[Event] - Comiket 77
[Original] - Kid's Festival ~ Innocent Treasures

Well, there's a hip to the hop to the hip hip hey and-a happening in my head at this moment, so try to bear with me. I suppose we'll go more of a "less babble more action" moment in here now.

VUTTER was actually a pleasant surprise. I didn't know his circle... Betakobo as it goes, much less that one other guy rushuu whose presence you will surely note out in this one.
I don't remember keeping the greatest of tabs in this kind of music, mostly because most of its substance is brought upon the whim of the occasion rather than the technical instrumental performance and crazy guitar shreds y'know, the kind of stuff I like... But this is actualy really good in a couple of extents, don't you agree?

It's definitely their best in Mezzo Forte, although it is righteously an amazing album by all the parts.

The way it progresses, this one, how it jumps from an imposing and impetuous feeling and raises into a series of wind instruments and all the string goodness you can come up with. There's a really tribal feeling to these guys I would say.

Even their website is frickin' hot, word. Check it out http://www.betakobo.com/
Obviously, mutual feelings go to the cover art.

Incidentally, this is where it hits the bird. This is exactly how I depict Kid's Festival ~ Innocent Treasures.
Imagine yourself waking up amidst the immaculate green landscapes of Gensokyo, each little bit you savor with your eyes is discovery upon discovery itself. As you graze the brewing wind and grasp the grass with your own feet, you realize you've overlapped into a new dimension not even the millions of years in science can delve within. This is the one moment, the one picture, diagram, and scent and color you could not sense until this day.

As you look down the ever-extending plains, a wind fairy gently touches you by the cheek and whispers into your ear:

"Welcome to Gensokyo."


Oye by the by, two parts upload. Lots of other uploads to come after that one, too. Goodiee
