D.D.D.). I sort of like this version better, I guess it's the rapping. I do have a soft spot for female rappers.
Download

Title: Uh Uh ft. A.I.
Artist/Band: Suite Chic
Time: 3:59
Comments: Suite Chic was/is Amuro Namie's side-project (I'm not sure if it's still going). But anyway. I really like her voice (mental note: Check out more of her) and again with rapping... I'm sold
Download

Title: Senor Senora senorita
Artist/band: Miyavi
Time: 4:23
Comments: Acoustic guitar gets a star, but acoustic guitar with latino rhythms gets 5. Nothing more to say...
Download

Title: Akatsuki
Artist/band: alice nine
Time: 3:32
Comments: Due to some mislabeled song (or my own ability to ignore/skip important stuff) I thought alice nine was a girl group. But I fond out they weren't girls, and got a fresh start with Akatsuki. I like the song, but I can't remember what got me hooked...
Download

Title: Tirorin
Artist/band: Kana
Time: 1:08
Comments: The ultimate annoy the hell out of people song (I mean this in a nice way). Kana's voice is rather squeaky and borderline false, but oh so cute! I highly recommend this song! Learn it by heart, and annoy the hell out of people by singing it over and over!
Download

Title: Basara
Artist/band: Aural vampire
Time: 3:17
Comments: I'm not sure what genre Aural vampire belongs to (generally I'm bad at labeling songs), but you can definitely dance to this song!
Download

Title: Follow the Night Light
Artist/band: Deadman
Time: 4:01
Comments: I know this song wasn't my first of Deadman, but my comp (with my music and videos) doesn't work... So I have no way of findinf it out. I think it was the bass line that hooked me. I am a sucker for bass. But the vocalist creeps me out!!!
Download

Title: Kotodama
Artist/band: Kagrra
Time: 4:29
Comments: Rock with a hint of traditional elements = yes!
Download

Title: Ruten
Artist/band: 12 Girls band
Time: 4:42
Comments: I generally don't like instrumentals, but this one I love! I don't know if the group is Chinese or japanese, but the traditional sound is awesome.
Download

Title: Heroin
Artist/band: Vidoll
Time: 6:25
Comments: I listened to this song after reading some recommendation for pervert songs. Sure enough, the breathing/moaning is rather pervert... And enough said.
Download

Title: Just Melody
Artist/band: UVERworld
Time: 5:04
Comments: I have no idea what to say here. It was my first UVERworld song, but I have nothing to say... How stupid...
Download

Title: Nan Arayo ft. TEDDY
Artist/band: Se7en
Time: 3:24
Comments: He is a cutie!!! Back to serious mode... The 3rd or 4th Korean artist I was introduced to. And in this song he collaborates with TEDDY from 1TYM. It's too bad that the ending from the video isn't included, because it's my favorite part of the song. But I highly recommend it!
Download

Title: Beast of Blood
Artist/band: Malice Mizer
Time: 5:09
Comments: I just had to ahve on MM song. Everyone that is into japanese "rock" music has heard this one. I like it, and that's all.
Download

Title: Say Yeah!
Artist/band: Morning Musume
Time: 4:19
Comments: Cute! Cute! Cute! Japan's favorite group.Highly recommended!
Download

Welcome to Hazy Moon

2007-08-23T08:32:45Z

Welcome to Hazy Moon

Hazy Moon's purpose is to spread music to the people. Hazy Moon will give you everything from Bubblegum Pop to eardrum wrecking metal, depending on my mood.
In the beginning, Hazy Moon will be updated on a weekly basis. But if I get a positive response, and if my schedule allows it, I might expand to bi-weekly.
The rotations will be public, but friending the journal will be awarded with the occasional full album or single. And as soon as I get my music library written down I will start taking requests.

A little present: Koda Kumi - Freaky single

Remember: Comments are love!
