For all of you who don't know what FictionJunction (I'm assuming most of you have heard of Yuki Kajiura by now...) is, here's a small recap:
FictionJunction is Japanese composer Yuki Kajiura’s solo project. To date, all such collaborations have consisted of a female vocalist, with Kajiura on the keyboard or the piano. Most FictionJunction songs have been featured in an anime series:
FictionJunction ASUKAVocalist: Asuka Kato
They performed “everlasting song”, an insert song from anime series Elemental Gelade. Originally sung in English, “everlasting song” was also recorded in Japanese and was released as a single (everlasting song, 2005), along with various instrumental versions.
FictionJunction KAORIVocalist: Kaori Oda - (Born May 11, 1988)
The duo performed two insert songs used in Tsubasa Chronicle, “tsubasa” (first season) and “dream scape” (second season).
FictionJunction KEIKOVocalist: Keiko Kubota - (Born December 5, 1985)
They recorded only one song, “To the City of Wind” , which was used as an insert song in episodes 19 (partially) and 21 of Tsubasa Chronicle (first season). Keiko is involved with Yuki Kajiura's Kalafina Project.
FictionJunction WAKANAVocalist: Wakana Ootaki - (Born December 10, 1984)
They have performed a song named "Where the lights are" for the original soundtrack of Fist of the North Star True Saviour Legend. They have also recorded an insert song, "Paradise Regained", for El Cazador de la Bruja OST 2. Wakana is also involved with Yuki Kajiura's Kalafina Project.
FictionJunction YUUKAVocalist: Yuuka Nanri - (Born March 13, 1984)
FictionJunction YUUKA was Kajiura’s first, longest and best-known collaboration under the FictionJunction name. They were originally called "FictionJunction featuring YUUKA", but later the "featuring" part was dropped as it made the name long

Now that the new layout and the new plastic Ongaku logo are finally in place, I'd like to have your thoughts on the new changes... Also, a big thank you to Smashing Magazine for their amazing photoshop tutorials, and great logo and visual ideas... It helped me a lot throughout this whole creative process, and I hope it paid off. I also made a couple of others logo, which I might show you later on!
