LOVEBITES Photos

I didn't take many and I was at a height disadvantage, but I tried! Enjoy! 🐺

Nightwish - Scaretale

The fact that this song came from a movie that Nightwish made themselves is truly something behold.

I see that the movie has been posted in the discord already so I might have to watch it sometime soon!

This piece is a wonderful mixture of symphonic sounds with metal, thus making the...

BAND-MAID - NO GOD (4 way comparison w/YT)

It was different.

Every.

Single.

Time.

I heard something new each time. I know that both the live performances along with the white room instrumental are all compositionally the same, but DEAR GOD the difference in how their instruments were mic'd up or recorded makes a hu...

The Warning - Narcisista

This was a cool experience to see Pau sing and play at the same time. I was super excited to hear them sing in Spanish as well. The context of the song is not a happy one though. They are talking about something they have experienced before and I've been there too.

If you want to learn mor...

Hola amigos!

I have dropped the ball this week. I guess I can say I am getting old. Seeing Lovebites on a Sunday and then going to work on Monday took a lot out of me. I have been tired all week and tried so hard to get some rest, but with marching seaon, football season, homecoming (in Tex...

Brats - Kimarigoto

Happy Birthday Charles!

You were the comment I read on the video when I looked it up for this reaction! What are the odds?!?

Anyway, I am bummed to hear that Brats is permanantly disbanded. They seemed to have so much potential. Their sound is great and their singer has a punky style ...

BAND-MAID - Sense (3-way reaction)

I apologize for this one being so long!

Every. Version. Sounds. DIFFERENT!

The studio version was great as is, but the live version was completely amped up. Live Maid = BEST MAID.

...but yo. That white room. OMG. The clarity of sound and being able to see what the Maids are doi...

Lawrence - The Heartburn Song

This was a treat! I didn't expect both singers to have such soulful voices as well as hearing funky fresh sampling at the beginning. Also the video was enjoyable watching everyone suffer from the heat of the hot sauces.

The food choices were questionable though. Lol

Maybe someday I'll...

Hola amigos!

It's been a interesting week and it's just going to get even more exciting! I am slowly wanting to go down a Beatles rabbit hole, I am going to see LOVEBITES this weekend! It will be my first Japanese band I will see live! I cannot express how EXCITED I am to see them! I am goi...

The Jazz Avengers - Maybe I Know (RE-UPLOAD)

Sorry for the mistake the first time! Here we go again. I hope you enjoy it!

I didn't know before, but after this video...maybe I know!

This group played this chart and KILLED it. The level of muscianship on the stage was electrifying to watch and listen to. I plan on showing this vid...

Unleash The Archers - Awakening

The purity of technique in every single musician in this video is a sight to be seen.

The fingers grazing across the fretboards with ease and relaxed grip. They all make it seem like playing guitar and bass is no big deal. Like any "Joe Shmoe" of the street could waltz right in and do what ...

Banshimoku - Spanky Alien

I wasn't sure about this one when I saw the title of the song, but I am always up for a surprise or challenge.

I was pleasantly surprised by this group.

A wild bassist who hands out a sick bass line. A drummer who is giving a groove that you can sing for hours. A singer who sings in...

BAND-MAID - DOMINATION (White Room Instrumental)

WARNING: I cuss a little much in this video. I got too excited.

I am not a skeptical person usually, but when someone tells me that I should listen to only the instrumentals of a band, I just think...okay, so listen to just the accompaniment? Yeah right...

This is not the case here. ...

The Fix - Rush (더 픽스)

I am starting to really enjoy K-Rock. There is something about it that makes for such a good fun listen, but just cutesy enough to dip a friend's toe into different languages and styles.

I hihly reccoment this one. It was a fun listen and I cannot wait for more!

White Room Series: BAND-MAID, Unleash!!!

It was so odd hearing the lyrics in my head for just a moment when I started watching this instrumental.

...you guys were so right. You can hear so much more! The musical effects that Kanami made! Especially the use of Saiki's voice placed within the song. She's always there!

I had a ...

Hola famila!

This is going to be a good weekend guys. So many special reactions to come!

Here's the line up!

• BAND-MAID Sunday:

  • "Start Over"

    • I am not going to lie, I chose this one solely on the thumbnail. Something is calling to me and I reall...

Wagakki Band - Queen of the Night

I learned that a "Queen of the Night" is a flower that nocturnally blooms and wilts before sunrise. How can such a pretty flower have such a sad existence? I guess now's not the time to existential...!

This one is pure beauty. As usual the misxture of traditional and modern instruments make...

Coheed and Cambria - Key Entity Extraction I: Domino the Destitute

Like I've said before, I have heard of this band before, but I never looked into them much. The reason for that is unknown to me. It could be that I was chest deep into college that I didn't have much time for anything other than my studies and classical musical literature.

...needless to s...

BAND-MAID, Prime - The Making of Influencer

98.6 degrees when shooting a music video in a maid costume that is mostly black with a few pieces that are white? Imagine how much heat those costumes held onto. I can only imagine how hot Misa and Saiki felt since they typically wear all black.

It's nice to see behind the scenes. I love wa...

Hola Intervals!

The first week back to teaching has been pretty nice so far! I am surprised I am not mentally exhausted yet. Hopefully this continues through the rest of the 2024-2025 school year.

Anyways, you know what time it is!

Day in the Life of NittPicc: Bad lighting, Practice Sessions, and teaching!

Just wanted to share something different since I don’t tend to record or play very much in my videos. It’s hard to find time to record and such when I teach and record/edit. Hopefully there will be more time eventually!

Floor Jansen - Shallow (from "A Star is Born")

Look...

You need to check this one out for yourself.

There aren't words to describe how this performance/song will make you feel.

Do yourself a favor and grab a box of tissues and listen.

BAND-MAID - Different

This one made my brain go burrrrrr...!

I tried so hard to cover as much as I possibly could, but I feel like I still missed so much. Honestly this song needs to be broken down by layers. I need everything in layers like a cake. Lol.

Anyway, I tried my best. I feel like I may have to c...

Nemophila - Now I Here

The Patreon suggestions are moving performances this week.

I was told that this was going to show the "softer" side of Nemophila, and I was not disappointed. This was a beautiful experience and the instrumentation was so well performed. The singing...that sent me over the edge.

This s...

Hola mis amigos!

I'm not going to type too much here because I am currently in the process of recording these videos. but I will say...

This is a fun weekend of music.

Phantom Siita - Just Wanna xxxx With You

This got blocked on YouTube in 2 regions so I just wanted to make sure everyone had access to it if you were interested!

Have fun!

Are Squared - BANG!

The bass at the beginning of this one just rips into your eardrums into your soul and hopefully keeps reverberating throughout your body during the whole song.

There is so many cool things going on during this. Guitar interjections with bass and guitar unisons and calculated silence.

BAND-MAID PRIME - "Bestie" behind the scenes!

I figured it was time to dig into the BAND-MAID Prime account.

I was excited to dig through the archives and I know at some point I will be digging into those single shot cams to see what the maids can really do, but before I do that...

...we are going to check out some of the music v...

Apocalyptica - Seek and Destroy, Live Hellfest 2017

Look...not many people make classical instruments look cool.

Apocalyptica does the opposite. I remember when I started playing violin, I toyed with the idea of playing cello, but I didn't want to have to carry a large instrument around with me to performances. Also, violing and flute just m...

Hola amigos!

It's been a HOT here in the DFW area. Marching band has given me a sick tan. Ha!

If you missed me on YouTube, those videos will resume this next week! YAY!

Finding the time to record during summer band when we rehearse everyday except Sunday was a challenge!
