音時雨 ～Regentropfen～

My dear RSS reader + that the dark Noriko singing around ruined this morning!
I mean I'm overwhelmed by so much news about coming releases, and past discoveries.
(so I'm writing at working hours, no surprising.)

#1. KOKIA's Mar-20 new album for 15th anniversary.
The title has been decided:
"Where to go my love?"
I thought that might be something including "color of life" at first, since that's the title of her April concerts.
She also mentioned that the tracklist was decided, but nothing announced yet.
--Anyway, I just want to see the CD cover ASAP!
↓Something like this? XD

#2. The Secret of "Road to Glory"

By the way, she voiced the cat showing in this image; the 2nd song in "Battle of Destiny" is his character song. （*´▽｀*）
And, by the end, she said anagram will be involved again in "Battle of Destiny".

KOKI-sama you are really having fun with anagram!!! Σ(ﾟДﾟ；
(and I haven't seen anywhere showing who did the arrangement. I really wish the person to be Masumi though.)

Then, can you please post the rearranged lyrics for "gematria"? This lyrics is too long to decipher by human~~ @w@

#3. Akiko's Coming Soon 4th Album?!
I caught that information on the special webpage for her 2013 concert. New song(s) in Akiko's 4th album will be revealed in concert.
http://www.laylania.com/

1st is a star, 2nd is the moon, and 3rd is harmony.
what will be the 4th motif? I'm so curious~
Wish it's not about the apocalypse (disharmony). It's possible in case of Noriko though.
Because someone mentioned, once on a Noriko live, she said, "the next song is like, when it stops raining, the world ends."

Yet no one knows when Akiko will release it! If you don't understand, refer to "Istoria" series.
Hope that's not the case this time.

--But but but how come you wiped out the adorable goldfish and replaced with the concert Poster?! Sounds like they have a domain solely for a concert! (つд⊂)

#4. Laylania == Uncertain World
I'm not saying the concept. It's something about the reading.

Anyhow, continuing on this site, a new discovery.
I don't know about others, but it's my first time seeing these two words being lined up, indicating the alternative way to read "uncertain world".
Maybe I just thought too much.

P.S.
Getting excited by Mr. Sunhelp's live gameplay of "Silent Hill 1", I started "Silent Hill 3" on last Sunday (because he said he's not planning play this one).
Let's see if I can finish this without any outside help. Of course, the action level is on Easy Mode -- if not, I'll never touch it!! XDD

P.P.S.
It's Feb 6 in Japan time already, I can now start to look forward my Krut-Box in mail two weeks later~

-- And I'll never touch my RSS reader in future in a workding day morning. u_u

I really didn't look for those info on purpose, they just jumped out of my RSS reader.

↑ "Battle of destiny" is the new theme song for a new chapter (forget the name) of DragonNest. Anyhow, sounds like another splendid song that can be lined up with "Road to Glory". I only wonder if the arranger is Masumi (she said nothing on twitter though). And, the C/W song is based on(?) a cat NPC in the game. I bet that will be a cute song, maybe like the pink elephant~

About the other two, I've been looking for the release info for a long time, and finally grabbed them on amazon. No cover yet, and no finalised title for the 15th annv. album yet either. Be patient!
"Kioku no Hikari" is arranged by Masumi, that's 100% correct. Now, the last question is if Masumi will be in the album. According to Masumi twitter, yes (hope I didn't misunderstood or misread. :P).

When I went through my twitter stalk list, I realised I almost missed something just released.

OVA "華ヤカ哉、我ガ一族" theme song single, released on Jan-23, and Annabel is in...
Right, now I remember she mentioned about it in last year, around October (maybe November). Good thing I won't miss it until months after! xD

Then, to confirm how to read the title correctly, I went to its wikipedia page, and read its music section.
Noriko's "Hanachiruya" and "Kinema Mosaic" are also from this game!
-- it's so hard to believe. *dies* (つд⊂) (don't ask me why!)

Nagi's Jan-30 single "Zoetrope" was leaked already, but it's so average that I deleted it after first listening (I don't like her do like her but not as much as Annabel, even they all belong to binaria).

About some past C83.

Haruka's new canoue stuff is good, so is LipAura series best collection. Yet I still think "Rakujitsu no Maigo" is kinda wasting of money, especially to people who bought "Tsukioi no Toshi".

Annabel's "Transparent Girl" is out of my expectation. (I'm apparently not saying it's a good one, at least to me), but in "Moonlit Phantom", although not that impressive, her two songs are still nice.

Nagi's album isn't out yet, but after a few times of trying her old albums, I gave up waiting for it. Nagi is awesome in binaria, but like I just said, she isn't that type I can follow throughly and blindly without caring about the music itself (make sense? if not, think about Noriko as an example).

Finally, about Jakuri, or I should write Jacqri.
When I saw the very first line of her introduction on wikipedia,
"382-year-old, appears as 15."
Somewhat I understood why people call her "the Mother" on the A.T. voting page. Σ(ﾟДﾟ；ｴｰｯ!

Visited that site again very randomly this afternoon, and then I saw this:

That's gorgeous!
Seems I MUST complete the writing by the end of January, as what I promised a week ago.

Actually, I saw the sidebar news earlier than the package appearance.
The new song samples!
I used to ignore samples, but began in last summer, I started to try more and more frequently.
Even I still hate samples, especially for great music, because the samples are nothing but teasers. Am I not correct? ~_~

Akiko's new song is ABSOLUTELY LOOPABLE. Typical Akiko style, and the middle string part is rather attractive -- I want her singing in Hymmnos though. Haruka's is as "average" as her other "good" works (honestly, I'm not that impressed so far). Noriko's is... how should I say it? Interesting? Because of the acappella part and the kinda "weird" sound effect. But I love the second part's drums as well. She said this would be more acoustic, and maybe that's why the composer+arranger was Dani? -- Imagining the two staying late on Xmas Eve for recording~~ But what if that was Hirota did the music? We never know..

Again, who is Jakuri? xD
-- at least I know (and only know) Akiko and Haruka's characters are the cover girls in A.T.2, but Noriko's girl is purely shadowless (to a non-A.T.-player)!

However, somehow being numbed by so much of A.T. music especially the super collage-like A.T. 3 series, I'm more and more getting the feeling that all A.T. related songs CAN be treated as the singers' own works, as long as the composer aren't those GUST people, who have implanted the unchangeable A.T. motif into listeners' mind. I do think these non-GUST produced A.T. songs will have a good flow with other "original" works by the same singer.

A bit off, huh.
I'd better go back to my writing and come back by the end of January.
P.S. Since tried the samples, I can't go back to Mozart, who can help keeping my mind in peace and thus speed up my writing, anymore... I'll count on Hymmnos till the end of wirting then, lol
