Nico Nico Chorus~

[Suki.hime]

I'm on an infinite search for somebody that knows about Nico Nico Chorus aside from me telling them. While they're certainly... unique in much of the things they do, many of them are incredibly good at vocals... be it regular singing, rapping, or... yelling (no, not screaming, I mean yelling). So, this thread I will basically dedicate to the lovely NNC... even if it's just for my interest, OTL.

If anybody decides to join me in this, please try and post youtube vids if you can find them. Not everyone has a NND account.

Also... for anyone that doesn't have any idea what I'm talking about, NNC is a group of people on Nico Nico Douga (think Japanese youtube) that cover Vocaloid songs, or 'singing robots'. Many of them have gone on to become independent with their own albums, and one's even been made into a vocaloid. They sing by themselves most often, but also do duets with chorus members they know in real life... and people will commonly mix their individual covers together. In this first post ever, that's what they did. The song is 'Meltdown', originally by Kagamine Rin, and is pretty popular. > w<

I don't speak Japanese, and I don't trust Google Chrome translation, so I can't all too easily navigate NND and find stuff like this. :/

[Suki.hime]

You ought to be able to find things like this on youtube, actually. Even looking up just their English names... you won't be able to find everything, naturally, but the things I post are actually all from youtube... what else do you think I should add to make things easier to find? >: Or is what you're saying not a bad thing? Yeah, you really shouldn't trust google translate. xD

'Lynne'
Original by: Miku
Cover by: Gero



Etc.: He's called Gerorin by some fans. xD He notably yells or screams in pretty much every song he sings, with great vibrato... And yes, he is screaming 'DARLING' in English.

[Zedekblue]

I don't really look things up on Youtube. :/

[Suki.hime]

Where do you? o wo;;

[Zedekblue]

Well, I mean that as in, I don't browse Youtube looking for videos. I don't really do that with anything... I only look new stuff up if I'm told to. :/

Then I guess there's no convincing you to follow much of what I post. |D But that's okay~

'Aimai Elegy'
Original by: Marina
Cover by: Soraru



Etc.: Marina isn't a vocaloid, but Soraru is an Utattemita that covered her anyway. The producer behind the song creates vocaloid songs for Gumi quite a bit. The video for hers is totally different, referencing the producer's other works, but Marina's pictured the same -- she's the girl with short brown hair. - u- b

Etc.: So calming... - u- Many other covers are more loudly passionate, and his cover is an exception.

'Just A Game'
Original by: Gumi
Cover by: Nero



Etc.: Nero is very popular, especially in his duets with Clear. - u- Their voices are a bit similar, though Nero's sounds a bit more 'masculine' to some. And then there's this cover...
