What are you listening to?

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Hm I'm unsure if I would like them personally, since one reason why I don't like Dream Theater is that they're much softer than most of my favorite metal bands (about 90% of Dream Theater songs from what I heard seemed to be ballads). Not that I dislike metal ballads, but I prefer having a few mixed with faster songs, Sonata Arctica style.

On a side note, I wonder if I posted those Sonata Arctica songs on CW before? They were recorded back when the band was called Tricky Beans (or Tricky Means at some point) and the cover artworks in those videos is just fanart someone made in 2008, but those songs were from demo tapes recorded between 1996 and 1998:

A bit lost (lots of punk rock influence lol)




Blackout (my favorite, now called Flag in the Ground but it's way different)


Frog Feet


Appartment 54 (remade as Cinderblox in 2011)


Peacemaker (this version sounds closer to punk rock than power metal. They even say USA in the song )


Addict (now called Sing in Silence. I prefer the new version actually)


I'm Hunted (a remake of this is available on the 15th anniversary Ecliptica album, but exclusively in Japan)


This version of Talluhah sounds a little like 70's material lol but I kinda like it:


And something different in style (I forgot which song this was remade into)



Among their older songs, my favorite is Blackout and Frog Feet.

But yeah, most of Haken's stuff is more on the soft rock side than on the metal side.

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Yeah i know they have fast stuff but overall it seemed like the vast majority was on the slow or soft side. Kinda like most Rhapsody of Fire albums released after 2004, but $10 cheaper.

As I'm typing this, I'm at work bored out of my mind so I have a playlist of songs from "Foonmix 1, Plus, & 2" playing on the work computer.  They include songs from Yamajet, Is-m (A.K.A. Parakeet 41), & Cranky.

I see you're a lot into Japanese stuff too. I tend to mostly listen to eurobeat when it comes to Japanese stuff but I also liked SSH a lot, as well as Falcom Sound Team JDK.

Also some of my songs have Japanese or Eurobeat influences (La Porte du Soleil, Eurobeatizer, Massaji, that one unfinished cover of Roni Griffith - Desire, Super Ultimate Mega Doom and Return from the Forbidden Land)

This guy is always uploading the highest quality video game rips available, it's crazy.

[Dream of Omnimaga]

I guess what you mean by high quality there. So bad it's good

Actually, some of those fake rips don't sound that bad.

[Yuki]

Nah, I mean, it's always a mix with something else (mostly the Flintstones theme), and most of them are really well-done. And full of funny inside jokes, too. It's also on Bandcamp, if you want.

Oh, also, new Dance Laury Dance EP.

[Dream of Omnimaga]

I didn't know there was a new DLD EP until last night. I'll be sure to listen to it soon. Shame that you can't come to the concert friday though, @Juju D:

[Yuki]

Not yet confirmed, though.

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Oh ok. I thought you had something with the MLP guys.

[Yuki]

Yeah, if it wouldn't be too expensive to go there.

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Where is it?

[Dream of Omnimaga]

I just found this highly-elaborate Music 2000/MTVMG song by Dimon9540



I rarely see MTV Music Generator music that has so much details. Also I like the melody. I don't know if he uses real instruments on top of the song or if it's 100% Music 2000 but the result was cool nonetheless.

[Dream of Omnimaga]

Ys music is awesome, especially Ys VI, Ys Complete I & II PC (not the 1st PC remakes but the 2nd ones) and Oath in Felgana.
