Constructive criticism

Take it in stride, folks. It's not meant to be insulting. It's meant to be a platform for improvement. Read it over and decide what you like and don't like - of course you shouldn't just be a pushover and make every change someone suggests, but a lot of times, they might be offering valuable input.

Wow, talk about coincidence

This guy Motoi I've been talking to as of late (found him on the WKP when he needed help with making a KiSS set...tried to give him a hand with the issue but my Japanese isn't good enough...somehow we got on the subject of electronic music and that's what we mostly talk about now) just sent me a song, "Forbidden Colors" by Ryuichi Sakamoto and David Sylvian...beautiful song by the way...but I instantly recognized the tune all too well. Turns out it was used in both Shenmue on Dreamcast (which I was /just/ playing before I listened to it!) and as a sample in Ai's "Senjou no Merry Christmas" (which, it turns out, is also the name of the instrumental version of the original song and the movie it was from) - I knew it from both (though I hadn't previously connected the Ai song with the tune from the game).
