never understand redstone well enough to even make typical note block machines , so this is mechanically incomprehensible , but look at how cool this is . if only download link was some normal mediafire link just to play around , rather than promo for discord server . hate when people do that .

random but fun little find !
kossai: masculine form of kossai, cute wink (Default)


this show up in subscription feed today , and love to see stuff like this . as much as might also love granular , colour-coded organisation porn , that is just not how brain always work ! always good to see people talk about how these systems can fail , especially when people learn to tie organisation into aesthetics just for sake of aesthetics . might look very pretty to decant pantry contents and line up nice and neat , but how many people will find that actually usable and maintainable ?

anyway , rant aside , here is this cool video !
kossai: masculine form of kossai, cute wink (Default)
no specific video to highlight , but really like swell entertainment . occasionally talk about events and failures therein , as well as breakdowns of recent big things that happen on places like tiktok , with discussions about scams and red flags especially .

not really invest in these spaces , but still nice to know what happen and - especially in case of events - learn some things that never really have to consider before . not sure would ever be able to go to anything like this , but always good to know about yellow flags , red flags , what to expect , and what not to do .

so first of all , kossai find this video about machine gen music that hop aboard playlist trend . this is not really about sure identification of machine gen music , but some red flags - same sort of things kossai notice - as well as just rant of frustration .



... and through comments , kossai learn that since november of 2024 , well-known royalty free artist kevin macleod / incompetech no longer personally make music at all , rather machine generate .

think this is especially shameful to happen - clearly have skills , but rather than admit to burnout or creative rut , just replace self with machine . at least very clearly label for now , so these might be useful to learn machine gen music tropes and know for sure actually machine gen . with other channels this is not hard to guess , but still without direct confirmation , might be slightly apprehensive .

holy shit please watch this .
OK , well , those who never watch winx will have absolutely no context on this ... how to explain .

after basic magic winx and charmix powerup , enchantix was first actual separate form for characters . this come with entirely new sequences and outfits :


these enchantix forms also extremely emotional , as need to earn through some form of sacrifice , hardship , and character development as such . enchantix also function as sort of transition into adulthood - before nickelodeon swoop in , characters did actually age with each season , so characters start to turn 18 , or 19 for stella . for this reason , there is definitely something of mature , ethereal air to these transformations . absolutely beautiful , but in some ways that can sort of hinder little personality quirks and playfulness - not to even start on aisha , who get sequence of least length and detail .

then there was believix . while enchantix root in worlds of magic dimension and demand heroic sacrifices , believix is about ... well , belief in fairies . so believix root in earth , where people largely no longer believe in magic or fairies . these outfits take on cute , casual tones , to better reflect earth setting - and unlike enchantix , everyone get to be playful and fun ! enchantix feel like this serious transition into adulthood , believix feel like realisation that maybe not so much is different after all , in best ways .

so like ... really feel something special to see someone work hard at this project , put together beauty of enchantix forms with playfulness of believix . description state this project take years , and can understand why !

so glad to stumble on uncle frogface and koolkookykreatures , lovely little craft videos with some nice chatter . never actually done any needle felt before , would be afraid to mess up beautiful kit ! but honestly , these pebbles could turn out just as pretty , with nothing to really get wrong ... hehehe . maybe that will have to be project some day .
kossai: masculine form of kossai, cute wink (Default)


so truly love videos on historical fashions and crafts ! there is still etsy shop for this company as well - not cheap , but for this amount of work and care , should not be cheap ! maybe some day would be able to justify one of these brooches , hehe .

to sort of follow from yesterday - one of first examples kossai find of modern music with traditional japanese instruments ! still in love with this one , bad apple is so fucking good . performers and credits list in description , but just in case somehow that disappear , arrangement is by yorihide fukushima . :)



for one with vocals , there is also this one by kyounosuke - will notice many lyrical changes , more in line with olden japanese ! kyounosuke is honestly treasure .

usually when new age soundtrack-type artists name tracks as things like japanese garden can expect to hear like , koto and shamisen , maybe some little shouts , but all still very western musical style .
these things can sound nice too , but very much different from actual historical japanese music , and even from modern-historical fusions by japanese artists . opinion of whether or not these bad to exist at all will depend person by person and also case by case , but if nothing else , think should at least acknowledge this gap of difference and not try to present as equal accuracy . ( which unfortunately some artists do fall into that . )

but just recently ... come across someone who did not even give that much effort . japanese garden track , with only barest imitation of japanese instruments , certainly no japanese style . congratulations sir , this might just be worst attempt - still pretty , but there is nothing japanese about this garden !

anyway , on relate note . this concern " desert level " style of music specifically , but would really recommend this video by farya faraji :

kossai post april fools joke of UTAU cover over on tumblr , and would say this is typical vocaUTAU joke - just terrible vocals and terrible mix , maybe change around some lyrics for fun .

here is one exception to rule :


this voicebank mostly sing in english , japanese , and welsh , so ... time for hindi ! obviously can not make comment on fluency of hindi , but love this idea - and pretty much hinge on multiple language capability , when so many voicebanks single language .

completely random youtube find ! creation of little eclectic wearable cuff :)
kit creator do not seem to carry these kits right now , so will have to curate bits and bobs personally - but then , any crafter probably already know how to do that :D
feel inspirations already ... not even at home with all of crafty goodness !

partially overhaul genre system to put everything in mini stories . find easiest to sort things in these genres through pictures and stories , and then just sort of go from there with how differentiation lead to all these micro-genres - like different kinds of watery environments , or steps of journey .
so for example one story , which label genres from b1 to b5 , go through times of day . early morning , lively afternoon , magical evening , night time , and then soft sleep .

so far have stories with labels from A to K . not all of stories so far in perfect shape , but think this is very fun way to do things ...
how about this - give kossai letter from A to G , and will give little story of songs !
kossai: masculine form of kossai, cute wink (masculine)
have thought maybe fun to explain these ! sort of break these in categories , because that is sort of what use to figure out where things go in first place .
genre names come from various places , some come from songs or games or otherwise . some of these also very imbalance , and plan on continue to re-sort songs of huge genres to hopefully help balance , so things might still change again . this collection is at least 4 years old and start with only half as many categories , so , some music would fit better in newer ones but overlook and never change .


kossai: masculine form of kossai, cute wink (Default)
well , repost . did not get any questions last time , and slightly change list since then , so might as well try again ?

choose from " genre " names , and kossai will give random song off shuffle of that genre . some themes obvious , others probably not so much . differences between these can be pretty minute , and sort of hard to pin down .
ask for several genres if want ! just please not this whole list .
  1. around the faerie ring
  2. as she flows
  3. autumn's embrace
  4. beyond the gate
  5. born of ice and snow
  6. cheerful blooms
  7. dancing breeze
  8. decaying secrets
  9. distant rain
  10. early bird
  11. falling for the faerie
  12. feeling at home
  13. flowering grove
  14. forest deep
  15. frogsong
  16. getting tricksy
  17. his call on the wind
  18. into the depths
  19. loving lullaby
  20. lunar revelations
  21. mind of marshmallows
  22. no longer home
  23. pass into the dreaming
  24. quieting mind
  25. shadow and rot
  26. sorrow's song
  27. sun's grasp
  28. twinkling stars
  29. the north star
  30. the yearning burning
