About Me
I'm a relatively ordinary Canadian guy who likes Nico Nico Douga medleys. I will go as far as possible to get proper lyrics for songs, to the point where I may try and translate something myself (with help). I may also have a tendency to take on HUGE projects without really knowing what I'm getting myself into (see the other sections below). That's pretty much it. I'm here, I'm pumped, and I'm ready to go!!
Update
Since there's been such a long time with little to no activity on this wiki from me, I wanted to explain about what's been going on, especially in the last few months since Kasoku was completed.
The first major reason for my inactivity here, as I've said before, is grad school - it definitely takes up a lot of time and effort. I may be finished up with that over the next few months, or I may be continuing my studies this coming fall - I'll hopefully be finding that out in a few days.
The second major reason for my inactivity here is a much more recent update. I've started to try out voice acting as a hobby, and it's been so much fun! I've gotten to know so many talented people because of it, and it's probably the most social I've been online... ever! I made my proper voice acting debut two weeks ago in a fandub of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc by Sonora Productions under my medley username, berg8793, and I'm hosting a Kirby-related voice acting project that's been in the works since September 2016 and will finally be released sometime in May 2017. So, if you were ever curious as to what my voice sounds like... now you'll know, I guess.
While I do still have some medley ideas kicking around in my head, and I certainly want to be as active on this wiki now as I was a few years ago, sadly I can't be as involved in the Niconico medley scene. Please don't think of this as a full-blown departure from this community - think of it as a hiatus.
If you want to ask me more about this stuff, feel free to leave a note on my talk page or talk to me on the forums.
Arranging Stuff
Medleys
- My first medley, Nico Nico Douga e no Omaju: http://soundcloud.com/#berg8793/nico-nico-douga-medley
- I got to make an entry for Kakenukeru Medley Collaboration IV!! My entry is included in the Red course. You can hear the entry by itself here: http://soundcloud.com/berg8793/kakenukeru-medley-collaboration-iv-entry
- My second medley, Nico Nico Kasoku Medley, is an original songs medley that expands on a medley concept from 2008 while also breaking a couple of medley records in the process.
- I was invited to take part in Kakenukeru Medley Collaboration Final!! I made track lists for two entries - one for the Modern version (with as many one-note and two-note transitions as I could fit) and one for the Classical version (which is less chaotic and more on par with my KMCIV entry). Due to lots of real-life events and issues, I was unable to do proper arranging for these entries; however, other medley composers have kindly stepped up to do the arranging for me. My Modern entry will be arranged by Full Ken, who is best known for his video game medleys and the Nico Nico ∞ Assemble series, and my Classical entry will be arranged by nk.
- The track lists for these entries will be posted here.

Stuff that I want to do
- Now that I have more than three years' worth of experience with audio editing and mixing, I'd like to try redoing my original songs version of Konton Jiyuusou so it sounds better. Whether I have the time for that right now is another matter.
Currently Working On...
- I'm collaborating with a Japanese medley composer, Chronomile, to make a new medley. I have the track list for my part figured out, I just need to get the hang of composing in Reaper. So far, things are going very well.
- Cleaning up spam on the wiki! Spammers beware, 'cause I'm after you!
Stuff that I should get back to at some point in the future
- Creating all wanted song pages with more than 40 links.
- Making new medley pages, with more focus on composer sections that have little to no medley pages created. Examples include Kiva, Wasabou and Himanattsu, among others.
Notes when creating song pages
- This guy appears to have uploaded all the Touhou soundtracks on NND, and in high quality, too! In fact, a number of people have done this.
- Lyrics for iDOLM@STER songs can be found easily on project-imas.wiki; however, finding videos for M@STER versions of songs to match the lyrics will usually be a pain in the neck, due to copyright shenanigans.
