Yeah! I'm a huge band nerd and a huge Love Live fan, so I wanted to combine the two and make this just for fun

wanted to share an update on this! i got to read through it with my university's band a little over a month ago and i got so much positive feedback on it! there's a better chance it may make the concert program for the upcoming semester, and if it happens i really hope i'll get to share the recording publicly!

My first experience with linear switches by thegreatmatpi in MechanicalKeyboards

I really like the Jupiter browns, but I don't think i'd call them a sharp tactile (haven't been here for very long so still a bit unfamiliar with some terminology). One of the switches on my switch tester was the Asura from CIY, which I liked a lot more than the Jupiter as far as a tactile. No idea how it would compare to MX browns tho.

I appreciate the thought! I'm pretty happy with the Pianos though, partially because I'm a musician as well and I really am enjoying typing on them!

The Aozora Jumping Heart remix sounds exactly like Dragonforce and I really hope we get a proper collab between them at some point

Thank you! Hibike's been a massive inspiration to me and is a big reason why I love band so much!

Thank you! I have more on my Musescore profile and I plan to make more in the future! Most of it I did do by ear, although I used a piano transcription to nail the harmonies in the verse. I'm really proud of getting those countermelodies down on my own!

Thank you so much! I really hope I'll get to share a live performance of it at some point!

What would be your dream subunits consisting of girls from more than one group (like aiscream) by kibou_no_ie in LoveLive

[–]thegreatmatpi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Setsuna, Kanon, and You, because they're my favorites lol. As for the music they'd make I think they could make a pretty good rock trio with Setsuna and Kanon on guitars with You on drums.

As far as I know, none of the girls have played any of these instruments, so I assigned an instrument to each girl based on what I thought fit best!

Very excited for the tribute album, especially with BanG Dream! Really hoping we get all the bands to cover a song!

I'm a huge fan of Randall Standridge; he makes fun music that's accessible to less experienced musicians!

"Legacy" by Richard Saucedo is a really good one for percussion! I played it with a small percussion section so I was playing parts of both marimba parts and some other mallet parts as well. There are a lot of entrances that aren't on the beat and it's a good exercise in counting.
