Get your Miku on!  

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

Morning Cup o’ Music

Yeah, I’m continuing today with yet another song and video from the Hatsune Miku 39′s Giving Day concert. Today’s though, is from a male vocaloid. Yes, those do exist…leave me alone!

I’m rather new to the Vocaloid scene that’s been ongoing in Japan for what seems like years now. I never thought I’d be the kind of person that would fall for virtual idols like this.
