Grasshopper Spring slaps so hard, I can hardly believe it. It sounds like a whole bunch of grasshoppers just woke up from hibernation, dusted off their instruments, and threw the mother of all hoedowns amongst the sweet spring grasses. All in all, magnificent sequel!
The contrast between the music and the EXTRAORDINARILY obnoxious and intrusive ads prefacing the music is SO tonally dissonant -it is the difference between witnessing genuine art, beauty, and inspiration......and the sick perversion of those things. The beauty and peacefulness of this piece calls such attention to how horrible the ads are.
I completely agree (and have adblock on my computer) but the ads are by far my biggest source of financial support, so I have to have them on. Glad you enjoy the music though! (PS if you're using a computer I recommend uBlock Origin)
I was looking for music for work. I read this comment and it makes me sceptical. I feel like I woudn't enjoy it. I keep wanting to change the music but then I realise the music brings the perfect mood, something I never felt. It is for me.
You know, sometimes youtube sends you down an absolutely insane rabbit hole. And sometimes, youtube gets it juuust right. This is wacky, funny, interesting, cute, bouncy and I am 1000% here for it.
This is the sort of music to take a walk to. Just put on your earbuds or headphones and walk for an hour or two around town while listening to these albums. There’s something special about exploring the area where you live while listening to music. Makes it feel like you’re on an adventure.
Sure Spotify is often more convenient than UA-cam, but I found some real Gems here, a lot of obscure stuff that just vibes with me completely. Somehow I rarely find that on the other platform.
Do you have any particular key words or tags that you use to find new music? I used to use soundcloud in the early 2010s to find niche music like this, but I have trouble finding new music in the spotify era too.
I love bugs and I love lofi but this is something more, it's truly unique and special and brings me a joy and peace that I haven't felt from music in so long! 🐝🐛🦗 💚 Love both albums!
I'm so happy! I love entomongaku and listen to it all the time, so I naturally clicked on this video mistaking it for the first album. What a treat! Thank you!
I cannot convey how "under the carpet" Under the Carpet sounds in words. I am just transported *there* with the tiny beetles rummaging around the forest of threads and discarded hairs for some scrap of organic matter to munch upon.
absolutely delightful album. all the charm of mort garson's _mother earth's plantasia_ in a modern and unmistakably personal view. keep doing what you like. i'll be thrilled to see the things you do.
Butterfly Fountain sounds like it could be in a video game! think of a Breath of the Wild-type Zelda open world dealio, someplace bright and warm with a waterfall over rocks, with your character bouncing along through the grass and enjoying the scenery. That's what I like to imagine. ☀✨
This is such a wonderful album, perfect for bugging out on a Monday morning. It puts a smile on my face and a grasshopper's spring in my step. Thank you for sharing these auditory delights with the world!
I am just repeating what others have said but this album is so unique and a delight. Great for studying but also on its own merits for the soundscape you create. Thank you for making these and I'm sure I'm not the only one hoping for a vinyl release!
I'm glad this album got in my recommendation! The cover art is so beautiful which gives off the feeling of something fresh- something open to me, the sounds in the songs feel so “new”, and the vivid combinations of all these various new kinds of sounds in such a untouched and unheard kinds of patterns, its- it's just fantastic!! I feel I'm being a bit over-dramatic but all these emotions that I feel, I really want to express them! I'm definitely going to check out the other works of yours. I really hope your works reach out to more people :D
I am Steve in a japanese Garden right now - oh look, there is a Pikmin dancing with a Mogry around a great Crystal that wards off Miasma! Brilliant creation.
Gosh, I ADORE these albums..they're simply beautiful. I love the Thorax and Mandible track, and Tiaozao.. both albums bring me so much joy, thank you for making these これらをありがとう
These Albums are perfect for playing Stardew Valley! If you're kinda tired of the game music and wanna switch it up this album and the first one have such similar vibes!!!
