Its pretty late though with only few minutes left to go before the day end but lets not the party stop, shall we? In this post, I will feature some news and songs to go with the celebration~ First! MitchieM obligatory song, Birthday Song For Miku!

Birthday Song for Miku Site Now Interactive

Add caption

MitchieM tweeted earlier that the Birthday Song for Miku website has been updated to an interactive site, thus out of curiosity (And also because I sent two messages when the website started accepting Birthday wishes on the 8th of August), I checked it out. And it was ingenious, meaningful, and emotional.

Max Factory 1/7 Megurine Luka Tony Ver.

Got my Max Factory 1/7 Megurine Luka Tony Ver. a couple of days ago, and I've decided to do a review of this magnificent rendition of our favourite, husky Vocaloid.

It's been a while since I've done a figurine review, and this'll be the first on VocaParty, so do pardon the photo quality, as I'm also working with very limited lighting equipment and a 4-year old digi-camera.

[Album review] Hearts*Capsule

Hello there, Vocaloid fans! 久しぶり！

There have been so many Vocaloid albums being released this year during VOC@LOID M@STER events this year. In fact, there will be another event - VOC@LOID M@STER 22 Night Special on Hatsune Miku's 5th birthday - 31st of August, 2012! (link) Guess there'll be a huge celebration event of Miku's 5th birthday at the event!

So with so many albums in the market, it's been a tough choice to decide which one to listen and review. However, with the recent discussion on the identity of Vocaloid in M.V.P page (link) I think the Hearts*Capsule album by the producer Colate fits the topic of discussion perfectly. Check out the crossfade below:
