The Concept of Plastic Love - SiIvaGunner: King for Another Day

[@rugalbernstein5913]

Random bit of trivia: the sample for “UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT OF LOVE” actually comes from a Black Panther speech. This makes at least two times I know of that Japanese devs sampled a Black power speaker and decided to use it for video game music, and wouldn’t you know it, K actually has the other one in his source pool because it’s Wrapped in Black from Sonic Rush.

[@GrotesquePoet]

The Arranged version of Rugal Bernstein's KOF 95 boss theme has 'THE CONCEPT OF LOVE' right in the song

[@elneco4654]

@@GrotesquePoet This gives me an idea. Now that Dancing Alien Team has reunited, and they're essencially a KOF team, you could have Mars People from Metal Slug replacing one of them (possibly Popoy) and giving them access to SNK rips. Also because Latin America and SNK share a lot of history.

[@greco-romano9852]

0:26 Small detail seems to have gone un-noted so far. You can here a somewhat-feint, "Here we go!", as a transition into the song. But what you might not realize, is that this sample is the exact, "Here we go!", from the "Cory in the House" theme song. This isn't merely a tongue-and-cheek joke about Cory in the House being an anime. But actually doubles as a reference to Triple-Q's remix of the Cory in the House theme, and Plastic Love, titled, *"Cory in the Plastic Love".* This is peak rip-potential. . . . *Or I could be entirely wrong, and this is a Parappa sample.* But if not? Touché, Crystal Force, and NutellaFrenchToast. Touché.

Can I say something: Jet Set Radio's original sources make any song better, just by existing.

[@QuintinPlays]

Honestly this event has been fucking legendary, thanks to everyone that's been behind this, the artists and graphic designers, the video editors that have put countless hours into editing all this content, and of course all the talented musicians behind the arrangements/remixes/rips that have all been consistently brilliant.

[@ZeroXMachina1]

From what I hear we won’t be getting another KFAD. The idea of never getting moments like there have been and banger mashups like this is enough to bring a tear to a mans eye. I now truly understand the concept of love. 😢

[@Ghostguy693]

We might get another one if the channel hits a milestone, iirc.

[@timestmps]

Any source on that? If it's true I'm gonna cry, I don't want this to end :(

There probably won’t be one for a little while, since this one took a lot out of many people. But a few years from now I can see it making a triumphant return.
