You have 10 seconds to name any decent Japanese hip hop that isn't just instrumental like Nujabes and DJ Krush.

(Protip: You can't)

Anyone got some other good artists similar to Ichiko Aoba? Her music is so perfect for a rainy day, I love it. I've already got Ai Aso, she kinda reminds me of her.

>>54051445

Me. I really like their album with Secai as well.

Rec me an album that gives a Tokyo feel. It's hard to describe but once you listen to it you'll know. Something like Bjork's "Debut".

>>54051424

Thanks, I'm really liking this.

>>54051511
Most people prefer Shining on Graveposts, it's their following release. You should probably check that out too, it's very similar

>>54051539

Thanks, I will.

>>54051504
How is Debut Tokyo-like? I suppose Fantastic Plastic Machine's F.P.M is what I'd associate Tokyo with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlYwWfpBDAE&ab_channel=hitandaway

>>54051561
Tokyo, not neo-Tokyo. All sunny and summery, with beautiful piano melodies.

>>54051504
Never been to tokyo but maybe kazemachi roman?

I live about three hours from Tokyo, you're both right

>>54051905

Sorry for being so invasive, I'm just curious.

>>54051905
FPM poster here, I live an hour away myself. Kansaifag?

>>54051876
Similar in style, but I think Tricot's a little more energetic.

>>54051965
I live in northern Japan. I got a job teaching English right after I graduated, I'm American.

>>54052027
Nah, Tohoku fag :(

Has anyone seen the doc, Live From Tokyo yet?
Is it good?

Lately, I've been falling in love with this album https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y85NmRlvgZE Any albums similar to this one?

OGRE YOU ASSHOLE is the best band in Japan right now. Prove me wrong.

>>54054369
Their s/t i think? The cover was some kind of deer head or something.

>>54051216
Listened to this band for the first time right now. Very impressed.

>>54054966
I guess it's time I get around to doing it too. Everyone seems to love them, but that's normal considering that they're japanese girls with guitars and this is /mu/

Just listened to all of Jagatara's studio albums, the fuck do I do now? Any other Japanese Punk-funk bands?

>>54054997
Daisuck & Prostitute, EP-4, Totsuzen Danball, Boys Boys, the list can go on....
my friend sam should know much more about this than me, perhaps you could ask him? i hope he doesn't mind me sending you his way pls be nice

>>54054889
uhhh are you sure you listened to the right band
you might have listened to Toe instead

>>54055358
Do I mention that someone from a image board created for discussing Lithuanian leather crafting referred me to them or do I remain anonymous?

>>54055708
Oh yeah my bad, I did listen to Ling Tosite Sigure's debut album and I didn't quite like it, considering listening to I'mperfect next.

What's their best in your opinion?

>>54055926
you can say brofessoroak or cameron sent you. just be nice thanks

Also it wasn't toe that i had listened to, it was a japanese instrumental post-rock band.

>>54056050
Thanks again! I'll use my trip and make more of these threads from now on. This board could use more organized general discussion threads.

>>54055973
Either i'mperfect or just a moment

>>54056268
Cool, thanks.
[spoiler]I just realized that the Psycho-Pass OP song is on I'mperfect and I think I kind of liked that so I'll check out that record[/spoiler].

So.. Toe?? Mono??

What are the essential Jpop albums I should listen to?

>>54056030
I'll check them out.
B-but only because she said so.

>>54056489
Go write that essay man.
Also Gaseneta's more of a punk rock act, don't you think? Kind of like this guy. Not that they're not GOAT but I'm looking for stuff along the vein of that album.

Best Japanese producers? I love Daisuke Tanabe and Ametsub and I need more.

What do you guys think of OOIOO? I recently downloaded/listened to pic related because Wayne Coyne listed it as one of his favorite albums, but I wasn't too impressed with it. Do they have better albums or should I try a relisten?

Boris, toe, Midori, X Japan, Mono, World's End Girlfriend, Merzbow, The Gerogerigegege, Gallhammer.

Only these are good, the rest of the shit that comes out of Japan is dogshit

>>54055973
I'd vote Inspiration is Dead or still a Sigure Virgin? but they're all pretty enjoyable. i'mperfect is probably the most accessible, and just A moment probably has the best songs (just has A few dud moments).

What is the best Pillows album?

I'm at a four way tie with Runners High, Happy Bivouac, Trial, and Kool Spice.
