Posted by Wikidkid101 on 01.04.2013, 03:49 PM: I may not understand what is being said, but none the less I really enjoy the music. Definately something I could get into!

Posted by Mush on 01.04.2013, 05:43 PM: I'm huge Utada Hikaru fan, but she's quite well-known I think, so I probably don't have to provide any links. I'll have to check out Shiina Ringo!

Posted by Orphic Okapi on 01.04.2013, 10:17 PM: Susumu Hirasawa is amazing! I'm really only familiar with his soundtracks though (he did a bunch of stuff with Satoshi Kon), so I'll have to look into his other material.

Posted by husky51 on 01.05.2013, 04:48 AM: I just prefer music that isn't being screamed or yelled at me... Same reason that I dislike a lot of modern American music. I prefer music that I can listen to the lyrics and sing along with if I choose... like country or folk songs... |
Posted by Orphic Okapi on 01.05.2013, 07:50 AM: Shiina is not for everyone. Especially if you don't like being screamed at. To each his own. I like a lot of country and folk, too.

Posted by Orphic Okapi on 01.06.2013, 05:16 AM: Oh my god, I'd never seen that Ponponpon video before. That is the most, um, intensely Japanese thing I have ever witnessed.

Posted by fenkashi on 01.06.2013, 06:20 AM: @Mush, love the Radwimps. Such warm, gentle vocals ^^
|
Posted by Orphic Okapi on 01.06.2013, 07:42 AM: Thanks for the mega-post. I liked pretty much all of the stuff you linked to. Out of curiosity, is this the same Salyu? Because apparently she got super experimental and awesome. Or maybe "salyu x salyu" is someone different.

Posted by fenkashi on 01.06.2013, 08:40 AM: Always happy to share the love ^^
|
Posted by Orphic Okapi on 01.06.2013, 09:30 AM: Okay, I absolutely LOVED the World's End Girlfriend one (well, the first ten minutes of it at least, I haven't listened to the rest yet) and the Midori Hirano song. I will definitely be looking into those two artists. Both are right up my alley.

Posted by Mush on 01.06.2013, 02:00 PM: @saviour -- I often listen to music while I work or study. I find it less distracting than the sound of my own thoughts. If I find something I like online, I'll bookmark it. If it's on the radio, I usually forget it until I hear it again somewhere else. But either way, I rarely just listen to music without doing anything else at all.

Posted by foreignfilmfreak on 01.06.2013, 08:01 PM: I probably differ from the majority of you in what type of Japanese music suits me. XD Actually, most of the stuff I like, not even my Japanese friends have heard of (but they also find it kind of dark.. yet they seem amazed I know these bands).
