Morning Cup o’ Music

When I’m up late at work, coding away at the site’s core HTML and CSS, I find that it helpful to have background noise going on that I don’t really have to listen to, but also drowns out the tinnitus that I have to hear ALL THE TIME. Hence today’s track.  

Morning Cup o’ Music

I return from a long ass weekend in full on weeaboo mode, so prepare yourselves for a solid week of Kamui Gackt. Who’s that you say? Oh just click and you’ll find out! I got turned on to Gackt (no pun intended) years ago during the era of Napster or was it Kazaa when you were able to see what other files people were sharing on their computers and I happened to stumble upon a user who had a metric shitton of... 

RLR #107 – Girugamesshu

Announcing the triumphant return of Evan! Ok well, I guess him being gone one week doesn’t count as triumphant, but hey, I miss the man when he’s not on panel.  

Donate to the 2011 J-Pop Festival’s Kickstarter Page, Get Swag

It’s a win/win situation isn’t it? I mean, they’re not just asking for free money without giving you something in return. Seriously, if I were a San Francisco native, I’d be attending New People’s J-Pop Festival just to pick up the deliciously sweet crossover toy MIKU-KITTY.

Hatsune Miku 39′s Giving Day CD – Review

I wish I had the money to actually buy the blu-ray version of this concert, but until that day comes…I guess I’ll just have to settle on the Live CD version of this now infamous concert. Wait, you don’t know what I’m talking about?!? Oh, that’s right, I forgot that not everyone geeks out over J-Pop.  

I Love Japan: L’Arc~en~Ciel – True

Just like our dear bear boss, I love almost anything about Japan, specially it’s culture and music. J-music (especially J-Rock) has been a big part of my life. But for me, there is one band that’s more special than all the rest, there should be no shock that they’re one of the most popular and influential bands not only in Japan, but also for all of Asia. I’m talking about L’Arc~en~Ciel... 

I Love Japan: Gackt – Mars

I’m venturing that a good portion of the people visiting this site (minus me, King, and Styos) don’t know who Kamui Gackt is. Let’s just say that the man is a huuuuuge star over in Japan and the subject of today’s I <3 Japan article, though more accurate to say his masterpiece album Mars.
