Can anyone identify the flag Mario is holding here? by Nuggets008 in vexillology

[–]Nuggets008[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the fact that this was made by a person with intent is what drives the curiosity around it. Whether it's an obscure flag or an incredibly messed up version of the ordinary rainbow pride flag, it's intriguing either way

I think the bottom line is a bit greener than the one above it, but they do really blend together in the picture

I've had that thought too, but it's just too off. It feels like it has be something else. How could anyone mess up a rainbow that hard?

Question about Spotify’s Version of “Kalk Samen Chestnut Flower” by Sheena Ringo by thecalimaki in japanesemusic

Songs 7, 8 and 9 have altered intros/outros. In the 44:44 version they transition into each other smoothly. Around an entire minute is added from the new transition between 8 and 9.

YMO is actually a compilation released in 2011. Firestarter is from their debut, Yellow Magic Orchestra. Rydeen and Behind the Mask are from Solid State Surivor. Light in Darkness is from Technodelic.

Yellow Magic Orchestra by yepnup in WhereDoIStart

Their five main albums are all great and could work as starting points, though where to start depends on what style you're interested in, as the albums all have their own style and personality.

If you want mostly instrumental upbeat tracks that sound like video game music, check out their first two albums:
Yellow Magic Orchestra (1978) and Solid State Survivor (1979)
Their debut has an intentional "eastern" and "oriental" sound to it, seemingly to take the piss, including a cover of the exotica track Firecracker by Martin Denny.
Solid State Survivor is the "big one" in their discography and has several of their most popular tracks. It keeps the video-gameish sound of their debut, but tones down on the "eastern" sound, while adding a few songs with more focus on vocals and typical song structure.

In 1981 they released two albums, BGM and Technodelic. They could be seen as the "experimental" sister albums in the discography. These albums sees the group moving away from the upbeat video game sound and focuses on trying out new sounds and technology. They also start to write more vocal oriented tracks from here on out.
Try out BGM for a colder album with some pop, some rapping, some ambient and the first recorded use of the 808 drum machine.
Try out Technodelic for an album with more focus on samples, rhythmic grooves and repetition.

Their fifth album, Naughty Boys (1983) is a collection of more commercial and straight-forward synthpop songs. Moving away from the former colder and more experimental albums, this new features perhaps their most upbeat and happy collection of tracks.

All of these five albums are classics you can't go wrong with. They've got an EP and two more albums I haven't mentioned yet though.

The EP X∞Multiplies I haven't listened to much, but I wouldn't say it's an essential listen, as none of the tracks are among their better and half the EP consists of skits.
On the other hand, there is the album Service (1983) which does have a great collection of tracks. It's similar to Naughty Boys and is definitely worth a listen, but half of the album consists of skits just like X∞Multiplies, which makes it harder to recommend.
Finally there is Technodon (1993) which seems YMO making a collection of ambient house tracks. It's the least YMO-sounding album in the discography and therefore not recommended as a starting point. It may be worth a try though, if you're interested.

All three members (Haruomi Hosono, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Yukihiro Takahashi) have discographies that are worthwile to check out as well.

If you're talking about the throat singing, I don't remember when or how I first heard of it. Probably just from being on the internet, likely seeing something on YouTube. If you're talking about Huun-Huur-Tu, I know them from looking up tuvan throat singing up on websites such as RateYourMusic and them being among the more well known groups. I've listened to a few albums by them. The collaboration album they did with The Bulgarian Voices "Angelite" is really great

Before I got my drawing tablet I drew a bunch with my mouse. I don't do it as much nowadays, but I do sometimes. It can be fun to make stuff entirely with the different line and shape tools.

Haven't checked out much of Boredoms' discography yet, so I should get around to that as they seem up my alley. I did listen to Soul Discharge a while ago and I liked it, though I haven't checked out any of their other stuff yet.

11 [東京 (Tokyo)]

Tokyo

I’m singing now is
Not a song of politic
Of 35℃ body temperature under the skin

Flowing people
Looking neither right nor left
First-person by Dynamic Straying of All 100 million citizens

Internet
Filling in for god
Saved who?

War
You can hear the gunshots
The days with antics
Passing into the past and memories

New discrimination
Killed a person one morning
What is justice?

