I didn't know this guy has such a history. I was always thinking he just randomly spawned like a mob whatever, thank you so much for making this gigantic historical video about me, it's mega fantastic. let me mention 2 things: - I will never stop. - and it's all thanks to you. love ❤️
16:33 I am utterly blown away by that number of sounds. For Camellia to win that, the song must've been one of the best songs I'll ever listen to, period! So Camellia if you see this comment please find a way to resurface this track so we may witness its glory with our own two ears
Hello. Thanks for watching! Mistakes you should be wary of: -Please note there's an extra O in Exit This Earth's AtOmosphere! -It was not Bassdrop Freaks that was a song from that contest, but "ませまてぃっく♥ま＋ま＝まじっく！". Got them mixed up -Used 2021 EXCEED GEAR Footage instead of EXH footage for Sayonara Heaven -Pronunciation errors (said prix, BlackY and BEMANI wrong, have mercy)
Even thought he's basically one of the most well known rhythm games composer, he's still so kind, chill and down to earth with interacting with his fans, and that's what I love about him the most
There's an alternate universe where that one guy didn't ask Camellia to make him a theme song and Camellia only becomes an extremely good remix/cover artist, we truly live in the good ending in regards to this.
I think making the choice to focus on Camellia‘a early years was a good one, his recent growth has been really crazy so more and more people don’t really know much about his earlier work. Great video!
Learning that Camillia specialized in Vocaloid at some poit made me very happy.. but... Can he try making a track with the vocaloid genre with his skill now? I want to see it shine! ^^;
This makes me wonder if theres a possibility for Camellia to collaborate with Project Sekai. And yes, I know he isn't doing that stuff anymore, but if Sega/Crypton could commission Hachi/Kenshi Yonezu to make Miku's 10th anniversary song, then I think they can get out with this haha
your channel will actually blow up dude. the amount of research and details shown here is remarkable. i have seen all of your "history of rhythm game artists" videos and the quality just gets better each video. :)
4:01 I've only once resonated with someone this much musically. When Camellia said this, I realized why I had been obsessed with his music for so long. While many other reasons may exist, the biggest reason is the unique, and rarely looping melodies found in his song. And when it does repeat, it only comes back stronger. I will never understand how a song repeating a melody or a line over and over again will be musically tasteful, but I digress. I enjoy minimal pieces like jazz or lofi however, but that's mainly for background noise. When i actually want to listen to something, loops are my biggest hatred.
oh hey, thats me over there at 0:03 :D casually chilling right next to camellia thanks for making this video btw it was really interesting seeing his progression in making music especially early in his career
Camellia happens to be one of my favorite artists in the rhythm game world, like this guy happens to be the best goats of music respectfully in my rankings, from redalice's alive to usao's miracle 5ympho x. This man made me welcome to hardcore tano*c in the first place in my teen to adult years! Like I call this guy "the goat of every music I ever listened to". Like if I can compare to every song or remix, idk im in heaven whenever I Camellia, especially that sayonara heaven remix.
Very interesting ride or more likely an amazing ride through his history Started getting requested a theme song on elementary Got interested in producing music Won prizes Got popular Now camellia is now done, who should we do next? Looking forward at REDALiCE or Laur
I clicked on this video out of curiosity, and I've got to say, a lot of questions have been answered and I've been given plenty to replace them with! I recognized the name from his Vocaloid days, since I've been delving deeper into weirder songs from the early days of the culture lately, and it's really hard to avoid SYSTEMATIC LOVE or Splatter Party popping up in those hunts. I actually came here with what seems to be the opposite of most folks' knowledge- I have no idea what's been going on recently (HE'S REALLY IN DELTARUNE???) but I fondly remember his superb Miku sounds. From looking around real quick, I know a handful of his instrumentals from stuff like Beat Saber, but I've never played any of those games outside of Vocaloid ones so I had no idea he was THAT well known! This video has definitely given me a lot of places to look for more good music :> Thank you for making it, and putting in the time to make it as informative as you did!
Camellia really sparked my taste in music. I listen to albums on my way home. He's also one of my entry points to Japanese music in general. I'm glad you showed his roots and its something fascinating to know about an artist. Btw, I hope you would also do history of music game producers outside Japan (M2U, ICE, Akira Complex etc)
I discovered this man like 2 years ago with Nuclear star from crystallized and damn I don't regret at all, he literally introduced me to music in general, not only EDM. Learning all what he did to become what he is now is wonderful
yayyy finally it’s here. the video about my favorite music composer! also nice video (3:58 also I guess what happens on stage doesn’t stay on stage hehe)
Recently I've been simping for Camellia so much (even though I adore his music since 2013), watching his streams, on Spotify he's my top#1 artist this year. You dropping video on him is a pleasant surprise. Great job
Your coverage over his early years was wonderful, even though I knew much about his vocoaloid years and after, your video is so intresting you had me watching until the end!
