What are you into? I can upload any album from my library to MEGA or Zippyshare for you.

Aren't these threads basically just an outpost of /mu/? What's "otaku culture" about random noise rock and artfag bands?

>>12791061
You could say the same thing about the train thread and tea threads, that they belong on /n/ and /ck/ respectively. There are certainly music otaku, and I'm sure they would rather discuss Japanese music on /jp/ than a horrible board like /mu/.

One of my fav japrock albums - very dense, upbeat, sometimes melancholic, noisy rock with a power pop vibe.

I was wondering if I should make another thread for my request but I guess this topic is enough.

I'm looking for a special style of music: the J-pop/Metal style. I've heard about it via BABYMETAL but also via the opening of WataMote (which kicks ass).
Do you have any suggestions that could match this style?

Hey, does anybody know what people in Japan use for cataloguing their music? I normally rely on MusicBrainz or Discogs, but their listings for Japanese music suck hard.

Could please someone tell me the name of the album which has a cover where there is a big eye raw-drawed and some psychedelic stuff around it? I discover it in one of these threads I remember, it was a few moths ago, I just heard one or two songs, but it was awesome

I somehow really got into Japanese noise music in the past year. I don't know how this happened but I'm having a lot of fun listening to Hanatarash and The Gerogerigegege, even though it shouldn't really be enjoyable.

>>12799816
This is me, but with Maki Asakawa, Tokyo Kid Brothers, the Blue Hearts and Kazuki Tomokawa thrown in. Maybe The Gerogerigegege thrown in, haven't decided if I like them as a novelty or not yet.

Would kill for more stuff like early Oomori Seiko.

I can recommend KT's first album over Eureka, Amplifier Worship over Heavy rocks, any Yura Yura Teikoku album featuring Kurihara over Sunset Notes and a different Rallizes concert from 1977 in place of the one on 77 live, namely a set from august instead of march that most people probably haven't heard in its entirety, it has more variety to it as well as a higher fidelity, I can provide you with it if you're interested (sample of said set https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxOZUseg5OI)

Hmm, another anon says Eureka is a great album, I've heard Amplifier Worship, but thanks for the YYT rec (Michio Kurihara I've been interested in for a while now so it'd be good to hear him both solo and as a session guy), will put it on the same day as Sunset Notes.

>>12816729
>Hmm, another anon says Eureka is a great album
That was me ha. It's all opinions but I honestly prefer Eureka a lot over their debut.

The first two tracks are really good, but the rest is dull (except maybe "The Sea"), whereas on Eureka there are like two dull songs and the rest is gold. The title track is probably their best song.

Also you should check out their latest release. A lot poppier, less shoegazey.

By the way, some of his live shows have been uploaded onto Jpopsuki. So far there are two P-Model DVDs and three Hirasawa DVDs, most likely more to come in the future. I could give you invites if you don't have accounts and are interested. Holiday freeleech should be starting soon too, so... now is a good time!

I really like Hirasawa's early raw stuff

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYz_K4zlS7c

>>12818319
It is pretty neat. I do wish there were more recordings of Mandrake. There is one unofficial one I found over at niconico, but that's about it. I always like daydreaming about what Hirasawa was like during those days, besides how he had long hair. Early P-Model videos are fun to watch for the same reason.

For any fans of math rock, https://feckingbahamas.bandcamp.com/album/i-japan is a free compilation album with 21 bands.

Check out Passepied!
Great upbeat song writing and the singer has a cute voice to boot!

I've had a playlist following this theme going for about a year and it's up to 8h now, only real rule is to keep the noise/ambient interludes under 5 min. YT doesn't have the specific interlude tracks though so thees are the closest equivalents I could find

New Especia single. It's basically a straight up disco song.

If there's any justice in the world they'll have a ton of success.

>>12830417
Oh, you mean the one that was included in the Boxset they released in September? I thought you meant something more recent.

I like old j-pop and genuinely like disco and old soul/r&b music and shit.

I like Especia because the music itself is really good/well made and because it's not really vaporwave in anything other than aesthetic (vaporwave fucking sucks).

Forgot to say, Melt Banana is a tight choice. You can even still find copies of Fetch on vinyl, which is really neat.

>>12791447
Total ass. Essentially from Penalty Life on it's been about rehashing their old songs with new verses/lyrics. An example:

One Life (1998)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtDhGuEGgyc

Scarecrow (2007)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUcMyAzt2Ck

Sadly, right now they're getting the fame they worked so hard for in the 90s for the crappy songs written now.

Found this fun electronic dream/psych pop band.
https://virginbabylonrecords.bandcamp.com/album/fringe-popcical

mostly instrumental stuff like Mouse on the Keys, Jizue and kashiwa daisuke

the only vocal artist i really like (love) is yanagi nagi, and especially her older stuff.

Dunno why, but her voice is so buttery smooth and soothing, unlike most other japanese female vocals (to me). are there any other artist with a similar vocal pitch?

Can I also ask for an invite? If not, during the freeleech, can I request of you (or anyone) the ¥EN Records Box Set? I've been obsessed with YMO and their offshoots for the past year or so. They've produced possibly the greatest technopop/kayopop synthesizer music ever. An overlooked secret, ripped by crappy vaporwave, plunderphonics and leftfield-revivalist trends of now.

Cannot help but feel that the female artists back were more talented when it came to raw vocal strength/talent.

I have an chinese aunt that always listens to these chinese and japanese ballads from the 70-90's

I knew Flower Dance from Osu but never bothered to look into him more until now. Wish I hadn't waited as this is some great stuff.

I'm going to be straight with you guys. I don't listen to many japanese artists. Nujabes, Uyama Hiroto, Shima33, etc.

But I have been getting in to a lot of english 80's new wave/synthpop stuff. Are there any good japanese bands/artists who do that sort of stuff? Or anyone else similar to Nujabes/Uyama/Nomak, who preferably aren't dead or take a million years to release a new album.
