But yeah, I do hope that more people come to realize just why TAM is so awful. Also agreed that this stuff should not stick around one’s music library unless they just want the novelty of it. Beyond that, there’s no great listening value lost if you shut TAM out from your music listening repertoire.

He did play well, I’d admit that but all he was doing was just playing the transcription. I can do that on guitar and I am 100% sure that I won’t be praised the way he – playing a violin – would get praised. He moved a lot and all and I don’t know about ’soul’ in playing the violin but admittedly I was never really wowed.

In pale comparison to that, a cover of the same piece by a doujin group with violins and piano impressed me by quite a lot and instead of playing the exact same melodies (guess what) they played differently to accompany the soft and touching tune of Nagisa.

In that comments page of the TAMUSIC cover, I was the sole person who commented the lack of creativity, also noting that since a lot of people seem to be praising you (TAM), I’m probably disillusioned. Of course I read this post a long while back before seeing that youtube video but now I am very hopeful that I wasn’t the only guy to think that their blandness was completely awful. Even =Neutral=, an acoustic doujin group, strayed off the original tune of some songs, i.e The Primal Scene of Japan The Girl Saw while TAM is like a carbon copy of Nagisa.

Ah and I heard your 3 samplers. Not what I would keep in my music library to be honest.
