I'm alive! I advocated for the revival of this thread and then disappeared off the face of the planet, lol. Nice to see some more people!
Seeing the Miku Rewind+ news was a little disappointing. I was supposed to attend Miku Expo in 2020 but then the pandemic happened, and I've been sorely missing it ever since. Safety is safety though, I suppose. I wait for the day that the world is safe enough again to go out and see a Vocaloid concert again. I've been to the 2014 and 2018 ones.
Oh, and in speaking of concerts, Kafu recently performed duets with her voice provider, Kaf, at her recent concert at the Budoukan, Fukakai III. I'm personally really into Kaf so I had bought tickets to watch a livestream of the concert online and was pleasantly surprised by Kafu having her own introduction cinematic and then getting to perform two duets with Kaf, including one of my favorites, the duet version of Kafuka (yes, the pun name is intentional) by sasakure.uk. The two have performed duets before, but they really went over the top this time for the Budoukan. They had background dancers and everything, lol. Said performances aren't available to the public but if anyone was interested, I'm pretty sure it's still possible to buy tickets for watching the archive on ZanLive. Or, you know, an eventual Blu Ray release, because there's no way they aren't making one of Kaf performing at the freaking
Budoukan of all places. Super prestigious location. Kind of crazy. Kafu might be the first vocalsynth to perform there as a result? I'm not sure if any other vocalsynth has appeared there before.
I'll end this post with a producer recommendation. Steaka has been putting out some really good songs. Super underrated. Here's a Miku one:

I'm returning to the site after 8-9 years of not using it, please be patient with me!
I'm pretty talkative + my sleep schedule practically doesn't exist. I might respond to posts within minutes at some hours and then disappear off the face of the planet to sleep at random intervals.
