💮Small note: After editing and watching my reaction back, I am not fully satisfied with what all I said. This cold didn't help this week. I apologize!
The oportunity to see the compositional process from Miyako was such a cool experience. I know this is only part 1 of a 3 part series, but the fact that she could create what she did in an hour is crazy fast! Her piano skills seriously helps with her ability to write fast.
I will also say that since she adds string backi...

Hola famila!

Kita-san didn't know how to play guitar this whole time!
I know it's only episode three, but I seriously was thinking that there was another reason she refused to join a band. I do feel silly that I didn't think that it was Kessoku Band she left!
I am loving this anime. Thank you guys for telling me about this!

Thanks again to Heleqin for this suggestion!
This was a fun reaction to do at 2AM! I apologize as I was editing that I look like I was losing my mind.
After reacting to this it took me a little bit to actually wind down to sleep. The guitar solo wouldn't let me forget what it sounded like as I layed there in silence. I wasn't mad about it though!
I hope you enjoy this welcoming cool style rock music into your ears this morning! It's so worth it!

I thank Russell for these scores. I can't believe they have been sitting silently on my music stand waiting to be used!
This was a fun experience!
3 guitar parts?
...a synth part I didn't even really realize was there?
Misa's slaps to pick?
...AKANE abusing that double pedal?
The writing is a little harder to see with the shorthand in the score, but man was this worth it!
Also, below I have attached the translated front page so you can read what they...

I am so glad that I was reminded of this group. I had heard of them before, but have never actually dove into their music before. I have been told numerous times by fellow musician friends to check them out.
I'm a little ashamed that it's taken this long!
This is another small dream of mine. I wish I could participate in a ska band, but I would definitely have to switch to playing saxophone if I wanted that to happen.
I hope you guys enjoy this one as much as I did!

Hola Familia!
I am typing this at 3AM in the morning. If there are some typos, it's because of the sleepy sillys.
Here's the line-up for Sunday:

I am starting to think that I am all of these characters!
Did you have a hard time getting accustomed to talking to people at work? Did your job force you to be able to overcome anxiety or make it worse for you?

...with that being said, I will let the video speak for itself.

This is a video of how you do evolution the right way.
Every performance of this gets better. The orignal version is great to me. It's still early BM where we know Miku's guitar is still a prop, but seeing her playing in the Christmas acoustic concert and the Yokohama concert really felt like the band had come full circle.
I wanted to do this reaction because the comments under last week's YT reaction said that Akane was on cajon on this song. It's just fun to see her on something...

I feel like this fits in the folk-rock genre and I dig it. I picked it because I don't think I have heard Czech rock before. I could be really wrong though.
As many of you know, I am a huge fan of the Dave Matthews Band and this performance kind of reminds me of his concerts.
The concert seems so wholesome and warm. The use of strings along with the band really creates an almost fairytale experience. The violin soloist absolutely kills his side of the performance by playing lyric...

Hola familia!
Hope the weekend is treating you well!
I feel like getting into the swing of teaching after a long winter break and then some unexpected snow days has been rough on me and my students. My brain feels so foggy...and why am I so tired all the time? 😅
Let's talk about what's coming this Sunday!
BAND-MAID Sunday:
Today I discovered that I am Bocchi. 100%
Do you suffer from performance or social anxiety?

There is something comforting about the name of this K-rock group. I don't know why it makes me feel like I am being comforted somehow, but it brings me a sense of calmness.
The way the singer manipulates their guitar into acting like another vocal line in this performance is just beautiful. The way she sings adds to the experience. This whole band is just great!

I FINALLY REACTED TO PASSCODE!
I swear to you that this band has been on my list for a whole year and this is me just now getting around to it. For that, I am deeply sorry!
Good news is that there will be another reaction up on YouTube featuring one of their most recent songs.
I cannot wait to show this band to my older brother!

I forgot that I would receive a full firing squad to the ears in this song.
Akane surely spontaneously combusted during the first performance of this song. Maybe she goes super saiyan?
A song that doesn't feel like it should be able to stay together shouldn't be this good, but it is.
This track was so much fun to pull apart and see all it's working parts. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Hola Famila!
Another "later than I'd like" post of what's to come this weekend, but it's mainly because I got lucky this Thursday with a snow storm that canceled school giving me a 4 day weekend. I've been REALAXING...kind of!
Alright, here we go! New things this upcoming week!
BAND-MAID Sunday:
Patreon Extras:
NEW ADDITON! Wednesday ANIME REACTIONS!
misa, Misa, MISA!
...and Akane...
...and Miku, Kanami and Saiki, of course...
But this one really is all bout Misa and Akane for me. Lol.

DISCLAIMER! - I am NOT a drummer! If you want a more in depth explaination of HOW the polyrhythms in this piece are being performed, I would suggest this to a professional drummer/educator.
This. Was. An experience. I chose this reaction because not only do I love polyrhythms, but I do like a challenge. I feel like I did a decent job here. If I had to grade my approach, I would give myself a low "B."
I'm a teacher, what do you expect? I think of performances in grades. H...

The band members names are completely bizarre, but epic.
To me, this band looks like they could fit into the "emo" catagory, but their sound is hardcore punk rock style. I am a sucker for this kind of music. It reminds me of when I was a kid trying to figure out who I was.
This band is just a good time, really. Want to just rock out to a really fun song that you can thrash out to? This is it!

I had no expectations going into this reaction and I was extremely pleased.
VOLA was a fun band to be introduced to. Their description of their sound was 100% accurate.
The constant wall of sound coming at your ears is pleasing along with the stadium style vocals. The use of electronics was used in such a lovely way as well. The use of major and minor tonalities was cool as well!
I am definitely going to want to check out this band more!

This music video is pure art.
The music is art as well.
Where do I begin? The band has a dark sound and makes use of rhythmic patterns in their music. Is it like this for all their songs?
I don't even know where to start with the vocalist's voice. She has such a warm and deep voice, but then she can give a DEEP growl. I was super surpsied by this.
This is going on my yoga for musicians playlist!

I might need to take back what I said last week.
Chemical Reaction is...it's pure gold, guys...! The overall loud level and the crunchiness of the guitars, epic bass lines and that well known drum part...
This made me feel like I was listening to a "lighter" version of Rammstein's "Du Hast," which is the only song I know from them.
Anyway, this was a fun song to listen to as well as watch the magic happen in the score!

¡Felices fiestas!
I hope your Christmas was bright, your 3rd day of Chanukah great, and your 2nd day of Kwanzaa is beautiful!
I cannot wait for the new year! Start thinking about your resolutions! I would love to hear them.
Also, sorry for the lowered opacity videos on YouTube lately. I sat and recorded a decent amount of videos one night and most of them just so happened to be blocked.
Let's get to the weekend line-up shall we?
I have had a string of bad luck lately with blocked videos. Unfortunately, it won't be the last one too.
This performance was sooo good that it needs to be seen FULLY.
