also i've been holding off on posting songs i've liked since noms so i guess i might as well throw them down now

Kanade Izuru - Pretender (from one of his early singing streams)
https://youtu.be/u8gyVOP0qSQ
this was in the post-topic last time but somebody offered to translate it since then so eh

obake - hope
https://youtu.be/90jgCjCnZVg
it's the same obake that did that "Virtual Youtuber no Inochi" remix from last time's post-topic i mentioned snubbing this time. seems he's changed his name to 0b4k3 since then. I've shared this song with a couple of other people but i've gotten negative reactions from both of them (one said it was the most boring song they'd ever heard and the other legitimately didn't even consider it music whatsoever), so I already kind of think it's a song only i would like but oh well i'm sharing it anyway

Roppo Rikuru - Fusen
https://youtu.be/zQPkx7n-o2M
That Enma Ruri original song happened because of this Botchi Boromaru group (responsible for that BOTCHIBOX album i think i linked some songs from in the past). I didn't notice that they also provided a song for this person around the same time until fairly recently... It's not anything that special, but i'm glad that she actually got a song in the first place. In her 3-person group, one of the members has more than 10 times as many subscribers as her, and the other has a rapidly growing chinese following on Bilibili, whereas she's still regularly streaming games like Dragon Quest 11S and Atelier Ryza 2 to under 10 viewers... I'm not sure how this song happened, but between her and Ruri, my opinion of them is that Botchi Boromaru might as well be saints.

Shikura Riwa - Defy!
https://youtu.be/0Ze0GlXxfiU
this person not only made this song herself but also the music video. She's pretty cool. This song's pretty cool!

dingerbox - puerto
https://youtu.be/_ijSnIuB5AU
one of the biggest discoveries i made since noms was this dinger person. they're (she's?) a self-proclaimed genius amateur musician who's been making some pretty great free bgm lately. tries out a lot of different genres, some kind of suck, but some are kind of great. i think this was the first one i really noticed that made me realise "wait, this person's kind of great". There are quite a good number of other ones also worth mentioning but i don't think i exactly want to outright flood this topic like i did last time so uh, if you're interested after this one, by all means feel free to blindly check their other stuff

oh yeah, also, i posted that 21st century schizoid man jam session video that they organised already, but actually getting people together for big group projects seems to be a thing they have a knack for in general, even having arranged a big Kyoto Animation group medley a year after the fire... https://youtu.be/O0JgMS1wKQo
it's a real shame they're not popular because they're definitely doing a lot of good for the scene

Ringring - Ringring to Asobou (Let's play with Ringring)
https://youtu.be/mSMD2MvVM7w
slapping this in the middle of this pack immediately after kyoani feels is probably quite foolish when it's maybe my favourite music video of last year but i'm too lazy to re-sort everything. Like Shikura Riwa, she did the music video (and art) too, though compositional credits belong to someone else here. Honestly that's fine though, it's a song that does everything it set out to do flawlessly.

Enma Ruri - Dreaming In The Night
https://youtu.be/SDbD2vgSbis
Ruri's 2nd original song, made possible by virtue of her involvement on the entas album prequel... album, which it was on. It's got some EDM trappings so this was a little bit of a hard sell to me, but it's grown on me quite a bit since then. I think it plays to her strengths quite well. In a stream around the release of her first original song, the two members of Botchi Boromaru mentioned how they considered this cover of hers to be really good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axbe4_XgtCU and i have a feeling yuzen here may have been inspired by it, as it likewise demonstrates her knack for unconventional pitches. Better than Hinoko.

ViANKiE - HIGHWAY
https://youtu.be/sSmWD3gLRVw
Ruri's song wasn't what i was most excited by though, this was. ViANKiE got an original song shortly before the release of this album, but it was an atrocious dubstep-filled mistake. I don't know how that one turned out so badly, but fortunately, the stealth release of this song more than made up for that. City pop was Emma Hazy Minami's comfort zone, and for the longest time i was convinced it also had to ViANKiE's... but i never expected she'd actually get such a song.

Yamamii - Plastic Love
https://youtu.be/-M_eU3TS1jM
speaking of city pop... (i wasn't going to include this but it was just too easy, being next on the list)
Yamamii is basically the vtuber equivalent of Camellia. He's pretty fun and quite a good musician, but memes are his lifeblood. Not really the best singer, but not bad either.

Nanahira - Crash Banjikyusu (cover of that cursed music video from one of the japanese crash games)
https://youtu.be/xKDnmx46nq4
speaking of camellia and meme songs... (i also had to)
Arrangement credits go more to Sumijun more than Camellia but i bet he was the one who suggested covering it

Yuzuha - Midnight Storyteller
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxiHXSwTeN0
not much to say here. i only found out about this in azki's 48 hour music stream a month or two ago and haven't checked it since, but it's a good song

Ayana Nana - Rainy Magic
https://youtu.be/jNonXYqU81I
Ayana Nana's that person from last time that inexplicably only has like a hundred youtube subs despite having over a hundred thousand on bilibili. She's still unpopular now, but she's posted a few more good covers here and there, as well as this original song. I like it, it's really quite relaxing.

waslemon - rainy
https://youtu.be/WU6Ar5SLV1s
speaking of rain... (okay i'll stop doing that)
MuMenkyo vocals. A rainier mood.

Kaf - Devour The Past (Live ver)
https://youtu.be/NxELvV-V24k
ensuring exposure to kaf lives get passed through. (this is from the 2nd live though... or technically, the 1.5th, as it was just the 2nd, revised performance of her first live? i wish there were any archives of it besides this clip... this was from right around when covid initially started hitting japan hard, so it ended up being a weird, streamed live concert with nobody physically attending. Her actual "2nd live" ended up being really different, with bizarre plastic model-looking 3D models that make it hard to recommend

Kitakami Ton - Anti-Joker (cover)