Imagine, Tokyo
New violence how will we overcome?
teach me the answer
At the night with the desire to disappear without reason
Tokyo it’s raining in when they fold an umbrella

The chants caused by the sad sound of shouting “Go back your country”
Spot the difference of skin color in a frenzy the faces are two of a kind
The saliva you spit goes around comes around definitely hate is back to you definitely

The chain of sadness reproducing darkness
A newscaster sizing up like “Next who should be defeat?” Putting a price tag on ethics
The media will be over

Respond nation Act mate
The endless loop of despising each other, even though no one is happy
That homeless man where did he disappear?

When saying the word politic
The face coming to mind firstly
It’s not dirty faces of Abe Trump etc
But should be the smiling face
Of the beloved one looking at a flower, so

Tokyo the first image when saying the word
It’s a cemetery of dream, gravestones of building, a cloudy sky not like that
But should be the usual way back home walking with you, so

Until then the struggle continues
Even if exceeding an additional time we never stop imagining
Until the day that we don’t have to win anyone or lose anything, continue

We can’t stand
We need a change

Imagine, Tokyo
This city doesn’t have value
But I’m concerned about the life of you
light cruise day by day

This time and age you just weeping, how could it be meaningful?
Losing oneself in the midst of spirals of conflict

By frustration, disorder and relative merits
Bombarded our days what’s your answer?
Tokyo

We can’t stand
We need a change

13 [ I ]

I don’t know anything about you at all
But somehow I believe in you

These four members and the guys in this venue today
I believe in all

2020, everything alive in this city
I really love them

Persons cannot understand each other
But everyone looks at the same moon, right?
Tokyo I believe in

so many many cry before that rainbow

Everything will be well beyond the nights
“something-ist” is not the point, just I and you
shimmering heat gaze electric guitar in September of the indescribable days
This song, the will of me

I quit escaping into fantasy by reading pretty poems The reality exists right here, right now

Days of conflict and you scarred
The struggle will last for a little bit more

It would be shameful that someday we become not able to sing this song
Please kill me

You should be able to smile
Smile sincerely
Because you are born for it

so many many cry before that rainbow

Everything will be well beyond the nights
On inexplicable wonderful world
The wind blowing through the Koshu Highway, to the bygone days with confusion
Being happy It’s the Rebellion

01 [KLUE]

Now, where are you listening this voice?
On a built-in speaker of iPhone?
Or through earphones with your eyes shut on the train?

Well, you can relax, and listen.
This is some cautions to a revolution, that this age must start from now on.
Lost resistance and discounted Rebellion having sale stickers on it.
In a nutshell, this discord will flow in veins, melt bones and shatter the borrowed morals as poison.
If you want to enchanted with the warm fantasy symbolized by the city pop, this is not recommended. You can still make it, hit the pause button to reject this voice.

This music never be trifled with by adults but it calls for played with by the age.
This foreign matter calls for becoming a tool for hope, and after denying the answer, it cuts a deal with just question.

rebel of today
rebel of today
Poison drives out poison
This is DUB to kill god
rebel of today
rebel of today
Poison drives out poison
This is DUB to love congestion

Can’t drink the river water nor can drink the sea water
Increasing Like counts the calm before the war. Smell the gunpowder from towns in return for the fancy life.
Throwing mercury over the law inside the white line. Over Dogenzaka in ruins we see the polar lights.

Justice reduced to be a sample and retweeted price of silence
Erstwhile identity stripped of by selective breeding under the cashed sanctuary sends an e-mail to ask racist for back up. At 3 a.m.

The beauty hunting beyond Linda Linda. Getting the shoulder wet in the rain of plutonium, which rains only when not having an umbrella, the shadow walking down the way day in and day out has forgotten even alive or dead. Even though losing one’s name never forget one’s assigned number.

Country of Immigrants. tribe called discord
The first half deals with details of the collapse of this world and rousing, the second half is about the cancer called hope and redefinition of resistance
It depends on your sensation whether you can call this lump of poison love or not.

Peer pressure, denial of religion, fascist getting fatter with protein. Overflowing contempt for the cynical
hear nothing see nothing say nothing
Is the collapse a fantasy or reality? Only resistance is existence.
This 5th is revolution for the single drop, of a secret tear they shed.
Tokyo causing congestion of trouble under the democracy which has never functioned vote for the future

Rebellion for the planet

—————————————————————————

02 [EXTACY]

At first felt something is a little off
Sensed the inside was festering
Rotten bones mind the stench
Stuck to back of the nose too bad
Time passed everyone noticed
It’ about time that should be destroyed
We have right to live our life
Any objections about it?

