Did anyone else bring music when they arrived? If so, can you send me the files? This phone has a lot more storage than my old phone and my MP3 player combined.

My music didn't get brought with me; however, there is some interesting music around on these devices. It's not what's from home, but it's there.

[afoolshope]

Do you know where I can find it?

[penpoint]

Yeah. It took a bit of clicking through something called an app store.

[ Listen he's like 10 years too early for it. ]

There was an app for music in there.

[afoolshope]

[Smartphones were only just barely making headway in Japan at the time, so it's the same for him. He had a flip phone before he died, so.

Still, he managed to find the app store and after typing in music, found a few apps.]

I see it, thank you. I will have to check this out and see what kind of music is popular here too.

[penpoint]

It's not too different from styles you're probably used to hearing. It's the same for me, as well.

[ At least he's not disappointed! ]

[afoolshope]

Oh, that's good to hear. Although I don't mind finding new music either. Anything strike your fancy?

[penpoint]

I listen to a lot of variety because when you produce art, it's hard to produce a good variety if you always have the same thing in your ear. Here, there's a few good playlists with really relaxed music. Not usually my style, but it's been effective. If it's yours I'd search for a playlist called "Working Hour".

I have my laptop with me.

I can send you all the Vocaloid songs that I have, as well as the ones that our music circle made together if you don't have any strong preferences.

[afoolshope]

Vocaloid... I think that's only a few years old where I'm from. I didn't have a chance to check it out, so I would definitely like yours if you don't mind. I like checking out new things. (ᵔ◡ᵔ)

[applehearted]

I'll give you a few personal recommendations, then.

[ And attached are a few Vocaloid songs: Deep Sea Girl, Sadistic.Music∞Factory and This is the Happiness and Peace of Mind Committee.

She'll also attach to this post three of the songs that she's done with her group: Saisei, Bug and Lower. ]

[afoolshope]

Hm... a lot more sophisticated than I expected for the vocaloids. I think I prefer yours though.

The synthesizing is nice, but a real voice hits different. You and your group do a great job.

[applehearted]

Admittedly the Vocaloid songs I gave you were very much on the older side. I think there are some things that the Vocaloids can do that humans can't exactly match up with--there's pros and cons to both.

But thank you; the praise means a lot. Both to me, and the rest of the group. I'll pass it on to the others.

[afoolshope]

Well, it will sound new to me either way. I hadn't really gotten into them back home before.

Are your friends here then?

[applehearted]

My entire unit is here actually, yes.

I have my laptop full of japanese pop, but also a birdbox with all music from home imaginable. It's from another world I was in.

I'm sure we could find a way to record the music from the birdbox.

[afoolshope]

A birdbox...?

I'll take the jpop though.

[saxsongs]

[he sends an image of the birdbox he has.]

It's basically a mechanical mockingbird.

I'll put them in compressed file and send them over once I'm done.

[afoolshope]

Great, thank you.

[ !!!!

She recognises this username... ]

Minato, is this you?

It's me, Ayaka! Sadly, I have no music with me...

[afoolshope]

Yes, this is Minato.

I'm afraid I don't know any Ayakas... I'm sorry.

[Sorry Ayaka, his Jikan memories didn't carry over. :(]

[mistsplitter]

My apologies, then.

I hope I didn't confuse you.

[afoolshope]

It's okay. I feel bad that I don't have any memories of you. Would you mind if we started over?

[mistsplitter]

Please don't feel bad. It is not your fault.

And if you would like to, I would like that very much.

[afoolshope]

Yes, I would. You said your name is Ayaka, yes? It's nice to meet you. :)

[mistsplitter]

Kamisato Ayaka, yes. But you may just call me Ayaka. (＠＾◡＾)

I've heard you can listen to music through an app. I haven't tried it yet, though, but it's said to have unlimited choices!

[afoolshope]

Yeah, someone else showed me the app just now. It has a lot of variety so it's going to take awhile to get through. Do you happen to have any favorites?

[mistsplitter]

As exciting as it is, I also don't know where to start. There are so many options to choose from, after all.

Do you have any recommendations?

I do not know if they would be to your liking, but I arrived with some of my music on a hard drive. I also intend to begin producing music as soon as I am established here.

[afoolshope]

There's very little I don't like, so I wouldn't mind still giving them a try. What kind of music do you produce?
