Producer Spotlight | Nanahoshi Kangengakudan (Fujun Isei Kouyuu-P) / 七星管弦楽団(不純異性交遊P)

Long title is long

Hello everyone! Its time for Producer Spotlight! Today, I'm gonna introduce a VOCAROCK producer, Nanahoshi Kangengakudan, or his P name Fujun Isei Kouyuu-P. Let's have a listen at my favourite song from Nanahoshi-san!

Shuumatsu no Mythologia 終末のミュートロギア

Nanahoshi-san's music style is more focused on VOCAROCK , all of his work has electric guitar as the main accompaniment. He started producing Vocaloid songs since year 2010 and has been gaining fame steadily. Here's his hit song , Sefure セフレ.

Nanahoshi-san has a 'trademark' of his own. His songs usually have a electric guitar solo part just before the last chorus strikes. And because of his awesome performance, the fans named this solo part 'Super Nanahoshi Time'. (you can see Super Nanahoshi Time tags or comments at his videos) Nanahoshi-san usually records the guitar accompaniments while the other instruments are done using DTM (Desktop Music).

And here's a video of Nanahoshi-san playing the guitar part to one of his songs, CUNE TUNE. The original video has been deleted at NicoNicoDouga but I managed to fish it from Youtube

Here's some useful links!

Tidbit: Nanahoshi-san loves pantsu lol

DJ Hellcove: Friends.....

Thank God its Friday people! Maybe its time to ditch those hard works and hang out with friends at some restaurants, club or just simply shared glasses of Teh Tarik with your friends at nearby mamak stall. Fellow Malaysian will understand what I meant here. So thats it people, I decide to go with a theme today, that is FRIENDSHIP~ Enjoy.

But before that a small announcement, the recording for Mikupa and 39's Giving Day concert has been officially set for release 29th August 2012 in BD or DVD. Go to AmiAmi, to pre-order~

Alright now lets start on the music shall we?


First we will have a song about communication between friends, where sometime what came out from our mouth does not match what are really trying to convey. We yearn for someone to understand us, is what I think this song message is.

I give you, Outward and Inwards (外見と内面). Vocal Hatsune Miku DARK composed by scop, the same producer that make 'A Liar World'.  Enjoy it~

YT Link

The music and vocal arrangement will indeed give you thoughts and touches your heart. Next song we will have our ear entertained by another Miku song entitled Vacant Land of Earth (地球の空き地 ) composed by Harry. No, not that Harry. Its a song about losing someone, either loved ones or friends in a conflict of human beings.

In any rate, please enjoy the song.

Third song, a song with a question. Hatsune Miku again, singing a song composed by 宮沢もよよ , asking you, 'We are friends, aren't we?'

YT Link

Alright thats all folks, thanks for listening tonight and have a good Saturday tomorrow. Last song we will change theme a bit, because...it just unique. Hope you enjoy it. Until next time.

P.S: Its mikumix stuff.

Powerpuff Girls x Hatsune Miku Collaboration Announced

Powerpuff Girls, a nostalgic cartoon series from Cartoon Network, will be forming a collaboration with Hatsune Miku and Vocaloids this coming Summer 2012.

This collaboration is to commemorate the 10th Anniversay of Powerpuff Girls airing in Japan.
Having my favourite cartoon from my childhood to team-up with Vocaloid is truly a personal satisfaction.

The "Powerpuff Girls" characters were created by Craig McCracken back in 1992, with a prototype short-animation film aired in 1995. The first airing in Japan started since 2001, and is now broadcasted in 168 countries worldwide, while gaining popularity from a wide range of children. Hatsune Miku, a singing software called "Vocaloid" that "sings a song" based on the lyrics and notes input, using "Hatsune Miku" as the vocals. Products have been published under the Vocaloid name, from CDs to even holding a live performance.


This time, to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Japanese airing of Powerpuff Girls, a collaboration with Hatsune Miku has been formed. Vocaloids, such as Hatsune Miku, the Kagamine Twins, Rin and Len and even Megurine Luka, will be dressed in "Powerpuff Girl" costumes and deformed in accordance to the Powerpuff design for the heroines, Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup.


