Producer Spotlight: Caz
I'm posting them early again since I am starting my classes again every weekends, which means my free time is even less now xD. Anyway, I've been spotlighting ballad and pop song composers recently, so let's have someone more hardcore :).
Caz
mylist | site | blog | community | KarenT profile | HearJapan profile
Caz is not so new in the Vocaloid community, having started uploading his own works October last year and continuing to do so until now. He currently has nine works up, two of which you might have heard of, especially if you have seen that certain recent amazing PV.
Caz's specialty is Vocaloud/Vocarock and his music utilizes very strong guitars and drums. He's not as intense as, let's say UtsuP or Yuyoyuppe when it comes to screamo, but his melodies are enough to make your heart drum against your ribcage, if I could be so poetic XD. His style can be likened to buzzG or otetsu, just louder and more forceful. As expected from a Vocarock composer, most of his songs use angry drums and guitars, although he has some songs where he goes out of his way to be a little playful and lace his hard rock music with cutesy stuff reminiscent of K-on!/Haruhi elements.
His main Vocaloids are Miku and Luka, His Luka can be likened to buzzG's GUMI, soft and mellow against strong backgrounds. His Miku is high-pitched and steely but doesn't sound bad at all. Aside from composing Caz also sings, and sings even more intensely (he does screamo ; o ; ).
sample music
• Corruption Garden (Luka)
• a tail of the wind (Miku)
• Excalibur (Luka)
• Ru Ru Magical Rukaruhoi (Luka)
• Blind Memories
sample songs/covers
• I am a super man
• Draw the emotional

I remember saying I do not like screamo/Vocaloud much, but Caz works, while loud, aren't really hard on the ears. Even if it's hard rock, the instrumentation is wonderful and works with Luka's/Miku's voice without sounding screechy or weird. The Vocaloids themselves aren't strained. If you like otetsu, buzzG or Yuyoyuppe (just of a tamer kind? XD), I highly suggest listening to Caz. Also, you have to watch the PV I linked above. It's full of awesome, I don't even...
