Synchronicity trilogy

I wanted to post it long time ago, but I was waiting for the last piece from the trilogy to be completed. I didn't know it got canceled and forgot about it for a while. But even without the third part, it is worth posting.

It has loads of story behind it. You don't need to know it to enjoy the videos, but in case you're interested, then as described by "DestinySeraphim" (scroll to comments):

Kamui Gakupo has doubts about the governance of the oracle over the lands due to the beliefs of dragonology due to the Dragon which must be appeased by the songs of a Diva, to prevent it from attacking the humans. Gakupo's grandfather was killed, probably by the dragon, and he probably sees the Diva system as something abhorent to him. Luka is that oracle ruling over the world. Kamui voices his opinions to Luka and is punished by him.

Cinnamon Philosophy - Review

The last post from Toomas reminded me of something - back in March a friend of mine visited japan, coincidentally it was 1 day after the Great Tohoku Earthquake. Her stay in Japan was short, but among other souvenirs, she brought me "a Miku album" which she picked out with care - a cute girl came to her and said "this came out yesterday, please buy it".

First off - this is not just a CD. It comes in a box that is about 2 CDs wide, the extra space taken up by a cute handkerchief. The design and overall quality are laudable, after all, this is OSTER Project.

Front:



Back, with the handkerchief:


Sadly, music-wise this album was far from impressing me. It has Miku, chibi Miku, Meiko, Kaito, Luka and the Kagamine twins, but after listening through the CD once more to make this review, I remembered why I shelved it back in march - it just does not have much appeal. The tracks are too generic and for OSTER Project, even too amateurish. The only track that I liked was Sweet Drops, but that was in the 1st Project Diva game, making it quite old. I would like to tell more about it, but as the CD didn't give me much, this would be all that I could muster.

Alice in Musicland

This got my attention in the last Vocaloid weekly ranking. Presented to you by OSTER Project, reinterpretation of Alice in Wonderland played and sung by Vocaloids. Available on album Cinnamon Philosophy. Great name :D


Nico link.

Digging a bit more around I found some Project Diva 2 videos of the same song like this where Miku has Little Red Riding Hood costume. But here's something more interesting, partly dubbed into English version of it, which does not suck. Really.


Here's their youtube channel, if you want to check out more.

Enjoy!
