i find it interesting how flower has been (more lately than before) the subject of songs with confusing notions on gender and identity. i feel theres been an uptick in that. definitely welcoming more.
i want to keep the name "xed" for my utau but i also admittedly like the aesthetic of japanese characters for a name instead bc thats kinda 'image' i want my utau to play. like a typical japanese virtual idol. but honestly unsure how i potentially edit their name to fit the characters....
the song crime & punishment is a song i still find nostalgic and honestly if a cover of it doesnt sound robotic and 'low quality' i just cant hear it! im just so used to how that song sounded at its time of release lol
i could go on FOREVER about what a good, easy to read vocaloid design is tbh. i study character design and its what i tend to specialize in so noticing when its hard to simplify a design comes to my mind often
dug up an old cover i had started of my utau dueting with flower in "magnet" and ya know what. im gonna be self indulgent tonight and fix it up with my 2020 bank. ill post it tomorrow. kinda in a mood to actually get on reviving my utau so, maybe some designs will be brainstormed this week too
spike is definitely one of those utaus where on the surface ur like. oh yeah, cute dog. but then you learn his lore and find out he was a homophobe. hes not anymore but god. what a character trait to give (hes also been updated as asexual now? i think trying to explain why he was repulsed before??)
i dont keep up w spike or the creator at all but they still draw art of their utau which looks lovely!
i hear a lot of english tts on things like your video's for commentary and like, a lot of tiktok. and i just gotta say i absolutely hate that "cheery" female voice i hear all the time on tiktoks. its so obnoxious djfhgjdhfg
while the gumi popipo cover i know i watched before it gone, i still have a MMD video of another one saved as my very first video in my YT faves, from 2012. and i left a comment on it......
i pretty much never comment on youtube videos so its incredible i actually commented on this so long ago
did anyone here ever use 8tracks?? i used it heavily in 2013-2016 when i was super into fandoms.... and i totally forgot i made some flower mixes when i first started getting into vocaloid with flower.... very nostalgic seeing again (it includes some very old, lost covers i made too)
this site is kinda broken now but i wanna link these- they should play fine because theyre covers but i suggest using chrome, this site is mega broken on firefox.
man i dont plan to go on about this all too much but now seeing xingchen it really rings to me how much a lot of these designs- namely ones like... sonika or xingchen dont even ring to me as minors when i see them. im not... into lore or whatever canon companies write, i never seek it out. i see these designs that honestly just look like sexy adults and then boom- theyre minors. this is probably the worst sideline result to the normalization of sexualizing these characters this way. like, some of them do just look like kids but a lot of them are matured way past the age theyre apparently supposed to be. and you cant blame casual lurkers like myself for never questioning if they were an adult or not.... and that sucks, bc i am very aware of the affect of this kinda impression. ive been directly affected by the casual pedophilia racing through spaces like this. no one is truly immune to it and this is the problem with the way its been normalized.
sorry for double post, i just dont want to comment on the overall thread
everyones posts in the fee thread are great and well thought out, no issues there. i just dont plan to comment bc its a very triggering topic to my own history on the internet, affected by such pedophilic content, and i cant put myself through reading it when i know everyones on the same page anyways. i think ive already vented my feelings of disconnect from vocaloid fandom and no doubt that whole thread summarizes why. loli vibes have even leaked into flower with her Talk design art style and its 100% why i project my hope of flower not being revived for cevio when cevio is showing itself to be like...this.
i am glad i am in an area where the majority looks at fee and things its gross. but its a shame knowing this is only a small corner of the fandom. i hate being around this kinda thing.
man its been so long since i tuned. i realize i tend to speed through things all the time, tuning included. im trying to take my time in a way that i am pleased with the process and results tho. but i also accept my tuning style is quite simple.
considering how cevio has been doing................im almost kinda okay having heard zero progress of what is to come of v flower cevio AI lol... do i want more flower? of course. but if that project dies and maybe springs up in some other form not related to cevio, thatd be neat too.... i can hope...
something kinda tells me its flat out cancelled or, with how rocky cevio has been, just incredibly delayed.
i forgot i had a wip cover of "girl like you" (yes, from barbie princess and the pauper) and decided to slap maki and eleanor on it for fun and man. they sound so good together (mainly speaking for maki english ai)....... i wanna finish this cover but im not sure who with..... i only have maki ai lite so
it is so interesting to me how flower's popularity as a vocal has really exploded. like i think it just feels normal now how much shes being used but as someone whos been a fan since her release, it was really a slow build, and almost feels like it just exploded after some interesting unique takes on songs w her voice started to catch people's attention. i cant be the only one seeing this lol.... shes definitely had more popularity in time but im quite shocked by how many *popular* original songs i see coming up with her.
i am quite content in this little space of just opening vocaloid when i please, messing with some files and listening to voices, and just closing it after. like im just listening to things for me, cuz i like the voices, and i like that! maybe ill mix a cover, but i dont rly have the guilt to post it. maybe ill share some soon, but its quite nice to just being in my own bubble again.
ummm would anyone with japanese knowledge be willing to help me understand the password for a person's USTs..? idk if thats bad to ask;; i think i understand what it should be, but i dont have the knowledge on kanji to convert the password correctly....
my dad's the real mvp, still forwarding every vocamerica email too me. not missing a beat. i explained whats gone on with it lately and hes like "well that sucks" and keeps sending them to me. i get them, i glance at them, i delete them
