World Domination [w/ Blu-ray, Limited Edition / Type A]BAND-MAIDBAND-MAID's most hardrock album
Probably their best album when it comes to the selection of songs. When it comes to the mixing & mastering, that's a different story. The details (from the guitars to the drums) are not that clear. It's almost as if they just cranked up the volume and said "That's it. No one is going to listen to these songs with audiophile headphones". The concert in the Blu-ray actually has better mixing that I usually just listen to those songs instead. I really wanna give this 5 stars because I like the hard-rock songs, but the mixing & mastering in the CD was just so disappointing.

[Air Dynamic Series] audio-technica ATH-AD900XAccessoryNow Enjoying Music that I Didn't Like
These pair of headphones have opened my ears to a wider genre of music. What I thought to be songs that were poorly mixed & mastered turned out to be properly mixed songs. No wonder those songs were topping the Japanese charts. As expected from Audio-Technica, the details are crisp & clear. I am actually hearing new stuff on songs that I have listened to hundreds of times before. The soundstage is also wide. If you're a fan of Audio-Technica headphones & earphones, and you want to hear more bass that's detailed & you think that other open-back headphones have too much bass, then I suggest you give the ATH-AD900x a try.

Daydream [Regular Edition]AimerOne of Aimer's Best Mixed Albums
After hearing Aimer perform live, I knew I just had to buy one of her albums & listen to her other songs. The songs in the album are mostly collaborations with other artistes. Aside from Aimer's vocals which absolutely nails down the rock songs in this album, the details in all songs are superb. This is definitely one of the best mixed albums I have listened to. If you're new to listening to Aimer songs, and you want to hear her sing a variety of song genre, then go listen to her Daydream album.

ONE / Hana no Uta / Rokutosei no Yoru Magic Blue ver. [Regular Edition]AimerAimer & agehasprings
I think 'ONE' was the start of the Aimer's pop/dance songs. This version of Rokutosei no Yoru is just too good. The original was perfect and I can't believe they were able to improve it. Props to Aimer and the guys & girls at 'agehasprings' for coming up with this arrangement and mixing. 'Ito', being a classic Japanese song, has had numerous artistes cover it. The backing track on this one might perhaps be the best one among them. Again, 'agehasprings' did a superb job on the arrangement & mixing of this cover.

Aimer special concert with Slovakia Kokuritsu Hoso Kokyo Gakudan "ARIA STRINGS" [Blu-ray+CD / Limited Edition]AimerORCHESTRA!!!
Aimer together with an orchestra, what more can you ask for? I love how they started with 'Yakou Ressha', since I feel like that's one of her underrated songs, since it was not usually talked about online. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that I was not able to go to Japan to listen to this live.

5th Anniversary Best [w/ DVD, Limited Edition / Type A]Leo IeiriBlind Buy - Not Disappointed
I actually bought this after hearing her song in "Aishitetatte, Himitsu wa Aru". Truth be told, I have not heard her other songs before buying this album. After listening to the songs, I can say that I was not disappointed.