The world-famous characters are set to receive collaborative products, scheduled to appear one after another this summer. More information on the "Powerpuff Girls x Hatsune Miku" collaboration will be posted at the official website in the future.

Nendoroid Racing Miku 2012 ver. Preview Images

Coloured Prototype images of this year's upcoming Nendoroid Racing Miku 2012 ver. is now up on the Good Smile Company website.

This year's Racing Miku design is based on an illustration by GAN.  Stepping away from 2011's more mature look, 2012's Racing Miku has more of a cute feeling to her.

As shown, one of her two faceplates is a winking expression, based on the original illustration. Her twintails also seem to consist of at least two separate parts to allow for more dynamic posing of the hair. She also comes with arm parts that allows her to be posed in a saluting stance.

A bent leg part also enables her to be posed just like in another official illustration.

Of course, following previous Racing Miku versions, Racing Miku 2012 will also come with an open and closed parasol, as well as a miniature Good Smile Racing Nendoroid Race car, which she will be able to ride in.

And here's 31st rank and below.

Lat Miku Dancing on Your palm - Now available on Android

Tenorin, an augmented reality (AR) Android app by KDDI, that enables users to have character models dance on their palms, was recently updated with a new MMD model that features the popular Lat. Type Miku model.

The model's availablility was announced by renowned MMDPV director/creator MASATAKA, on his Twitter and Facebook page. The Lat Miku model herself (or itself?) is a winning design from a previous contest, the Tenorin Hatsune Miku Original Costume Contest in collaboration with PIAPRO.

Android users may download the free Tenorin app from the Google Play Store. Once installed, users will be able to download the Lat Miku mod for free via Tenorin's Market option.

MMD users may also download the model itself for usage in MMD at the Tenorin website.

And now for a little showcase of how the app works on my Galaxy Nexus. Note that the Lat Miku mod must be set as the default model first, under "Downloaded Data"

Users will first be asked to set their palms as shown on the screenshot above.

Once properly positioned, Miku will then appear on the user's palm and start dancing to a new song, Happy Happy☆Orange (ハピハピ☆オレンジ)

However, the palm detection may be a little fuzzy if the user's palm is not held still - Miku may disappear and re-appear all over the screen if not held correctly.

DJ Hellcove Time: Hang in there!

Yo, people! Its another week of waking up early and enduring the pain of dealing with daily life works. Sometimes a life of a NEET and hikokomori are tempting~ Just kidding, hang in there guys!

As usual, tonight I gonna entertain you with selection of Vocaloid songs I stumble in Nico~ But first, let me show you this video~

Oh, Japan. You never cease to amaze me :3

Let start off with something that is old but also quite recent, like this year recent. The first song is a duet between the duo Megurine Luka and Hatsune Miku and it has struck a first place in the Weekly Vocaloid Ranking once for its awesome PV and catchy beat.

Everyone, I present you Akatsuki Arrival by Last Note!

YT Link 

Ah, good song is good~ this song is the latest I heard from Last Note, hoping for more. The song can be purchased electronically via Hear Japan, click here to support the artist with your 50 Yen~

Alright then, let us proceed with the next song. This song is quite the unique one, as expected from the producer Pinocchio-P. A song with the message 'Love take many forms', I give you Hatsune Miku singing the song 'Do Not Kill The Love Song'. Enjoy.

YT Link

Third song is another duet. Another new song this week by Luka and GUMI with a nice illustration style PV. The song title is Unison, music arranged by emon and composed by Imama/ユニゾン. Enjoy~

Since its new, quite impossible to find YT link now, so sorry guys~

Anyway, forth and final song for tonight is called Catastrophe. The song is composed by 音坂 キョーヘイ , a work of Sound Factory. Let Miku and GUMI sings my goodbye for tonight, accompanied with awesome violin and piano arrange. Until next time~
