| I'm looking forward to week 58 =3 |
 |
| Bad End |
 |
| I only care about Week 50 :) I'm a sucker for those .. |
| That probably leaves the Baccano OP home free...? Also, remember Chase Scene (or generally Frantic) week, buchou? =3 And I have no idea what " '95 on back" means. Enlighten me? |

| '95 on back: Pick anime music from 1995 or further back in time to celebrate the old school (maybe I should do 1990, huh?). My plan for week 48 was to troll with the "OK just nominate Tank! already" or something equally facetious. See if it has a dampening effect. |

zzeroparticle said: 54. Woodwinds (excluding saxophone) What about bagpipes? >:D |
| Sure! Bagpipes are fine by me. Can't speak for everyone else though. |
Anime Instrumentality - Anime music news and soundtrack reviews |
| Bagpipe classifies typically as a woodwind so I see no prob. I had a question about eyecatches. Does a song that only lasts 8 seconds but is played at the beginning (when the shows episode name appears) of the show classify as an eyecatch? |
| Oh, so Hidamari Sketch isn't swing? Would that kind of music be considered jazz-lite then or something? |

Anime Instrumentality - Anime music news and soundtrack reviews |
| Idk I didn't think there were too many "title screen" pieces. I can't think of many off the top of my head but alot of shows have eyecatches. I would just be worried about finding enough title screen pieces to fill a week. I could be wrong though. I can only think of like 2 off the top of my head. |
| If there's one thing I've learned from this club, it's that our collective knowledge is vast and fearsome indeed! |

Agrees on these two. *nods* A question though: On week 51, it's all about remixes, rearrangements, inspired by or vice versa, right? Do we have to mention from what or where that song or piece came from? ...and looking for eyecatches is hard. -_-" |

Lelangir said: zzeroparticle said: Oh, so Hidamari Sketch isn't swing? Would that kind of music be considered jazz-lite then or something? Well the fundamental element missing is improvisation, although that's sorta kinda expected in tv music. Hidasketch and, say, Kurenai display certain elements of jazz - mostly instrumentation and a few basic rhythmic elements - although in the end it gets kind of pointless to try and create an absolute point-based spectrum for 'jazz'. Even Bartender's OST was way more elevator music-based, IMO, except for one track that was similar to God Bless the Child. Looking with the improv factor in mind, I don't know if I can think of an anime soundtrack that really has it. =P Rhythms and instrumentation, yeah, but not improv. A shame. |
Anime Instrumentality - Anime music news and soundtrack reviews |
| I personally would see Hidasketch's music sort of like Smooth Jazz. Also I really have no idea how you would listen for improv in an OST. Bartender has a God Bless the Child -like track on it? Must dig that up. |

| Character songs, huh. So that means we're skirting over the "tracks that were actually played in an anime" rule? The all caps and exclamation point in Week 50 is ominous... |
 |
| Just for that week. Sometimes, it's nice to have a change of pace. |
Anime Instrumentality - Anime music news and soundtrack reviews |
| Character songs? Looks like i need to get out the PaniPoni Dash character collection again. |
| Suggestion: next week's theme would really be better as pre-1990, so we can have a 1990-2000 theme some time. |
| @lelangir: correct. |
Anime Instrumentality - Anime music news and soundtrack reviews |
| Regarding the eyecatches etc theme, perhaps that could be extended to also cover next episode preview music? A lot of soundtracks have specially composed pieces they use for those as well, and they can sometimes be a bit more substantial than a 10-second eyecatch piece, especially since elaborate eyecatches seem to be a dying art. |

Anime Instrumentality - Anime music news and soundtrack reviews |
| I personally rarely save that kind of thing when I DL an OST. Just like the TV sizes I tend to get rid of eyecatches and the like. I still have a few here or there but most of the time into the trash she goes. |
omo said: NegativeZero said: especially since elaborate eyecatches seem to be a dying art. K-ON? Not saying they don't still do them, just that it used to be that every show had 15-20sec eyecatches either side of an ad break. Nowadays it's a lot shorter and a lot of them skip them entirely and just have a quick title card flash or the like. zzeroparticle said: NegativeZero said: I'm somewhat opposed to that proposal if only because I want to do a preview music week too. :PRegarding the eyecatches etc theme, perhaps that could be extended to also cover next episode preview music? Fine by me. |
| Seeing as though week 60 is coming up, is there going to be a new list for the rest of the weeks? I want insert song week! |
| We have Celtic Week coming up. No nominating lake-y tracks though. Also, I fully intend for us to go international. |
Anime Instrumentality - Anime music news and soundtrack reviews |
| Yeah, I'll put those up in the next batch. Reminder to self that hip-hop should also represent, though I'm not sure how many hip-hop tracks people can come up with... |
Anime Instrumentality - Anime music news and soundtrack reviews |
| EDIT: Nevermind, stupid site wasn't showing me page 3 where the same demand for info on 61+ has been mentioned already. P.S. I have absolutely nothing for 'Celtic'. |
| We've had a few composer weeks so far, but we haven't had an anisong artist (or a group of them)-themed week before. How does having one of those sound? eg. JAM Project week? (which might include the stuff the individual artists both past and present have done, from Mizuki Ichirou to Okui Masami) I've Sound week? (KOTOKO, Kawada, Shimamiya, IKU, the early Lia stuff, etc) Mizuki Nana week? Ishikawa Chiaki week? (including her See-Saw stuff of course) among others. |
Ottocycle said: JAM Project week? (which might include the stuff the individual artists both past and present have done, from Mizuki Ichirou to Okui Masami) This is a good idea, especially if expanded to founding members' previous work too. I've Sound week? (KOTOKO, Kawada, Shimamiya, IKU, the early Lia stuff, etc) We've had a few of the better ones already, and a lot of I've's work is from games, but there's still probably scope for that Mizuki Nana week? You'd end up with about six nominations, if that. Ishikawa Chiaki week? (including her See-Saw stuff of course) Every single thing she's done for anime could be nominated and I don't know if you'd make it to 10. There's a few instrument types we haven't looked at as themes. Acoustic guitar and Sax come to mind, and I wouldn't be against a revisit of Piano as well. I also wonder if there's enough decent material to do a non-Japanese vocals theme. |
