Back to regular programming lol. (still, you can try québécois music, you know :) )

This month, I'm focussing on my favourite countertenor, madame ~Selia~ ♥

As usual : Song titles link to individual mp3 file download

All 6 songs can also be downloaded together in a zip file from the link at the bottom

Ok, here we go~

BUCK-TICK - REVOLVER

I had originally chosen Mr Darkness & Mrs Moonlight to go on here, but I think Revolver does Selia more justice.

Revolver is the closing track of 天使のリボルバー(tenshi no REVOLVER), released in 2007

GPKISM - Angelus feat. Selia

While Ken doesn't sound as confortable in japanese as he is in english, I think the layering of his voice with Selia's is absolutely gorgeous T^T ♥

Angelus is on the Iudicium maxi-single released in 2009

Kaya - Curse of Rose

The culmination of this song gives. me. CHILLS. Looks it's Hizaki composing for Kaya with chorus from Selia, and it's *muah* chef's kiss !!!

Curse of Rose was the B-side of Vampire Requiem (also with that same line-up ♥), released in 2012.

Seileen - 禁じられた遊び (kinjirareta asobi) (that's most likely my rip)

It's a shame that Seileen doesn't record often, but I guess it's expensive to comission a nearly whole album from Kalm every time 🤔 (im kinda joking but like its funny to me that i cant seem to easily find proofs of this online cause litteraly it's written in the cd case lol)

Kinjirareta asobi is the title track of the album, released in 2009.

Selia - ART OF SIN (feat. DJ HOOLIGAN)

Aaaaay look a spare mp3 that i have a hard time finding a source for :D (actually, im shocked this hasn't happened before) I'm pretty sure the DJ Hooligan that shows up in the search is not the one featured on this (for one i'm also pretty sure he's japanese lol, but my memory fails)

I don't know where this song comes from, probably from a compilation, sometime in the 00's lol.

And i'm gonna go with a bonus :

AUTO-MOD - Miss You

It's funny cause i had been listening to some auto-mod, lately, but I guess they were mostly older releases, cause I had no idea Selia was now part of the band until i saw her band history on vk.gy earlier today lol.

Miss you comes from the Celebration album, released in 2010

Visit Original Link

youtube was giving me shit, for a change...

Anyway, yeah, if you ever end up goth night clubbing in Tokyo, chances are you're gonna come accross Selia and a lot of friends featured here, actually :3

Get all this zipped up

tbh having ryonai bring blam honey back with kiwamu's help in the early 2010's was unexepected but its one of the only reason we got hd version of some songs.

or some songs at all... do you know how difficult it was to find ANY blam honey in the early 2000 ? i had scoured the internet and all i could find was like 3 songs.

Thing is if you had a bit of money, the albums/singles/tapes were regularly-ish available on japanese auction sites, but i didnt have money and, idk about now but, japanese fans were not prone to share mp3s, at the time. so you had to cross your fingers that either someone french or argentinian had uploaded it. (or actually you had to ask the frenchs cause they were dicks about how "hard this was to find and whats in it for me" and the argentinians probably had a blog and was happy to share everything as long as you gave them credit)

im glad that blam honey songs are easier to find, now. thats true for many other bands too. there was a thrill to find rare stuff at the time, sure. but its a better thing that its all more accessible, now, i think. are there still people hogging access to some old demo tapes cause they "had to work for it" ? Sure. but i find they are far less common than 12-15 years ago.

there is no point in hoarding weird japanese music from the 90's without sharing it anymore. i glad people seemed to finally understand that theres no point in being the only person listening to a song. songs are meant to be shared !
