- おふろ ♨ タイム -

This week's ranking has a lot of awesome old stuff from the previous week, and tons of new ones worth listening to. Our number 1's pretty strong so no one managed to topple it off the rank, but there are also a few worthy rises, some even from below rank 30.

Also, if you haven't checked it out yet, please do comment on this post. Thank you!

Apologies again for the lateness. If you've read the utaran, you already now my problems with my Internet. I just hijacked someone's net for a while so I can post this. Again, lack of witty comments and stuff :(.

takamatt

takamatt is a fairly new Vocaloid producer, having started uploading songs only last October 2009. He has released seven songs in all, the most popular of them, probably the one looping in your player right now: Just A Game (okay, my player, my bad XD). He initially used Miku in his uploads, although he has branched out to using Append, GUMI and Kaai Yuki in his works.

takamatt's style is mostly but not limited to catchy pop. Most of his songs have discreet repetitive beats that make them very loopable. He does both ballads and upbeat songs well, with the ballads usually accompanied by strings. Aside from being super catchy, his works are "singable", meaning they sound very nice when sung by people. It could be because of the pop factor :). His Vocaloids, while not impeccably tuned, sound nice with his melody. His Miku is tuned high to the point of straining, while his Gumi is tuned from medium to impossibly low. Despite that, none of them sound hard on the ears. They sounds a little wobbly at times (especially in his earlier songs), but the beat of his songs makes up for that.

sample songs
• Combine Moon (Miku)
• Ai no Yorokobi (GUMI)
• Urara Urara ka (Kaai Yuki)
• Life (Append)
• Just a Game (GUMI)

takamatt's Etude No. 3 was what got me into following his works. I don't find his tuning of GUMI very impressive, but he composes very nice, easy-to-listen music. When I say his music is not very complicated, I meant it as a compliment since it means it doesn't take any effort to listen and like his songs. Of course my favorites from him would be his GUMI works although I really like Yuki's song. Also, Miku's "Life" kind of reminds me of the Beatles for some reason ;).

This is the monthly ranking for the month of June. For some reason, they only did 30 this month.

This is a good week for uploads and pull-ups. We get Rin, GUMI and Miku in the top 10, a couple of Hayabusa dedications and some oldies surprisingly returning to the top 30. Of course, there's also wowaka's classic works haunting us XD.
