NittPicc Reacts

tuki. - HYURURIRAPAPPA

I used to play Dance Dance Revolution. If you haven't heard of it, it's a video game where you dance to cool music that was exciting and fun.

This is what this song reminds me of! I had almost too much of a good time listening to this one that it took me a second to think about musical thin...

BAND-MAID - Sayonakidori (REVISTED, Tokyo Garden Theater 2023 + Instrumental)

I am a completionist. I must finish what I started and I just realized that Sayonakidori was on the Unseen World instrumental CD. That means I have the score as well which means I can really dive into the msuical genius that is BAND-MAID.

I promise once I am done with this disc, we will mov...

Jethro Tull - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

I couldn't resist. I saw the name. I saw the holiday album. I had to react.

I had no idea that Jethro Tull had a Christmas album before today and man oh man, was I excited to check this out!

Needless to say, I was not disappointed with the performance. I just think it's funny that my ...

Happy holidays!

Ayreon - The Day That The World Breaks Down

I wasn't sure what was going to go down when I chose this reaction, but man it was so worth it!

This is what I would consider a progressive rock opera. The most interesting thing about this reaction was the music was solely composed and mostly (but not all) performed by the creator. I was s...

Maximum The Hormone (II) - Let's talk about the future of katakotori noodles

Gout happens when uric acid builds up in your system. Usually it can mess with your toes or something? Anyway...

This song was written what seems like a response to some flack given to Maximum the Ryokun for taking his declining health into his own hands and making some healthy changes in h...

BAND MAID - After Life (REVISTED, 2024 Day of Maid + Instrumental)

I know...I did "After Life" a long time ago, but I didn't have the instrumental album yet in my posession to experience the music at it's fullest potential.

Also, the new "Epic Narratives, Day of Maid 2024" concert has a live performance that I haven't had a chance to check out and this was...

Sabaton - Christmas Truce

I remember learning about this in school at some point and I thought it was one of the most beautiful yet sad moments in history. I may not be a history buff, but there are moments that really bury themselves in your memory and you can't forget it.

Anyway, I really enjoyed the music produc...

BAND MAID - I still seek revenge (3 way reaction)

This is revenge.

Not only revenge for the heart, but revenge for the musician. The maids killed it in this song! Especially our bass queen MISA!

I was taken by the unison guitar lines and unique use of rhythm. I guess the speed was so fast that I wasn't able to catch the real rhythm....

Al.Hy - Vener me chercher

I love the French. I love the language, their lifestyle and the food.

I haven't dove deep into French music, so here we go!

Thanks to Spadeas on discord, I had the pleasure of checking out this singer's beautiful voice. I listened to her live acoustic version of the ...

This isn't being posted THE DAY OF my videos being posted. I don't know what you're talking about!

BAND MAID SUNDAY - Unfair Game reaction

Patreon Extras (check photo!)

Mizuni Ukikusa - シンデレラ(Cinderella)

This one wrapped up my reactions this weekend with a nice bow.

The sound that this band has really makes me feel like I'm entering a renaissance era of my music tastes. It sounds silly since my musical palate is pretty diverse, but this one makes me feel like I moved on from cheap beer to ...

BAND-MAID - Warning (instrumental)

I know...

I KNOW!

...but I had to revisit this one because I didn't have the instrumental album back when I did the reaction and now I had to come back and hear what was lying underneath Saiki's golden pipes, okay?

The fun part is I found some sounds in here that I didn't hear ...

Hatchie - Quicksand

I may have danced through this whole song here. I eventually did talk about the music, but I was having too much fun with my imaginary club dance party that had 80's or 90's television filters on it with my pretend big hair and cute outfit...

...ANYWAY! This is such a cool throwback into th...

Happy turkey day! I am just going to keep this short because we should all be spending time with family and friends!

Here's the line-up!

BAND-MAID Sunday:

• YOLO

  • I had to go back in time to dive into the older repertoire of the maids, so the journey continu...

Faulieu - Yamaigoto (ヨマイゴト)

Okay...

Look...

Listen...

Look and listen...

This band is FIRE! Faulieu was not on my bingo card for bands that I think I could really get into but there is something about their sound and their groove that really bring me to a nice warm fuzzy place in my soul. I really wa...

BAND-MAID - Forbidden Tale, behind the scenes!

When I got the notification that BAND-MAID had released a behind the scenes of "Forbidden Tale," I knew I had to check it out! It took me a little bit to get to it, but it's never too late!

I really enjoyed seeing the maids play a game of "guess this riff/song." It's funny to watch their re...

Yvette Young - parachute (acoustic with Covet version!)

I didn't think I was going to have "feelings" when I started listening to this song, but the tone of the guitar and the sound of her voice and then the introduction of the violin sent me over the edge.

Honestly, there is something so simple and pure about this song that really tugs at my he...

Hola familia!

I swore I would get better at being more prompt with my Patreon and BAND-MAID Sunday posts, but this is still coming later than I would like. We just started our school break for Thanksgiving and I will be traveling, so I will try my best to be present!

Here's the line u...

ADO ft. Hatsune Miku, Sakura Biyori and Time Machine (桜日和とタイムマシン with 初音ミク)

This one got blocked globally and I had to lower the opacity on the YouTube version, so...here's the non-globally blocked one!

Pedialyte & Gatorade are my besties now...

I am typing this as I lay in bed...

I'm sorry, mi familia. This weekend's videos aren't going to happen. My body is saying "no." I'm trying to hydrate and get some fluids back in.

I have to be better by the time tomorrow rolls around since I have to teach. I don't get any days off as...

NittPicc esta enferma!

Translation: "NittPicc is sick"

Hey guys...

This is embarrassing for me, but I have permanently moved into my restroom for the rest of the day. I can't seem to keep anything down.

I know I haven't been feeling great this week. I chalk that up to the traveling with the band, but ...

Hitsujibungaku - more than words

I'm going to keep this short because I have to be up in 2 hours to be on a bus to San Antonio.

This song is making me really curious about what Jujutsu Kaisen is about because of how lovely this song is. The tuning is just absolutely pure.

Kiyoshi - Hi-Ho

I am going to keep this short because I need to be awake and on a bus to San Antonio in 2 hours...

I need to practice bass more. Also, this is proof that I can do most of the work on my own!

BAND-MAID - Why Why Why

I have to keep this short because now...I only have 1 hour before I have to be up to leave to San Antonio.

When I saw the suggestion for track 8 by Glenner7, I couldn't resist. I haven't heard "Why Why Why" yet and the instrumental was screaming my name! Of course I had to listen to a versi...

Patreon Extras 11/10/24

Hola familia!

If you are reading this, I am on a bus to San Antonio for the Bands of America marching contest with the high school band I work with. There will be content created from this if you are at all interested in my teacher life! Again this post comes later than I wish, but soon I w...

Van Halen - Top Jimmy (aka: the song that broke me)

Damn you Van Halen.

This song completely broke my brain.

• How can one play in D7 tuning on a guitar and it sound okay within the standard tuning of the other guitar?

• How come he chose D7 tuning? Doesn't he know that it feels unresolved the whole time?

BAND-MAID - without holding back (instrumental)

It's nice to revisit the the white room instrumentals!

I have heard the opening before in one of Ohrenje's documentaries, which may have been the Kanami one in particular.

Now, after looking through the score and seeing the words...I am so curious what the song with that section soun...

Exploring Birdsong - Turntail

This song has such a beautiful sound to it.

The fact that there was NO GUITAR in it whatsoever did blow my mind though. I didn't realize it was gone until after the song was over. The keys/synth do so much that you don't miss the sound of a guitar.

The vocalist could sing me into a ...
