^omg I find Not yet so boring and dull. It seriously annoys me. That’s the opening track I never really understood the hype around.

She looks more like Bianca. I guess she just likes Ayu and the name but Ayu doesn't do much for her drag. Even though Ayu is perfect for some queens.

Bridge to the sky just came up on my playlist and I wish she did a whole album like this.

Yes, yes, and yes. Bridge to the sky is the best interlude/introduction, so much better than Not yet (never understood the hype), Bridge to the sky -> NEXT LEVEL is the best transition.

NEXT LEVEL has the best interludes in general. Pieces of SEVEN is amazing, and Disco-munication is so much fun. Load of the SHUGYO is my least favourite though, I can't even remember how it sounds.

And speaking of underdog interludes, I think the ones on (m)u deserve much more love.

Bridge to the sky / rollin' -type stuff, please at least for another album. On that note, how did Yuta make songs like this and then never again?

It is to me just... another interlude, introduction. I prefer Not Yet.

One of the underdog interludes I really love is taskinlude from I am...
I don't know what it is. I enjoy all task-intermezzos, but that one is grabbing my attention a lot lately. Anyone with me? What's your favorite task-song?

All of the tasks are just... wow.

taskinst is up there too despite the allegations against it, haha.

While starting over is nice, I think that her intros from MY STORY onward had way more punch to them. Catcher in the Light, Not yet, Mirror, Bridge to the sky... legendaries.

As a whole, NEXT LEVEL is such an awesome album. Someone please remind me why people absolutely hated this in 2009 until like 2012?

I love all the tasks but taskebab (that name!!! and the daft punk sample is not very good)!! "taskinillusion" and "tasking" are my favorites.

tasking and Are You Wake Up? are perfection as well.

taskebab I think just used the same sample bank that Daft Punk used. It's far too strange to think that tasuku copied them AND also copied Granado Espada for tasking AND copied Hoobastank's Don't Tell Me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJoF6JPNnSY

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFuHZVj136M

Kinda feel for him but it's really uncommon for people to use the same samples. He does amazing work regardless.

Wow!! I didn't knew that! I really think he just sampled these songs instead of copying it. He took some arrangements and added his own elements to it. The bordeline of sampling and copying is very thin haha