As I sit here amidst the tall blades of grass in my middle age, I can't help but reminisce about my youthful days as a spry grasshopper. Those were the times when the world was an endless expanse of green, and the sun kissed our backs with warmth. I remember when a friend put on Entomongaku II. It was the first time I heard music that resonated with the rhythm of my hop, inspiring me to explore the world beyond my leafy haven. The harmonious buzz of crickets, the rustling of leaves, and the gentle hum of the wind in the grass blades were all encapsulated in that album. It became the soundtrack to my adventures and the lullaby to my restless nights, reminding me of the beauty that exists even in the smallest corners of this vast meadow. Those were the days when I danced to the music of life, and that album remains a cherished treasure in the chirping symphony of my memories.
Listen folks, I gotta tell ya, Salvia Divinorum, it's tremendous, it's really tremendous. People are saying, "Donald, what's Salvia Divinorum?" Well let me tell you, it's a powerful plant, and I mean powerful. It's got these leaves, and when you smoke them, whoa boy, you're in for a ride. Believe me, I've heard some stories about people taking Salvia Divinorum, and let me tell you, they're incredible stories. They say that it takes you to another world, that you see things that you can't even imagine. Some people say it's like being in a dream, but better. And I gotta tell ya, that sounds pretty good to me. Now listen, I'm not saying you should go out and try Salvia Divinorum. That's up to you, folks. But what I am saying is that this is a plant that's worth learning more about. It's got a long history of use in traditional medicine, and some people say it can even help with certain health conditions. So let me just say, Salvia Divinorum, it's a winner. It's a real winner. And I think we should all be paying more attention to it.
Listen, fat, DON'T SMOKE SALVIA! I was-one time I uh... the diaper-well, we didn't know what we were doing, heh, and uhhh... But you probably already know how that stuff goes, folks. Anyway, that's how I ended up facedown in a big vat o' chili on the day-night, scuse me-I was inaugurated as President. Is-it-was cause I was doin' somethin' I wasn't supposed to, heheh... Lemme tell ya, jack, I got... I got beautiful flowing golden hair on my legs, and when I get high I, uh, just get in the pool and watch it flow in the water for hours. 'Til my skin sags down about near to where it just plain falls off, heheh... I may not be in the, uhhh, in the best shape, but I'm confident in my ability to perform the functions of my duty, uhh... do the best job I can at my job as the-your President. What's that smell? Anyone here smell brisket? Who's smokin' a brisket? Man, I tell ya, that's a lot more healthier thing for, uh, for you to smoke than that salvia stuff, jack. Lemme get some o' that, heh.
This and the last album gets super hyped up in my group chat that my friends and I have. So excited to hear your amazing work! I also played Entomongaku at the cafe I work at and it was so peaceful
Stumbled across this and thought it was a tutorial on drawing the flowers and cricket but pleasantly surprised by this. My cat is sitting on table across from me and was grooming away, took a pause for a few minutes to look over my way and listening now. Wonder what he hears beneath all this or in addition to this…He’s not distressed just chilling.
Literally listen to this and the first album all the time to help me sleep, they're amazing! I'm not well versed enough in music to give good feedback but I really enjoy the energy and vibes of the music here :]
13 min in I’m jamming so hard. It’s helps melt away your problems. It’s healing. I love this. Very refreshing as well. I listen to a very wide variety of music and I can truly say this is a unique sound. I’m loving what the algorithm is doing for me. Great stuff❤ I keep editing this but this is a new fav album.
ive been trying to plan a project, listening to this wasnt a part of the planning but it kickstarted the inspiration for it, hit my brain and memories in the perfect way to give me ideas for the story of the stop motion now im off to the watercolors
great, entomongaku was how i discovered u and became a fan instantly so watching a part II is incredible, youre the artist im playing the most so keep it up, love u, sending good vibes from here
This music definitely makes me think about the rural parts of where im from. It's rustic, has lots of ambience, and filled to the brim with bugs! Coincidence or not, you really captured the essense of finding bugs in the rural neighborhood or the nearby woods!
@@chypho yes, very much so! Grasshopper Spring I especially like, sounds like it could be a music disc in minecraft. Keep pursuing your sound, it’s fantastic
I usually just ignore the music that pops up in my recommended but the cover for Entomongaku was so intriguing I just had to listen- and I'm glad I did! I love your music and I'm making my way through all your albums.
I just got recommended this for no reason and to be honest it’s kind of slaps. Thank you for blessing me to UA-cam algorithm 👏🏼👏🏼 (along with getting bulldogs puppies)
