The release of Heartsnative has been out for some time now and it was only recently I got my hands on it since I bundled it with my other cd loots as mentioned in my last loots from last year post. I’m embarrassed to say, this is my first official Miku album every since I’ve became a Miku addict or fanboy should I say. With the continuous released of so many Miku albums where many are collaboration works with famous artists and mixes, we do get a handful of varieties in genre to choose from . While most tracks sounds similar, each is unique in it’s way and that’s where your preference comes in.

The collaboration work with MOSAIC.WAV is the reason why I bought this album, making it my first Miku album.

MOSAIC.WAV has been one of my favourite artists for very a long time ever since I got into Sumomomo Momomo. They did the OP tracks for the series and I couldn’t help but feel the energy and rhythm each time I hear it over and over again. A little background about them incase your not familiar. They are currently one of the top akiba-pop style artists where many of their music are used in anime and games. The leading vocal singer is mi~ko and her crazy voice is the reason why I like her very much. It’s crazily addictive. xD

So with the work by MOSAIC.WAV and Kamo Tsuruta (don’t really know too much about him), the album still retains that Miku vibe while adding a bit of akiba-pop style in it. It’s quite addictive when you start getting through the tracks and feeling the vibe. The sad part is there’s only a total of 7 tracks but the upside from what I can think of is each track goes for at least 5 mins long so your still getting your moneys worth.

Tracklist:

1. みんなみくみくにしてあげる♪
2. ***にできたかな
3. 電気の恋人-I am Programmer’s Song-/*VL-3901mkll*/
4. server error
5. キミは何テラバイト?～Chorus of 6 Vocaloids～
6. HATSUNEtive
7. Mimic me.

Here are a few samples you can enjoy

(More sample can be found under the same uploader)

In regards to the extra contents included with the album, it has plenty.

Giving the low down, they include:

• The cardboard illustration of the cover.
• A 40-page booklet with illustrations, interviews, lyrics and other notes.
• An album jacket and
• 8  jacket covers

I find the 40-page booklet and the 8 jacket covers are the 2 worthy items included. The booklet illustrations inside are the same in what you get on the jacket covers so there’s not much difference from there.

Having a look at the jacket covers, my favourite one will have to be the bottom left. I really like the artwork  and it’s just really eye-catching overall. The best thing about multiple jacket covers is, you can swap them out when you want a change. It makes you feel like you have a new album or a fresh one in my opinion. xD

The jacket covers matches up the illustration from behind. :)

Still available at cdjapan, do grab yourself a copy if your a miku lover. The music is great and the samples above just doesn’t get you into that vibe until your breezing through each track in one go. Be aware, the Regular edition only contains the album while the Limited contains everything you see here. It’s only a couple of bucks extra and I doubt you will be thinking about those couple of bucks when you have it in your hands. :D
