Kotani Kinya~!!!!!!

[furan]

because he deserves his own thread....

Wiki page

As the Page says, he's best known for his work on the Gravitation Soundtrack; however, through that soundtrack, he released a lot of other material that wasn't on the anime itself. also a lot of his stuff gets labelled as Gravi stuff, but isn't... which i didn't know and means I'm gonna now have to work out what is Gravi stuff and what isn't >.<
Well... i know everything off my CDs is at least :relife:

Anyway, I love his work. I believe he's produced by my hero Daisuke Asakara , and the music's done by him and Kenichi Ito in the MAD SOLDIERS.

If you like the Gravi soundtrack in general, or like Daiskue's other works, like:

MAD SOLDIERS,
ICEMAN
or like wise The Seeker (thread) or K.ITO + D.K then you will LOVE Kotani Kinya. He has a great, cheery voice, and his persona really fits the beat for Shuichi.

to get you started the album he released under the Gravitation soundtrack, and I swear... you'll never be emo again after listening to this XD

*ponders*
i must have scared people off by saying they'd never be emo :?

well... if anyone DOES what the album, the link will be dead by now, but can attempt to re up it if my internet alows it >.<

Kotani Kinya

squee!!! I like him, I first heard him on Gravitation - I thought he was T.M. Revolution at first, unfortunately I've never seen the guy. I'd like to hear more of his music but my online time is limited and I can never find downloads for him. So sad so sad.

 

[furan]

YAY!
i'm glad people are posting in here XDDD

i absolutely love the guy... you say you've seen live performances?
GOD i've never seen any... maybe i'll rummage around youtube to try and find some XDDD

i reeeeeeeeally love him though...
i've got a lot of his stuff... most of it is off verious Gravitation albums, but they were never actually ON the anime... and then a few others i randomly found...

Hey Kyous elric! no need to be sad.Actually his songs are easy to find if u know the name of the song and if its used for an anime and u know the name the better. i have only 4 or 5 songs of his but they are really cool. if u want music of his i coul send them to u to ur e-mail if u give it to me that's if u dont mind.
bye and bieng sad won't work!
