Keiko's solo debut (after 2020)

The moment I listened to 始まりは for the first time, "I've heard it somewhere!" thought crossed my mind. My guess on the inspiration is:
Pitched down version of "Virtual Insanity" by Jamiroquai.

Figured out the online concert event page URL two days ago:

https://stagecrowd.live/s/live032/
This archive is available for one week.

Stagecrowd is a fairly new online concert platform from Sony utilizing the Brightcove video player. Tech support is officially limited to within Japan (per the site’s FAQ), but you do not need a VPN to access the stream.

Your Stagecrowd login is specific to that event page. To sign up for another event hosted on Stagecrowd, you have to create another login. Dumb, I know.

Foreign credit cards (should) work. Just not debit.

I’ve heard from other people Stagecrowd will prompt you to enter a Japanese address, in which case you need Tenso or another forwarding service, but I only recall having to select a prefecture during registration.

Stagecrowd has the feature to allow the performer sell concert merch directly on the platform, if they choose to do so—no overseas delivery, though.
 
Kajiura wrote a song for Keiko and it will be unveiled/premiered on Keiko's solo live! It's composed and arranged by Kajiura with Lyrics by Keiko hmmm interesting

Okay now I am excited. Will try to buy the stream pass (I've searched for information and according to puts it's available for global audiences even though the site asks for jp address? Hopefully it's true lol)

Best girl deserves best treatment from Kajiura :touched: Her loyalty to Kajiura pays off I hope Kajiura can provide her songs at least 1 per album.

Tho it's kinda funny the article from avex was like:
>Please listen to new KEIKO different from Kalafina/Fictionjunction style
>Proceeds to mention Kalafina 3 more times in the article
lol

Anyway @george1234 can we hab this one new song from Keiko in Kajiura thread? Much better if pinned cause we know in forum we all Keiko stan anyway :ohoho::ohoho::ohoho::ohoho::ohoho:
 
Okay okay I just saw the arranger Nobuyuki Shimizu (@ddsstudio) / Twitter of the song (Thought it would be Kajiura handling both Composition and Arrangement) and I was disappointed a little...But while I was browsing his arrangements THANK GOD he's not like those Sony trashes music producers lol. And he's pretty good!!!

PLEASE BE CITY POP OMFG :omg::omg::omg::omg:
 
I wonder if she is gonna use the new high pitch voice or the good old deep voice 🤔 my bet is that its gonna be a ballad.
 
She sang kaze no machi he with so much more vigor in vol.9... This, on the other hand, is zzzzzzzzzz

And people here complained hard about her performance lmaoo i remember one person saying that Keiko was too loud and she didn't feel like she was being sung by an older sister like what she felt from the og version. That comment was so stupid it's ingrained in my brain and i blocked her immediately lmao. If she also complained hard about this...

Btw i forgot to stream the live because i was too busy working on company profile for the company I'm working for but one person said that it'll be archived until Sept 13th. Hopefully that's true.

Based on the 2 songs grunty linked I'm gonna say that Keiko's band sux and despite me not liking her delivery in kaze no machi e Keiko is still the most listenable live performer between all 3 Kalafina girls. Idk if it's just me being extra sleepy but houseki is amazing imho
