Last month, I translated the first track on World Pulse, Way of Wonderful Suicide, and as with that one, no one has uploaded Pulse to Youtube. You can support Kairo by purchasing the album (or song) on iTunes.

You can listen to demos of the songs in the soundcloud embed. The song translated here is heard from 6:15 to 7:43.
Thanks, Hyperone for uploading this to Youtube :)

I found an interesting, either coincidence or reference. The Japanese movie "Pulse", original title Kairo, has in Japanese the same name as the band, which means circuit, and of course the English title being the same as this song. Then there's the fact that it's about suicides linked to an internet webcam, and there's a posibility that connects with some other songs on World Pulse, "Way of Wonderful Suicide" and "Hack".


EDIT:

Seems no one has uploaded it as of the entrance of 2015. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to find this on Youtube? Kairo and pulse both refer to the movie, so having them in the same query finds nothing related to Kairo.

On another note, 556t tweeted about the movie called Kairo, Pulse in English, and when I tweeted that when I first saw the song Pulse I thought it was a reference to it, she favorited the tweet.

A song by another band than 回路-kairo-?? The title of this song is, from what I can tell, an old pronunciation of the word "blue" (青), which can also mean "green". I decided to leave the title as the pronunciation instead of translating it, because both meanings are used in the song. _____ 漢字 ローマ字 英語 誇りにあふれた人生の途中で Hokori ni afureta jinsei no tochuu de In the middle of life, overflowing with pride 埃にまみれた夢を追いかける Hokori ni mamireta yume wo oikakeru Following one's dreams, being smeared in the dust 私たちは自然の驚異です Watashitachi ha shizen no kyoui desu We are a miracle of nature 憧れを餌に生きる Akogare wo esa ni ikiru We live longing for prey 満足を誰かと分かち合っていたり Manzoku wo dareka to wakachiatteitari Sharing satisfaction with someb

Song Translation Index: 回路-kairo- / 556t

This list includes all songs by 回路-kairo- or 556t that I've been able to find. Some albums on this list have missing tracks. That's either because the song isn't by 回路-kairo- or 556t, or it appears on a different album on this list. Compiling this list, I felt I got a good look at part of the Touhou community, and especially those with an interest in 回路-kairo-. So I thought I'd just give a shoutout to all the Youtube channels and all the other translators I've linked to: Youtube: hamucomcity , ~MariMari~ , Kyara Frost , Crystal Memories , Marisa Nya , BurstDigiSoul , The Little Pagoda , Undefined Fantastic Channel , Music of Gensokyo / 幻想郷の音楽 , RevnaVarea , 0P2C , ParasiteTeromea , hyperone3232 , TheHakurouTengu , PatchyFTW , Shaya Kagi , Eiki Shiki , FantasyGensokyo , Anjuu Miko , iapprovelolis , 茶碗蒸 , 765sakuya , Ammy / エイミー , Monochro Monoe , Gensokyo1106 , GreenwichInTheSky , Patchouli Knowledge , MarlyFlowerXI , HikariNoNanaki , Reimu Hakurei , DoujinMusi