22:46 PENDUAL was from 2014 (predating the 2013 section you go into), but also I don't think Bassdrop Freaks was from a rhythm game competition -- IIDX doesn't usually do those. Timeline-wise I believe the song Camellia's referring to in the interview is ませまてぃっく♥ま＋ま＝まじっく！ for the SDVX II production confirmation competition, which ran from 2013-03-04 to 2013-03-25.
Awesome video! Camellia is one of my favorite artists, I love many of his songs, but if I had to pick a favorite, I'd probably go with Break the Silence.
Thank you so much for this commentary! Despite having actively listened to Camellia since 2015, even I didn't know a lot of the details you've brought up in this video.
Man, I only know from his works featuring Vocaloids (Systematic Love). Never knew that he's this popular! Edit: some of his fans doesn't know he used Vocaloid?????
about KAC... camellia actually HAS won a song contest! (he was one of 2 winners, the other being embryo by かぼちゃ) it's *feels seasickness...* and you can hear nanahira as the voice samples!!
I think I might be one of the few westerners to really discover Camellia during his vocaloids days lol. But the first song of his I heard was a Miku song called 'Meteor Shower' which features a lot of the synths you mentioned here at 17:00 . Been a fan ever since :D
This is a good history videos about the GOD of Genre Himself, Camellia/Cametek (idk what his name really is lol) but I have been a diehard fan of him since 2013 when i found him in nico nico douga and right now im still his Diehard fan who always waits for him to release a godly banger song. You also deserved my sub and hope to see every content about these history of the best rhythm game artists
Omg! It’s so cool to hear that camellia plays instruments and was in an online brass band! I am as well this year (in person brass band tho) so that’s cool! btw I play trumpet and also percussion But seriously, this dude camellia is a god and I thank him that he is here composing for our beloved rhythm games, thank you, camellia.💙
Great video! Earlier this summer I was watching the GDQ wacca showcase. I had never heard of the game, or camellia, or hardcore tano*c. My mind was fucking blown.. nb1rs! and the guys talked about the musicians with such love man.. It was moving AF..
I would kill to have Camellia’s early vocaloid albums on streaming services to get more people knowing about them. They are so good, I’ve spent a while tracking down full copies of them and they are incredible.
5:07 "I tried to sing" is not really a challenge, it's mostly just the niconico community's way of saying a cover. The tag for covers is literally "I tried to sing" (歌ってみた). 9:17 That title can be translated into something like "looked at a pussy and my dick's now big". Seriously. (This is why the "mystery of life" line is ironically emphasized, I think.) I knew he made Vocaloid songs, but I didn't know his first Vocaloid song is a meme song…
I watched a few of your videos and just realised that I had not subscribed to you yet. Rectifying this mistake now. Your production quality and research are great. Literally can't skip a second of your videos. I truly hope you get a larger viewership and your platform grows. As a rhythm game enthusiast, I love learning new things about the artists whose songs I play so much. Granted, I only play osu! and the taiko mode, but I still love learning about games I've never touched in my life. Thank you for all of the research and hard work you've put into your videos. Keep up the good work, mate. Much love. Sincerely, W. S.
RU-vid channel talking about one of my favourite rythm game music artists having a Spiral Knights avatar to send me straight back to 2014? Dude. That's a guaranteed insta-sub. Mad respect.
I find it amazing how long Camellia has been making music and how much he has improved in all these years. He is probably the only reason I developed my interest in listening to and making music and I am so grateful for that. Amazing video!
Your channel got recommended to me by algorithms. Bless the AI, you do some real good research on so many of my favorite rhythm game composers. Can I request a history on Silentroom? I don’t know if it will be a good video material since he seemed to have just abruptly showed up on BOF and instantly blew people away.
I hadn't even seen Tentaclar Aliens' Epic Extraterretterrestrial Jungle Dance Party... yet, and I thought Compute It With Some Devilish Alcoholic Steampunk Engines was long. Wow.
Cool video, a lot of storytelling keeps interesting in watching/listening, but i wanna mention that gameplay on 34:47 is mapset of 200 step remix of exit this earths athmosphere, not original one
Will you consider doing Feryquitous and An? I find those 2 to be quite mysterious, heck I dont even know if they are the same person or not. Anyways I think that would be a pretty great idea for a video.
Since this video dropped, Camelia has a new ddr boss song with challenge charts rated 19, the highest level any ddr chart has been rated and is shared by 8 other singles charts and 9 other doubles charts, with possession being the 9th doubles 19.
What an insane quality video. Keep up the good work. If you plan to continue this history of rhythm game artist series, good choices for further artist would probably be goreshit or Imperial Dead Circus Decadence.
