The Abandoned 18 Year-old Musical Prodigy | Kanaria

[@Sedkitgar]

All this time, I thought he was a famous old producer. Glad, he found himself as vtuber to relax a little bit. Music Industry is crazy right now. Great documentary.

[@Yiman]

thanks!! yeah me and majority of the internet thought he was a middle aged ojisan this whole time😅 the plot twist is real!

[@Astra7Light]

For more context, yes Identity is made for a cup noodle advertisement, and that is a collab between cup noodle and a MIKU GACHA GAME btw, alongside Blue Paint (kujira), Salamander (Deco*27), Cosmo Spice (Pinnocchino-p) and Cup Noodle Prohibition (Mitchie M). He really made a song promoting cup noodle this good. He made a song about the collaboration between Project Sekai and Cup Noodles specifically the Plain Flavor and he made this.

[@amaiacalliope]

hold on, SALAMANDER WAS CREATED FOR CUP NOODLE??? jesus christ

[@Yiman]

the more you know! thanks for that extra context

[@YourAverageLoser763]

@@amaiacalliope YEAH, all the cup noodle songs go so weirdly hard for no reason (also have some of the funner charts in the game fr)

Honestly, as someone who's young and loves making music, Kanaria really is one of my BIGGEST inspirations. Man, Kanaria NEVER misses!

[@otsukareboku]

Man I didn't know he went through a lot. It's not just talent at play here, there's sheer determination to pursue his passion and it's not something that everyone can pull off.

[@mayuravirus6134]

Now there is even younger than Kanaria his name is Azari i'm pretty sure everyone here heard of his songs also he started creating music when he was 16 he is 19 now

[@VGhlIExhZHkgd2hvIEtub3dz]

come on now let's not turn this into an age race, just as many young money out there as other hardworking talents

[@saif-gv6gl]

Nah, I thought that Ado was an outlier. It turned out that our generation is really starting to pump out some good music lol

[@frostyclouded]

siinamota started at 14, orangestar started at 15 and n-buna at 16 iirc? there are a lot of young vocaloid producers for sure

[@VGhlIExhZHkgd2hvIEtub3dz]

@@saif-gv6gl tbf Ado still stands out more so in the sense of her vocal delivery, she's writing and learning the guitar more so that's exciting to see

omg no way i didnt know Azari was young too, finding out Kanaria is young was already a shock

he carried the covid era of all things vtuber/vocaloid music🔥 as a hoshiyomi, his collab songs with suisei have always been rotation

[@izora_chan]

​@@Yiman exactly!! It's a little sad that he isn't as popular as he used to be, but that's a good thing. He can finally have some breathing room. (His music now has an overall more lofi vibe to it and I'm all here for it!!) I just hope dude lives a happy life.

[@-pine4342]

I have always liked Kanaria's songs, but I like him even more after writing my school assignment about Vocaloid, and I needed to do research about him 4 months ago! His background and music style really shocked me. It made me realize how crazy he is as a musician. When he dropped Never Fiction, it immediately became my favorite song, too. It surprised me when he suddenly uploaded a streaming waiting room. After that first stream, my Kanaria addiction era began. I watched every stream he did live, I drew Kanaria FA, and I kept singing Kanaria songs in karaoke. He is that life-changing for me. Kanaria is really a human being, his totsu yesterday full of funny happy and sad feelings. He can feel many emotions too, he is not some robot or something. He can feel happy when he meets his good friend, he can get annoyed and scared too. He is someone who needs a place to ramble about his problem, too... I will continue to pursuing this (just started) oshikatsu of mine lmao!

[@honsuaman8743]

man, you are so advanced in Japanese! You must be at Calli levels right now

[@MicyPie]

**nods head furiously**

[@Yiman]

yup that is why streaming for him was sucha good move! we are able to see many new sides of him and from that more people are able to relate to him!

[@perfectheart9057]

thank you so much for making this video!! ive never seen any videos like this about kanaria, and i never knew his backstory before he started making music. this is a great video, keep up the good work!!

[@choochooimlou]

Ado. 3DS. Kanaria. 3DS. Brb gonna buy my nieces 3DS for christmas.

[@Yiman]

[@meeeeeeeeeeeeeewi]

as someone who genuinely adores Kanaria, this just made me respect and look up to him even more, he's so amazing ♡

[@sharpnelshots]

I really got into Kanaria after King and I was amazed that it was an 18 year old that made that song! Imagine if he and Ado collab it would be something to think about Love the video!

[@MegumiHiranooooo]

He did collab with her! The song domestic violence on her album Kyougen was produced by KANARIA.

[@VGhlIExhZHkgd2hvIEtub3dz]

@@JTG073. Their writing was really unique, it's a shame I haven't heard their names in typical convos, almost as if there's a sentiment that vocaloid music was created in a vacuum rather than organically evolved from so many angles

that Sui-chan's "he wasn't AI" is so real! I remember, once I first saw his YT channel I have dropped it wery soon, since II thought it was another AI channel!😂😂Seriously, my man is speaking so soft and evenly that you doubt his voice to be human since you can't see his face😅😅What a man, what a legend!

[@Yiman]

haha what i would pay just to sit in on one of those suisei x kanaria recording sessions!!

[@honsuaman8743]

@Yiman no, I was never on one of them, I have never said that. I was watching a normal Kanaria stream, where he was writing music, he was speaking evenly calmly and I doubted if it is a human voice

[@hiata99]

Thank you for sum this up, i didn't know that kanaria was this young

i found a reddit thread from like 5 years ago titled "who the f is kanaria!?!?" they were probably a teen at the time, and people knew them for king, but they were still considered a young, up and coming vocalsynth producer. i'm glad they've come so far.
