I like this man, I really do. He produces fine hardcore, which is always a plus in the market. The biggest issue with this guy... I can't explain it, but it seems some of his works are well planned but badly executed. Like, either the bassline is too loud or the tune overdrowns the rest, I can't point my finger on it. It seems he realized it himself, and so, decided to remaster many of his previous track and shoot them out with proper production values in this Comiket.

And while this particular track has almost zero improvement from the rest, I think it's one of his best. Moreover, I think Candid Friend is also far from ZUN's brightest outbursts of genius, I never digged it too much. The main difference here between this and the last track, besides the blunt rebassing remark that's part of the title, is what seems to be more of a rave intake on this one, raw, old school hardcore. At least, until the tune kicks in, then it's just probably the same as his last attempt.

It doesn't make too much sense but he's actually one of my favorite Hardcore artists. Moreso than his musical composition, I also love his novelty. Myonbel's covered down in her channel a pretty representative track of what I'm talking about, Hell for Frandle. THAT is one jolly spout of tingling awesome. By the way, there's also a remastered track of that one in this album, and it's like, twice the dose of batshit insane. He re-used the voice samples and twisted them in an even more awkward manner, it's really fucked up. I should up it someday later on. It's bloody frickin' blissful.

Probably one of the few Candid Friend arranges I will ever upload, for mentioned reasons. Even though, I must admit I like the antics behind the geeky kappa. As ZUN would say, "smart girls are cool".

Oh and, for god's sake, hold up until 0:43 which is where it really kicks in.

Thanks for listening!
