Yesterday at the café, I talked about my favorite doujin music albums. I know many people didn't watch yesterday's live stream, and the video wasn't recorded, so someone asked me to organize the website from yesterday and post it. I was too lazy to record a video, so I'll just briefly talk about it in this column. If you find it troublesome, you can directly check the website:

I organized the album and listening links, but I won't include them in the article. If you want to hear me ramble a bit, you can continue reading.
- C-Show House Collection Vol. 1
C-House, you've heard of it, you know it. I think this is much better than the holic he wrote.
2. CORDELIA
This year, I will choose many vocal albums. Pay attention, Satella has started adding some jazz elements in the "albums," which is nice.
Why the quotes? Because we shouldn't call a CD with three songs an album.
3. CYBERNETiX Vol.1
Our little mameyudoufu released a Bass music album with his friends. This album is good enough to listen to for the foreigners.
As for the Japanese, I wish them good luck.
4. DidItYesterday
ANI-TEK STILL ALIVEEEEE
This kind of album has some other things, anyway, it's the kind of internet stuff that DENPA-SAMPLER would write.
5. Drawing
Ayahi Miyamoto's tenth single, two refreshing and bright POP songs.
6. encore -EMOTIONAL VOCAL POP 04-
As the title suggests.
7. Follow out Y
SHE IS BACK
yuiko returns to doujin activities after who knows how many years, and the first song is Next Recovery. Sigh!
8. Irrelevance
G
9. It's a Message for you
I listened to it for a while on the black cat bus. As a Seven Flat fan, I think Seven Flat finally released a nice album with a cover that isn't loli.
10. MY NUTRIENTS
The woman is beautiful, and the song is nice.
11. Neko Hacker Ⅲ: あたらしい
I'm a bit aesthetically fatigued. I used to like Neko Hacker for a while.
In short, those two things of his haven't changed much after becoming commercial.
12. season1
Losstime Life's Best Album. Sometimes I see their songs on YouTube, and they're pretty good.
But it does have a contemporary feel that generally comes through J-pop.
13. STYLEY NiGHT iii
Cool EMO woman singing, I really like the design.
14. SUSHI VARIATION
This is an album I really like, probably my top choice from last year's spring M3.
As the title suggests, it's a diverse virtual sushi experience, worth a listen.
15. THE 20 YEARS DYNASTY
Shim 村's 20 years, with many classic songs from the dynasty remade, a must-listen for Shim 村 fans.
16. The Virtual Pulse
This kind of album seems to have sparked a small trend in understanding Hi-tech Psytrance in the country. The album is somewhat between Western and Japanese Hitech Psy, serving as a stepping stone to understand this style.
17. へるぷ！/ Conversation Logic
Kijibato finally made some electric wave music that I can accept.
18. ほしかけスケッチブック vol.1
Ahhhh, this is a collection of unreleased songs from the past two years, I really like it.
19. みそれこ！！
I think doujin album covers should be like this, very refreshing Break music... Can I say that?
20. フェティッシュバニーガール
A cute Shibuya-style pop album that I love every song from, also highly recommended for the spring M3 album.
21. ヴィオレッタと魔法仕掛けの小箱
Recommended for someone who likes Yuzuki Yura.
That's right, it's ( ).
22. 世界の秘密を教えて
My favorite cover girl of 2023, a cute pop music album that I also really like.
23. 勿忘
Tokiwa's ambient music album, especially love the title track, very cool.
24. 心予報、色めく空
Teacher Sena's first CD, the quality is pretty good but the popularity is particularly low, so I’ll recommend it at the end of this compilation.
25. #palettemuse
A collaboration album between Loquartz and On Prism Records, combining cute and cool elements into 9 tracks, it can be considered the best vocaloid collection of the year.
26. Bitter Sweet EP
An album that gets better the more you listen to it. Even so, many tracks leave a deep impression on the first listen.
- Hilton
ESPITZ&Sobrem&NeLiME, those who understand will understand.
28. nick shock
The production is average, but it's a vocaloid album that I personally quite like. Recently, I've listened to many low-popularity artists, those with only a few hundred fans, and many of their tracks are really good. I want to recommend them in the future.
29. 青空ポッピンサマー
Hmm, choko.
30. Angel Gelato
Dolphin P's huge fan has arrived. jpg
Irucaice, this producer, is really improving rapidly every year. I love it!
31. Audiometry
【Credits】All: Shinme Toru
If you often follow Japanese music creators on Twitter, you must have seen this versatile creator who can draw, animate, and write songs. The entire album is very rich in high-resolution music, worth a listen.
32. CLIMAX
A UK Hardcore enthusiast told me this is his ideal J-UK Hardcore.
My personal favorite is definitely the one with DJ Gen, but Shim 村，your tracks are really getting blurrier.
33. GIDDY STRIKERZ
LOLISTYLE GABBERS
Hmm.
34. KeyFragmentsⅡ
Listen to muyu's track, it's amazing.
35. NTSC-Jaycore
Sorry, I'm a Jaycore enthusiast.
It feels like 10s J-core is being interpreted in 2023, very nice.
36. Percolation
Polysha is a doujin creator I really admire. The transformation of the tracks is significant, and they dare to say many things that Japanese people don't dare to mention, such as ghost production in rhythm games and copyright issues.
This album has several tracks that are clearly influenced by many J-Funk bands. I can talk about it later if you're interested.
37. Prima Littera
A very feeling new singer, the album features composers I really like, such as Kise Non.
38. Regulus and Mira: The Great Adventure
Rigël Theatre's tenth-anniversary album. If you like it, you like it. If you don't like it, you don't like it.
I like it.
39. SMOOZ GARAGE 02
The second wave of UKG craze among Japanese people is underway, a pretty good album.
40. Sorama
YUKIYANAGI's first album. Yukiyanagi is one of the J-core producers with a distinct style and high quality in recent years.
However, this album still feels a bit watered down.
41. Stream Friendly 02
I think it's not Stream Friendly at all. I used it in a previous video, and it's a bit too intense. I think Stream music should be simpler.
Of course, it's still nice to listen to on its own.
42. ほしかけスケッチブック vol.2
I talked about 1 already.
43. プラスチック・トニック
Looking at the name and cover, those who understand will understand.
44. 中华幻想 两
A topic piece!
You can skip all the albums above, but you must watch the promotional video for this album.
NenotaNi is truly a marketing genius.
45. 名前をつけるなら
Not bad, also a low-popularity Vsinger, worth keeping an eye on.
- 渡空の結び目
I talked about 心予報、色めく空，so I won't say much more.
47. HYPERNIGHT VOL. 4
This time I only like the first half, hmm.
48. INSTALL
A new cute electronic music producer, quite nice.
49. YATSUZAKI HARDCORE COLLECTION 2023
Listen to SaltyFreaks, please.
50. パラフォビア
It's quite amazing, but I have indeed listened to many tracks from this album this year.
Although it's still too noisy, I can tell that Lapix has done some research on writing Vocal tracks, after all, they've been doing this for years.
That's it. I don't know if this format will be too cold.
Anyway, I'm not tired.