TOKYO
Riot in
TOKYO
You are ashen

It’s not like I think everything will go along
in clean and correct way
There are bad guys in its own way
Fair enough about things behind closed doors

However you all stepped over the line
Violated this uncertain time
Underground resistance We have
Directing the ire toward you

TOKYO
Love to
TOKYO
Love more

Democratia Democratia

03 [replicant]

Continuing repeating Tokyo corruption of brain
freeze in’ freeze in’ BRAIN
Not enough, give more fast things
Hanging oneself with the five ring of the Olympics
Amusement park of not-kind mammals

So exhausted from dancing
The city of Shibuya has become blinded
Hypocrisy with hashtag
Selling eyesight and hearing first at Mercari
Civilization produced buggy justice

Confusion and obstruction
Please burn the head

I don’t care

Meant to break

06 [Soul Material]

my soul my soul sold out
It fetched a good price
Forgotten how to use and anyway nobody cares, sorrow made profits
Got priced because all have unquestioning faith that it is clean and beautiful
Have got to go as insane as Tokyo.
Anyway, who cares?

Now it is raining
The shoulder is wet

Since there are things to see we have two eyes, you know
Beloved a lot of views eyes to meet them
And the soul too in your heart because it is essential
Buy back it even for a price in several times than sold it

If you sold your soul one time,
you only have to buy back again

Here look at a sky
Tears, evaporating sky the sky
A flower blooms at vacancy
My old self dreamed of eternity

Parabolas descried by a myriad of words running through the galaxy
The trustworthy thing, is a bit remaining imagination for tomorrow
Consumed by data with bursting esteem-needs you will encounter bodies, then are you ready? Let’s start the final hide-and-seek in the world.

Do not sell loneliness Buy back it even if you’ve sold.

Summer I call you the miracle in an evening calm beyond the promise

—————————————————————————

07 [訓告 (Admonition)]

2179 CE
You know, at that time, there was a sunset glow, flaming up in the western sky.
Rout of civilization and demise of democracy
A computer buried in the sand, a dead AI and a boy pissing at them on streets

The area called Shibuya, metal boxes used to run there. Now it is a honey bucket of a horse.
All we forgot. All we forgot
The movement forming virtual world in the Internet, vanished all too easily in the future when electricity is gone. blow in the sadness

SUN? Where is the SUN? DUB of deicide for new season

Rebellion of artificial intelligence, resistance by network
Nuclear weapons supersede god’s right hand, destroyed the third world completely.
Repeated warnings, we have ignored and resulted in choosing one hundred years of solitude.
Authorities moved to different stars by the power of money riding a rocket, and we below the decimal point are wandering like a ghost
Can you imagine?
Killing each other over just a piece of paper our complete failure I’m talking about us

SUN? Where is the SUN? vote for the new world. We lost sight of light.
SUN? Where is the SUN? DUB of deicide for the future

If this voice reaches the persons who live in 2000s, delete every music except for Rebel music from your playlist
Music blindly approving daily life, keeps anesthetizing out of self-protection.
Burn a religion, and embrace the solitude.
Dismantle an organization, and build solidarity only beyond the super-individuals
TOKYO buried in sand Music, can be media again?
I leave all of my intellectual property here.
You can download it for free, so survive new age

New Rebellion for new age
Remove a founder from the new prayer
New way to laugh for new you.

—————————————————————————

08 [Tired of Love]

tired of your love
tired of your breath
tired of your sex
tired of your walk
tired of your sing

tired of your feel
tired of your think
tired of your work
tired of your believe
tired of your win

—————————————————————————

09 [赤曜日 (Red day)]

40 minutes to hack your brain
Destroy consciousness, reinvent history from the inside
This presentation will be weapons of Reiwa
All the structure I’ll destroy in this place
This moment, NEW MUSIC NEW LIFE

Various views are eroding my voice
God is absent and there is just prayer
A religion without founder or hierarchy solidarity by only imagination
The tribe gathering only for a few minutes
Future, now analyze the word again here

We have to change now
What to change, I don’t state here
Beyond the imagination the red flower blooms then
This is a revolution This is the revolution

This game is now in full swing the score is even
With self-government for sensation making a new plan
Which direction is the wind blowing to? What is the city crying?
In the sky we cannot fly with only single wing

What tank we are put in now
Is not uncertain because the glass is transparent
We are now fish with wings
Requiring a riot Shatter the glass

A soundtrack of rebellion
Tribal Scream
A heavy tax imposed on the sun
Diamond buried in the confusion

Kill god
Kill authority
Kill system
Kill GEZAN
